Synopsis

Analytical chemistry, in common with other chemical fields, is an expanding subject. New methods and techniques, new research findings, new applications, alter the approach of the analyst at the bench by providing alternatives to his existing methodologies. To stay abreast of current developments and to research reported work on areas new to him, the analyst must be able to examine the potential sources of information available to him and to extract the data required. The resources that are available include reference books; reviews; journals; abstracting, indexing and bibliographic publications; and on-line databases. Analytical Literature examines all these sources and provides details of how to use them. The reader is provided with a wide selection of examples so that he may practice the techniques involved. The examples have been designed to reflect a wide variety of real-life situations, typical of those facing the analytical chemist. For the learner who does not have access to a full library of chemical literature, facsimile pages are included for the exercises. This title is part of the Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning series which provides coverage of analytical chemistry, covering basic concepts, classical methods and instrumental techniques. The learning objectives of each text are clearly identified and the student's understanding of the material is constantly challenged by self- assessment questions with reinforcing or remedial responses. The overall objective of Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning is to enable the student to select and apply appropriate methods and techniques to solve analytical problems, and to interpret the results obtained.
