ditional sophomore level to the junior and even the senior year. Certainly, the deferral to the later time offers the possibility of a more erudite course. On the other hand, the skills and philosophy ob­ tained from the analytical course might well be useful in other courses—a valid reason for teach­ ing analytical chemistry earlier in the student's career. A somewhat different approach, which has found limited accept­ ance, is to integrate analytical chemistry into the entire under­ graduate curriculum rather than teach it as a separate course. Such a procedure requires close coordi­ nation of course content that is most likely to be available in a small college. With the present emphasis on in­ strumentation, many schools are offering separate courses in instru­ mental analysis. Some are even offering two courses, one at the ele­ mentary and another at the ad­ vanced level. Understandably the offerings vary in content and qual­ CUP THIS COUPON ity. Some cover instrumental methods in breadth, surveying a wide variety of techniques. Others study a limited number of methods in a little more detail. In either event the newly graduated chemist 80 can hardly be classified as an ex­ ο > Ζ = -π , pert.

THE BASIC TOOLS FOR IR ANALYSIS

Good spectroscopists deserve good ac­ cessories. Take these sealed IR cells for instance. Nothing fancy about them — just accuracy, precision and relia­ bility. Path lengths from 7 microns up­ wards, in either sealed or demountable forms. Available fitted with most IR transmitting window materials. Im­ mediate delivery of NaCI and KBr cells. F-05 suitable for Perkin-Elmer, Beckman, Unicam and Cary-White in­ struments—F-04 for Infracord only. In­ terested? Call or write for more details.
