"The Handbook of Analytical Methods for Dietary Supplements provides a convenient starting point for laboratories to develop and validate analytical testing methods for dietary supplements. The Handbook is a state-of-the-art compilation that provides current methods plus appropriate validation data, when known, for common supplements in the marketplace. Although not intended to be comprehensive, the Handbook is a useful reference for analytical chemists, quality control personnel, research and development scientists, product formulators, medicinal chemists, pharmacognosists, academicians, and students.".

Each monograph follows a standard format for quick reference; chemical names, formulas, and structures, along with information on solubility and other physical and chemical data; a description of common uses for each dietary supplement and its mode of action; discussion of reference standards and/or marker compounds used; information and directions for using various component-specific methods; and chromatography specifications and representative chromatograms, when available."--BOOK JACKET.
