STATIC HEADSPACE-GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY

THE ONLY REFERENCE TO PROVIDE BOTH CURRENT AND THOROUGH COVERAGE OF THIS IMPORTANT ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUE

Static headspace-gas chromatography (HS-GC) is an indispensable technique for analyzing volatile organic compounds, enabling the analyst to assay a variety of sample matrices while avoiding the costly and time-consuming preparation involved with traditional GC.

Static Headspace-Gas Chromatography: Theory and Practice has long been the only reference to provide in-depth coverage of this method of analysis. The Second Edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect the most recent developments and practices, and also includes coverage of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and the purge-and-trap technique. Chapters cover:

  • Principles of static and dynamic headspace analysis, including the evolution of HS-GC methods and regulatory methods using static HS-GC
  • Basic theory of headspace analysis—physicochemical relationships, sensitivity, and the principles of multiple headspace extraction
  • HS-GC techniques—vials, cleaning, caps, sample volume, enrichment, and cryogenic techniques
  • Sample handling
  • Cryogenic HS-GC
  • Method development in HS-GC
  • Nonequilibrium static headspace analysis
  • Determination of physicochemical functions such as vapor pressures, activity coefficients, and more
  • Comprehensive and focused, Static Headspace-Gas Chromatography, Second Edition provides an excellent resource to help the reader achieve optimal chromatographic results. Practical examples with original data help readers to master determinations in a wide variety of areas, such as forensic, environmental, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications.
