Chemometrics computational considerations

Ecotoxicological considerations and the effort to achieve an increasingly accurate description of the state of the environment challenge analytical chemists who need to determine increasingly lower concentrations of various analytes in samples that have complex and even non-homogenous matrices. The newly coined expression "analytics" emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of available methods for obtaining information about material systems, with many methods that exceed the strict definition of analytical chemistry. Drawing on the disciplines of chemistry, physics, computer science, electronics, material science, and chemometrics, this book provides in depth information on the most important problems in analytics of samples from aquatic ecosystems. 

Using chemometrics in data processing further increases the quality and reliability of the analytical information. There are certain programs constructed for specific types of analytical methods. Data acquisition directly by the computer followed by data processing considerably decreases the uncertainty of the last main step in the analytical process (data processing).
