Opis

This is the only comprehensive survey of chromatographic methods for the analysis of aroma compounds and fragrances. A unique feature of the book are the extensive tables with relevant data. This will help significantly to choose an appropriate method, and to compare its characteristics with that of other methods. Coverage of applications includes food products, essential oils, as well as environmental samples. Tibor Cserhati is a recognized member of the separation science community with long-standing publishing experience. He is author or coauthor of six books and more than 490 scientific papers.

Recenzje

From the reviews:

"It explains how aroma compounds and fragrances are analyzed with chromatography. Designed to help scientists decide on the appropriate method, it compares the various choices and offers extensive data tables." (American Herb Association Quarterly, Vol. 25 (4), 2011)

"If you are in the field of smells and taints, both pleasant and unpleasant, and have not the time or inclination to search the literature then this would be a useful book to have as a reference." (Edward R. Adlard, Chromatographia, Vol. 73, 2011)

Blurb

Aroma compounds and fragrances play a decisive role in the determination of the quality and marketability of a wide variety of merchandises such as foods and food products, cosmetics, pharmaceutical preparations, etc. The exact knowledge of the composition of these compounds and the contribution of the individual components to the overall acceptability of the product is of paramount importance not only for scientific research but also for the large-scale industrial production. The book is a new milestone in this rapidly developing field including both theoretical and applied research as well as industrial applications.
