Description
Taylor & Francis Handbook of Thin-Layer Chromatography 2003 Edition by Joseph Sherma, Bernard Fried
In this third edition, more than 40 renowned authorities introduce and update chapters on the theory, fundamentals, techniques, and instrumentation of thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC), highlighting the latest procedures and applications of TLC to 19 important compound classes and coverage of TLC applications by compound type. Easily adaptable to industrial scenarios , the Handbook of Thin-Layer Chromatography, Third Edition supports practical research strategies with extensive tables of data, offers numerous figures that illustrate techniques and chromatograms, and includes a glossary as well as a directory of equipment suppliers.
