Basic Calculations for Chemical and Biological AnalysisUpplaga 2

Like the 1993 edition, this iteration does not assume that students, lab technicians and scientists have mastered the prerequisite calculation skills for quantitative problems in the chemical/ biomedical sciences. A new chapter focuses on using spreadsheets and laboratory information management systems. Other chapters cover calculations and techniques relevant to reagents, chemical reactions, properties of gases and solutions, pH and buffer preparation, spectrophotometry, enzyme assays, and radioactivity. Also included are derivations of some key equations, quick reference guides, and an index to the practical examples.
