Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is a rapidly developing laboratory technique for the separation and identification of compounds in mixtures. Recent, significant improvements in instrumentation have rekindled interest in SFC and have enhanced its standing in the scientific community. Many scientists are familiar with column liquid chromatography and its potential beyond traditional liquid chromatography, yet many of its capabilities remain underappreciated. Supercritical Fluid Chromatography and Extraction explores contemporary supercritical fluid chromatography and extraction and how it should be implemented in laboratory science for analysis, isolation, and production.New to This EditionThis new edition details recent advances and applications of supercritical fluids in sample prep, instrumental analysis, and process-scale, including SFE, making it a comprehensive resource for both techniques. Further enhancements to this edition include:Expanded section on SFC theory to include gradient elutionA new chapter on general detectors for SFCEnhanced method development coverage, with focus on gradient elution practicesIncludes multidimensional SFC, SFC × SFC, and LC-SFCFeatures comprehensive information on accelerated solvents, comparing solvent and extraction techniques.Highlights environmental monitoring and analysis applications of SFE.Widely used in the food industry for decades, SFE is now expanding into new fields. Supercritical Fluid Chromatography and Extraction, Second Edition serves as a valuable resource for chemical engineers, chemists, researchers, students, and academics working with supercritical fluids at preparative and process scales. It’s also an ideal introduction for newcomers to SFC and SFE.Covers method development for SFC and SFE across instrument platforms and process scale for both techniquesCombines comprehensive coverage of both techniques in one volumeEdited and authored by leading chromatography and extraction expertsContains over 200 figures and tables for clarity and key concept retentionShowcases applications in environmental monitoring, food, natural products, forensic science, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and bioanalysis

'I found it fascinating - it's an integral part of the history of Dublin that has been lost to time for too long' - Rick O'SheaTucked away in Dublin's north inner city, Monto - purported to be Europe's biggest red-light district from 1860 to 1925 with up to 1600 sex workers at any one time - made headlines for wild tales of debauchery. However, what happened to the women and girls within its brothels in life and death is less clear.This account balances the historical origins of Monto's rise and fall with an investigation into the inhumane and heartbreaking reality of the treatment of the women that worked there, while delving into the impact of class, sexual violence and British colonialism on the women's survival. West explores the stigma and violence the women and girls of Monto endured, and investigates the shocking claims surrounding their treatment by medical professionals.Weaving together oral histories, historical records, fashion trends and family memories, this book brings the women of Monto to life within its pages as it explores how they lived, worked, loved, dressed, mourned and built a tight-knit community.
