CRC Handbook of Chromatography: Analysis and Characterization of Steroids

CRC Handbook of Analysis and Characterization of Steroids provides a comprehensive review of chromatographic methods used in steroid analysis, including gas chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, and supercritical fluid chromatography. The book discusses principles, applications, and apparatus required for the chromatographic analysis of steroids. Classes of steroids covered include anabolic-androgenic steroids, bile acids, cardenolides, ecdysteroids, estrogens, corticoids, sterols, and Vitamin D. A chapter is devoted to each class of steroids and features nomenclature, structures, and descriptions for sample preparations and chromatographic data.

CRC Handbook of Analysis and Characterization of Steroids provides essential information and techniques for professional analytical chemists in academia, clinical chemists in pharmaceutical and food quality control labs, and researchers and technicians in forensic and drug analysis facilities.
