Analytical chemistry is the study of what chemicals are present and in what amount in natural and Analytical Chemistry
artificial materials. Because these understandings are fundamental in just about every chemical
inquiry, analytical chemistry is used to obtain information, ensure safety, and solve problems in
many different chemical areas, and is essential in both theoretical and applied chemistry.
Analytical chemistry is driven by new and improved instrumentation. This collection presents a Methods and Applications
broad selection of articles on analytical chemistry, including methods of determination and
analysis as applied to pharmaceuticals, foods, proteins, and more. A

He received his PhD in chemistry, with a minor in biology, from Clarkson University in 1981 for his
d
work on fast reaction kinetics of biologically important molecules. He then went on to Brunel s a
University in England for a postdoctoral research fellowship in biophysics, where he studied the a

molecules involved with arthritis by electroptics. He recently authored a textbook on forensic
d

introduction
Chemistry is the science that studies atoms and molecules along with their prop-
erties. All matter is composed of atoms and molecules, so chemistry is all encom-
passing and is referred to as the central science because all other scientific fields
use its discoveries. Since the science of chemistry is so broad, it is normally broken
into fields or branches of specialization. The five main branches of chemistry are
analytical, inorganic, organic, physical, and biochemistry. Chemistry is an ex-
perimental science that is constantly being advanced by new discoveries. It is the
intent of this collection to present the reader with a broad spectrum of articles in
the various branches of chemistry that demonstrates key developments in these
rapidly changing fields.
Analytical chemistry is the study of which chemicals are present and in what
amount. This often involves trying to determine trace amounts of one chemical
in a complicated matrix of other chemicals. Analytical chemistry is driven by new
and improved instrumentation. Advances in mass spectrometry, chromatography,
electrophoresis, electrochemistry, biosensors, and other instruments are allowing
analytical chemists to measure smaller and smaller concentrations of chemicals
in complex mixtures. This has direct application to the fields of environmental
science, medicine, forensics, food safety, and engineering. The determination of
STRs in DNA by capillary electrophoresis, fluorescent dyes, and lasers has led to
a revolution in criminal investigation and identification in the field of forensics.
