ICP Emission Spectrometry: A Practical Guide

This book is very thorough in theory and application regarding the ICP-OES hence the title "A Practical Guide". This book goes into detail about the history of different component and how it affects the analysis. In addition, the author also discussed about the data acquisition and spectra correction.Everything written in this book is very hand-on, which explain little snippet of question every 10-15 pages and how to solve them. It is a well worth the investment for anyone who is new to this application, and I highly recommend it.One last note: this book offers guidance on the instrument and not sample preparation.

Best book so far on practical applications for ICP Spectrometers, well worth the money.It is loaded with ideas and tips for producing better results, and plenty of information one could only get from years of experience.

This well-written, well-organized book makes an excellent supplement for any ICP chemist, covering a plethora of information from ICP theory, instrumentation, method development, quality control, and trouble shooting. It is ideal for a straight read-through, but will also function well as a quick reference guide that should be kept with the user's guides right next to the ICP computer. Additionally, it offers pages of references to other useful ICP reading materials and data for anyone who wishes to know more about any specific topic covered in the book.
