GREENER CHEMISTRY. Experiments that stress greener chemistry appear throughout the manual and are identified with a green chemistry icon. For example, the use of household bleach is explored as an alternative to the toxic chromium ion as an oxidizing agent for cyclohexanol.
AN EMPHASIS ON LABORATORY SAFETY. The laboratory safety chapter includes material on working with closed systems and laboratory courtesy.
A STRONG MASS SPECTROMETRY CHAPTER. The chapter on mass spectrometry describes time-of-flight and mass quadrupole analyzers and includes sections on GC-MS and computer-aided spectral identification, as well as ESI and MALDI ionization.
BIOASSAY EXPERIMENTS. The manual's bioassay experiments include a bioassay of eugenol isolated from cloves.
