Inorganic trace compounds such as heavy metals have to be identified very frequently in the analysis of food and the environment.
Using up-to-date examples, practice-oriented experts describe the detection and identification of these compounds. Readers will find in the tips and tricks valuable aids in solving their own analytical problems. The spectrum of methods covered ranges from ICP-MS and electrochemical methods to ion chromatography.
For several years Lothar Matter has conducted successful training seminars on inorganic trace analysis in food and environmental matrices for the German Chemical Society. The topics covered in this book are based on his years of experience.
