The website presents a case study involving the detection of cocaine on dollar bills. The case study uses GC-MS, but has an introduction appropriate for beginning chemistry students.The website is available here […]
This is an experiment showing the application of affinity chromatography to the separation of albumin from horse serum. A brief introduction of affinity chromatography and how it is being used in this […]
Site contains lab experiments for both analytical and physical chemical measurements. There are 6 analytical experiments: data acquisition, AAS, voltammetry, ASV, GC-MS, stop-flow kinetics and HPLC. Experiments use real samples and are […]
This ASDL online article describes a lab experiment whereby students learn how to prepare a conducting thin-film polymer electrode for the analysis of catechol and the effect of ascorbic acid on the […]
This paper titled, Flow Injection Analysis in the Undergraduate Laboratory, by Rocha and Nobrega was published in the Chemical Educator. It describes two basic experiments. One is the measurement of copper using […]
This site has been accepted as the first on-line labbook in ASDLib. It presents analytical instrumentation in a forensic context, so that students learn both about quality measurements and the logic of […]
This USGS method explains the use of fluxes for preparation of coal for elemental analysis. Useful to supplement textbooks concerning sample preparation and may be useful in designing an XRF laboratory experiment.The […]
This site describes a simple separation of a binary mixture using liquid chromatography followed by purity analysis by melting point, and may be appropriate laboratory experiment for use as an introduction to […]
This is an experiment for the determination of fluoride ion with an ion selective electrode (ISE). While some experimental guidelines are given, students are left to choose appropriate standard concentrations and sample […]
This paper describes the rationale for introducing students to analytical chemistry in the context of environmental sciences. The authors describe the implementation of a lab for nonmajors with a field sampling component. […]
