Pressurized Fluid Extraction

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander
Pressurized fluid extraction (PFE) is one of several sample preparation methods that can be used to extract targeted analytes from a sample matrix into a solvent, to permit subsequent analysis. With PFE, samples are extracted with solvent in a pressurized

Principles of Quantitation: Chromatography

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander
The accurate characterization of the chemical composition of a sample depends on a variety of factors that must be considered by the analyst. Knowledge of how different approaches to quantitation affect the measurement accuracy is requisite to the
