These volumes provide a reference source of different gas chro-matographic, liquid chromatographic, or thin-layer chromatographic techniques for the qualitative determination of various therapeutic agents, including antibiotics, vitamins and hormones, drugs of abuse in body fluids, dosage forms, or food stuffs. Over 5000 publi-cations were reviewed to prepare tables of chromatographic data for 800 compounds, arranged alphabetically by generic drug name or by drug groups. A detailed summary of the extraction procedure de-scribed in each publication included in the table of a particular drug is also provided. This easy-to-read handbook is useful for se-lecting an appropriate chromatographic procedure for the determi-nation of a given compound according to the available facilities.
