Radioanalytical Chemistry Experiments [electronic resource] /
Attrep, Moses.author.
Kahn, Bernd.author.
The education of the radioanalytical chemist has two critical components: theory and practice. The textbook Radioanalytical Chemistry was designed to address the theory component of this education. This laboratory manual accompanies and complements that textbook. This manual provides a framework for the student to hone their laboratory skills, with emphasis on safety, research, experimental design, instrumentation and appropriate laboratory methods.
Description based upon print version of record.
