Download or read book Environmental Immunochemical Analysis Detection of Pesticides and Other Chemicals written by Shirley J. Gee and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-19 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a tutorial designed to instruct the reader in use and application of immunochemical methods of analysis for environmental contaminants. A brief introduction describes basic principles and the advantages and disadvantages of the technology, and gives a listing of references which supply more detail. Preparation of the laboratory for use of this technology and the general scientific considerations prior to using the technology are discussed. Detailed step-wise procedures are given for analysis of selected analytes, triazine herbicides, carbaryl, paraquat, and p-nitrophenols, etc. In addition to the specific immunoassay methods, a series of support techniques necessary to perform immunochemical methods are described. This book provides specific instruction for certain analytes, but also serves to familiarize the novice reader with many generic concepts needed to successfully utilize immunochemistry technology including: applications, sampling, sample preparation, extraction, cleanup, quality assurance, methods development and optimization, data handling and troubleshooting. It is not necessary for the reader to actually perform the immunoassays given in this user's guide to obtain familiarity with these concepts. The guide is written so that the information presented can be applied to other immunoassays not given here. Thus, the strength of the guide is its universal applicability to immunoassay methods.

Book Environmental and Health and Safety Management

Download or read book Environmental and Health and Safety Management written by Nicholas P. Cheremisinoff and published by William Andrew. This book was released on 1995-12-31 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume has been prepared for the Environmental and Health & Safety Manager. The EH&S Manager is a new breed of corporate professionals that are faced with the responsibility of handling both environmental policy/issues and occupational safety issues within organizations. Throughout the 1980s there was a proliferation of health and safety departments, environmental compliance personnel, and technical people associated with handling pollution control and waste management. American industry has been over the last several years contracting and downsizing their operations. In doing so, many corporations, large and small, are demanding greater responsibilities be delegated to middle and line function management. In this regard, many corporations today are moving towards a single management entity, the EH&S Manager, who's responsibilities require extensive knowledge of both the environmental statutes and OSHA standards. This desk reference has been written as a compliance source for the EH&S Manager. The authors prefer to call the EH&S Manager an Occupational Safety Professional and use this designation interchangeably throughout the text. This individual, as stated above, has a dual responsibility that requires both technical and managerial skills in two arenas. In this regard, this book provides the working professional a reference on both the environmental regulations and industry safety standards. Additionally, it covers management practices for on-site hazard materials handling operations and constitutes an important reference for establishing hazard communication and training programs for employees.

Book Immunochemical Detection of Pesticides and Their Metabolites in the Water Cycle

Download or read book Immunochemical Detection of Pesticides and Their Metabolites in the Water Cycle written by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 1995-08-21 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important branch of environmental research is dealing with the distribution of pesticides and their metabolites. The development of methods, especially of the rather expensive physico-chemical procedures, has experienced considerable progress. However, to lower instrumental costs and personnel being involved, remedial measures are used and required. The highly selective and sensitive immunochemical methods are such an important supplement. They can be used to cope with quantitative (enzyme immunoessays) or qualitative problems (immunolocalization of adsorbed residues in soil and plant). The book introduces validated assays for pesticides and their metabolites that can be applied routinely. An extension to immunofluorescent methods further improves the sensitivity. The significance of the test development has been directly proven by screening programs including the use of model ecosystems.
