Synopsis

This is the fourth volume in a series of English translations of analytical methods by the working group "Analytical Chemistry" of the DFG Commission for the Investigation of Health Hazards of Chemical Compounds in the Work Area. Today many people are exposed to a poisoned environment or have to work at a hazardous workplace. To protect their health, it is important to determine the state of intoxication accurately; the hazardous substances; and to quantify their resorption by the body. This book describes 12 standardized methods for analyzing chemical compounds of current significance in industrial and environmental medicine. These methods meet high standards of reliability and reproducibility and are all suitable for routine use. Considerable emphasis is placed on sample collection methods and on analytical quality control. A chapter new to this edition introduces atomic absorption spectrometry for biological monitoring purpose. This book should be of interest to analytical chemists, physicians working in industrial medicine, environmental chemists and chemists in industry.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Biological monitoring has proved extremely valuable in assessing the health risk of persons exposed to hazardous chemical substances in the environment or at the workplace. The chemical compounds are generally determined in body fluids. They are present in trace or ultratrace concentrations. Specific and extremely sensitive methods of chemical analysis are necessary to separate these substances from the biological matrix and to determine them precisely.

This volume contains 10 standardized analytical methods. All methods are suitable for routine use. They meet exceptionally high standards of reliability and reproducibility. Considerable emphasis is placed on sample collection methods and on analytical quality control. A new gereral chapter introduces atomic absorption spectrometry for the determination of metals in biological materials
