Publisher's Synopsis
Stringent demands for quality are made of analytical<br> chemistry. Consequently every laboratory that works<br> analytically must constantly check the quality of its research results.<br> <br> Quality assurance in analytical chemistry covers a large area, beginning with sampling and ending with plausibility control and archiving the data.<br> <br> It is the practical aspects of quality assurance that are especially treated in this book, for example, the structuring of an internal quality assurance system or the work of a quality assurance representative. In addition, emphasis is placed on quality assurance measures, writing a quality assurance manual and standard operation procedures. Important terms, standards and legal regulations are also described. <br> <br> This handbook is a helpful practical guide for heads of laboratories, representatives for quality assurance and scientists working in analytical laboratories.
