Javid Ahmad Sofi, "Principle and Application of Chromatography in Pesticide Residue Analysis"
English | ISBN: 3032183677 | 2026 | 394 pages | PDF | 10 MB
This book is exclusively structured around chromatography techniques and is unique in the market for catering to these needs. It provides a complete description of experimental methodologies in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography (GC), ion chromatography (IC), and paper chromatography. Numericals are provided along with solutions at the end of chapters. A complete theoretical description, along with all necessary equations, is included in this book. Techniques such as paper chromatography, gel permeation chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, liquid-liquid partition chromatography, adsorption chromatography, and column chromatography are discussed in a lucid manner, and their practical utilities are properly addressed. Instrumentation related to HPLC, GC, and ion chromatography is discussed with diagrams in a comprehensible fashion. Column chemistry in relation to the mobile phase is specially mentioned so that students and lab technicians engaged in laboratory workflows can benefit. Special reference to pesticide residue is made for each chromatographic technique, which will benefit food testing laboratories. Method optimization for both HPLC and GC is detailed, providing a ready reference for method development. Method validation for both HPLC and GC, with Excel spreadsheets, has been properly incorporated so that students, lab technicians, and experts from the food industry and pharmaceuticals can refer to this book for a conceptual framework.
