Statistical Treatment of Analytical Data

Statistical Treatment of Analytical Data provides a practical understanding of the statistical treatment of data and how to apply it in actual day-to-day activities in the laboratory to improve the quality and reporting of analytical data. There are several statistical methods available for the interpretation of analytical chemical data that help to assess the quality of the analytical measurements and aid in the presentation and interpretation of the results. Chapters include: * statistics of repeated measurements * significance tests * sampling * statistics of calibration curves * non parametric tests. These methods are described in detail, with enough basic theory to allow the chemist to develop an understanding of the principles involved, without obscuring the essential practical points. Examples are also used throughout to clarify advantages and disadvantages of important techniques. An essential guide for professionals and advanced students of analytical chemistry.Zeev, Alfassi is the author of 'Statistical Treatment of Analytical Data', published 2005 under ISBN 9780849324369 and ISBN 084932436X.
