Das breite Spektrum der in dieses Buch aufgenommenen Experimente wird Chemiestudenten ebenso begeistern wie Studenten der Medizin, der Biochemie und der Molekularbiologie! Gleichzeitig lernen die Studenten verschiedene Maßstäbe (Mikro-, Halbmikro- und Makrotechniken) kennen und üben, die jeweils richtige Technik für ein gegebenes Problem auszuwählen. Ein Spektrenatlas, zu dessen Erstellung modernste NMR- und IR-Verfahren eingesetzt wurden, ergänzt das Buch in idealer Weise.
