Product Description
Gas Chromatography (GC) is undoubtedly the most widely used technique for the separation and analysis of volatile compounds. Yet comprehensive guides to contemporary GC theory and practice are surprisingly hard to find.
Basic Gas Chromatography fills this significant void in the GC literature. Written by two well-known practitioners and educators in GC, it offers thorough coverage of the basic principles and techniques of modern gas chromatography.
Designed to serve as a primer/working reference for bench chemists and as a textbook for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, it presents the fundamentals in a straightforward and logical fashion. Theoretical issues are explained without complicated equations and derivations and always in terms of how they relate to practical operating principles. Timely, comprehensive, and accessible, Basic Gas Chromatography:
* Provides a balanced presentation of theory and practice
* Includes both capillary column and packed column chromatography
* Uses the new IUPAC terms throughout, cross-referenced to traditional terms and symbols
* Offers a wealth of helpful hints, step-by-step guidelines, and trouble-shooting tips
* Briefly covers GC-MS, headspace analysis, chiral analysis, solid phase microextraction, and other cutting-edge topics.

 Excellent desk reference for GC users October 29, 1998
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Great overview of Gas Chromatography, detectors, hardware, problems & fixes, data analysis, etc. Worth having as a desk reference and for planning to go into new areas with a GC. Hope to get the boss to buy it, rather than keep getting the library copy.
For decades, Harold McNair was the BEST person teaching GC November 24, 2008

This is a terrific overview of basic gas chomatography. For decades, Harold McNair was the BEST person teaching gas chromatography.
Applied GC (gas chromatography) is as much an art as it is a science and has grown to be an invaluable tool for analytical work. Why not start with the best foundation of basics that one can get?
Excellent primer for GC November 14, 2000

A very good reference for those who just start to learn gas chromatography. The book was written in a format that make it easy to understand with more emphasis on the practical side rather than theoretical/mathematical treatment. After 40 years of intensive development, gas chromatography is still a very formidable technique.

good information about all type of GC. Description and techniques instructions. It's a general book, so you'll not find deep information of a typical GC.
