Analytical Methods for Glycerol

Analytical Methods for Glycerol covers the detection, identification, determination, and separation of glycerol in analytical procedures.
The book discusses the chemical and physical information about glycerol; analytical work on the important naturally occurring and synthetic materials containing combined glycerol; and the analysis of glycerol samples, especially from the point of view of pharmacopoiea specifications. The text also describes the important methods for the enzymic determination of glycerol. Methods based on residual glycerol hydroxyl groups, methods based on the release of glycerol from its combined state in the sample, and methods based on probable participation of the complete molecules of the sample are also considered.
Chemists and people involved in the study of analytical methods of glycerol will find the book invaluable.
