Ultrasound is an energy source that has the potential for
enhancing many stages of experimental analysis, but analytical
chemists generally have limited knowledge of this technique.
Analytical Applications of Ultrasound lays the foundations for
practicing analytical chemists to consider ways of exploiting
ultrasound energy in their research. This timely and unique
book covers a broad range of information about ultrasound,
providing advances in ultrasound equipment and demonstrations
of how this energy has been used to enhance various steps of
analysis. Given the limited literature on analytical
applications of ultrasound, the authors provide information
from other sources that suggest ways in which we can use it
in the analytical laboratory. The authors discuss the
principles of ultrasound and the variables we must consider in
adapting ultrasound to different problems.
