Index.

"Handbook of Sample Preparation" is a valuable book
dealing with a wide range of state-of-the-art extraction techniques
that have been used in many laboratories. Not only a good text book
on a variety of extraction techniques, it also enables systematic
understanding of the modern sample-preparation methods necessary
for workers dealing with the analysis of various complex
mixtures." (Anal Bioanal Chem, 2011)
