Timely, comprehensive, and up-to-date: All important aspects of the use of nanomaterials in analytical chemistry and sample preparation directly to the fingertips of the reader!

Nanomaterials have extraordinary physical and chemical properties, such as unique optical, electrical, thermal, magnetic, and adsorption characteristics. These special properties are the key to a number of analytical applications (e.g. for miniaturization of analytical devices), especially providing powerful tools for sample preparation. Nanomaterials-based sample preparation and pre-concentration techniques play vital roles in many analytical procedures. Moreover, freedom to functionalize the nanomaterials with various chemical groups can also increase their affinity toward target compounds, which is highly desirable for selective extraction of target analytes from complex matrices.

Sample Preparation with Nanomaterials: Next Generation Techniques and Applications gives a comprehensive overview of recent progress due to novel nanomaterials in sample preparation. Starting with an overview of special features of nanomaterials and their application range in analytical sciences, the physico-chemical background such as adsorption is presented. Important types of nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and magnetic particles are reviewed, and applications from biological sample preparation up to lab-on-a-chip systems are presented. A special emphasis is put on approaches that are sustainable and reduce the cost of sample treatment processes, both in terms of chemicals and time consumption. Discussion of legal, economical and toxicity aspects completes this comprehensive book.

• Hot topic: Applications of nanotechnology have revolutionized all fields of science and opened up new perspectives in analytical sample preparation.
• All-encompassing: All important types of nanomaterials used for sample preparation (e.g. carbon and magnetic nanomaterials) are covered, and extensive reference material including a list of manufacturers make this book an invaluable reference.
• Related important topics such as economic and environmental aspects, and toxicity of nanoparticles are discussed in depth.

Sample Preparation with Nanomaterials: Next Generation Techniques and Applications is an important reference written for analytical chemists, materials scientists, analytical laboratories, and process engineers.
