Compendium of Analytical Nomenclature
The Orange Book - 3rd Edition
Inczedy, T. Lengyel, and A.M. Ure
Blackwell Science, 1998 [ISBN 0-632-05127-2]
This authoritative compendium updates and replaces the first edition,
which proved so valuable for all who needed to use the officially
recommended analytical nomenclature mandated by IUPAC. Since the
first edition the demand for new analytical procedures has increased
steadily and at the same time the diversity of the techniques has
expanded and the quality and performance characteristics of the
procedures have come to be a focus of interest. New types of instrumental
and automatic techniques have emerged and computerization has taken
over. The scope of analytical chemistry has been widened as the
question to be answered was not only the chemical composition of
the sample, but also the structure of substances, and changes in
composition and structure in space and time. This new volume will
be an indispensable reference resource for the coming decade.
