Description
Analytical and Chemometric Tools: An up-to-date Tutorial with Practical Applications to Food Security and Safety provides a one-stop tutorial in understanding the tools required for applying chemometrics to food and forensic chemistry. With a generous compilation of practical examples, the book covers a theoretical discussion of chemometric methods, summarizes up-too-date targeted and untargeted analytical methods in the field of forensic science, and presents real-life case studies applied to methods of chemometrics for food and forensic chemistry. This book is a valuable resource for chemists, forensic scientists, food scientists, students, and all those who wish to broaden their knowledge in the allied field.- Provides an application based focus that bridges the gap between chemometrics and food and forensic chemistry- Presents real-life case studies that demonstrate the methods of chemometrics used for food and forensic chemistry- Includes broad coverage of all aspects of chemometrics, from analytical to theoretical methods
