"...this book shines as a self-consistent introduction to the techniques it claims to treat...fills an important niche in the library holdings of any institution of higher learning...those who...frequently deal with research involving the application of electroanalytical methods will likely find themselves reaching for it often." (Journal of Chemical Education, Vol. 78, No. 4, April 2001)
"Offers clear, reader-friendly explanations of fundamental principles of electrochemical processes as well as insight..." (SciTech Book News, March 2001)
"...useful for a novice hoping to learn whether electrochemistry might be helpful in a particular case...useful for upper-division...or graduate students contemplating electrochemical research..." (Choice, Vol. 38, No. 10, June 2001)
"I recommend it strongly to all." (The Analyst, 8th October, 2001)
"...well written and extremely informative..." (Chemical Educator, Vol.7, No.3, 2002)
Book DescriptionThe critically acclaimed guide to the principles, techniques, and instruments of electroanalytical chemistry-now expanded and revised
Joseph Wang, internationally renowned authority on electroanalytical techniques, thoroughly revises his acclaimed book to reflect the rapid growth the field has experienced in recent years. He substantially expands the theoretical discussion while providing comprehensive coverage of the latest advances through late 1999, introducing such exciting new topics as self-assembled monolayers, DNA biosensors, lab-on-a-chip, detection for capillary electrophoresis, single molecule detection, and sol-gel surface modification. Along with numerous references from the current literature and new worked-out examples, Analytical Electrochemistry, Second Edition offers clear, reader-friendly explanations of the fundamental principles of electrochemical processes as well as important insight into the potential of electroanalysis for problem solving in a wide range of fields, from clinical diagnostics to environmental science. Key topics include:
* The basics of electrode reactions and the structure of the interfacial region
* Tools for elucidating electrode reactions and high-resolution surface characterization
* An overview of finite-current controlled potential techniques
* Electrochemical instrumentation and electrode materials
* Principles of potentiometric measurements and ion-selective electrodes
* Chemical sensors, including biosensors, gas sensors, solid-state devices, and sensor arrays
