    • English
    Advances in Microscale Electro- and Liquid Phase-Based Separation Techniques summarizes Microscale separation techniques characterized by fast, high resolution, and high efficiency with very reduced sample and solvent consumption. The book summarizes the existing body of knowledge, including hyphenated version to mass spectrometry (cLC-MS), capillary electrophoresis (CE), capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE and CZE-MS), micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC), capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE), capillary isoelectric focusing (CIEF), capillary isotachophoresis (CITP), capillary electrochromatograph... (CEC), microfluidics, and microchips. It then demonstrates the applicability of these techniques to existing and future problems in the analysis of complex mixtures of biochemicals, pharmaceuticals, environmental, and natural products.This book will be valuable to separation scientists, applications scientists, and technicians in industrial outlets, including those in pharmaceuticals, biomedicals, biotechnologies, and food and environmental industries. Students and professors who study separation techniques will also benefit greatly from the book's content.
  • Stratigraphy

    • 1st Edition
    • Octavian Catuneanu
    • English
    Stratigraphy provides a comprehensive review of various stratigraphy types in a consistent, systematic manner. Each chapter includes definitions, concepts, practical applications, and case studies. The book begins with an overview of the discipline's historical principles. Subsequent chapters delve into specific types of stratigraphy: lithostratigraphy (lithology), biostratigraphy (fossil content), chemostratigraphy (geochemical properties), magnetostratigraphy (magnetic polarity), chronostratigraphy (absolute age), cyclostratigraphy (relationship to astronomical forcing), allostratigraphy (lithological discontinuities), and sequence stratigraphy (stratal stacking patterns). This structured approach makes the book a convenient reference for quickly reviewing and comparing different stratigraphy types.Each chapter follows a consistent outline, making the text accessible and easy to navigate. This invaluable reference links theory with practice, and provides critical insights into the practical workflow that enables stratigraphic correlation in diverse geological contexts. The systematic presentation ensures that readers can efficiently compare and contrast the different stratigraphy types, enhancing their ability to integrate different stratigraphic methods in order to unravel the full array of physical and temporal complexities of the 3D stratigraphic framework.
