Analytical Chemistry

Matthias Otto is Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the TU Bergakademie Freiberg in Germany. He was born in Dresden (Germany) and did all his studies at the University of Leipzig. In 1984 he moved to Freiberg (Germany) as a reader and was appointed full Professor there in 1987. Since that time he has taught almost all aspects of Analytical Chemistry mainly within the curricula of chemistry, applied sciences and geoecology and organizes courses in basic and advanced chemometrics.
 
Miguel Valcárcel is Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the University of Córdoba (Spain) since 1976, member of the Spanish Royal Academy of Sciences and past chairman of the Analytical Division of the Federation of European Chemical Societies (DAC-FECS) and Doctor Honoris Causa by the University of Valencia (Spain). He is author or co-author of 800 research papers and ten monographs in the frame of automation, simplification and quality of (bio)chemical measurement processes as well us analytical nanoscience and nanotecnology.

Das umfangreichste Lehrbuch, das das gesamte Fachgebiet ausführlich darstellt - für Lernende und als Referenzwerk zum Nachschlagen. Es vereint die Inhalte allgemeiner Kurse und von Einführungsveranstaltungen, behandelt die instrumentelle Analyse und komplexere Fragestellungen der analytischen Chemie in einem handlichen Band. Die 3. Auflage dieses erfolgreichen Klassikers wurde aktualisiert, präsentiert die neuesten Entwicklungen und bietet zwei komplett neue Kapitel zu brandaktuellen Themen der analytischen Nanowissenschaften und Nanotechnologie sowie zur grünen analytischen Chemie. Darüber hinaus wurden rund ein Drittel der Kapitel von neuen Autoren neu geschrieben. Das Autorenteam umfasst neun neue Autoren, die in der Lehre tätig sind und ihr Know-how zu aktuellen Themen darlegen. Für eine bessere Lernerfahrung enthält jedes Kapitel am Ende einen Fragenteil.
