This latest volume in the series entitled Liquid Chromatography of Natural Pigments and Synthetic Dyes presents an overview of the latest developments in the field while critically evaluating this method of analysis and providing comparisons of the various liquid chromatographic separation techniques that are currently available. Natural pigments and synthetic dyes are extensively used in various fields of everyday life including food production, textile industry, paper production, agricultural practice and research and water science and technology. Besides their capacity for...

Chromatography has been developed as a powerful and rapid technique for the separation of compounds with highly similar molecular characteristics, even from complicated matrices.
Due to their excellent separation characteristics and Versatility, chromatographic methods have found growing acceptance and application in environmental protection for residue analysis in air, ground and surface waters, sewage, sludge, soil matrices, etc
The book will be of interest to analytical chemists in legalisation and research and to analytical control specialists, as well as to researchers and...

The quantity and composition of aroma and avour compounds in foods and food products exert a marked in uence on the consumer acceptance and, consequently, on the commercial value of the products. It has been established many times that one of the main properties employed for the evaluation of the product quality is the avour, that is, an adequate avour composition considerably enhances the m- ketability. Traditional analytical methods are generally unsuitable for the accurate determination of the quantity of this class of compounds. Moreover, they do not contain any useful information on the...
