The world around us is made up of ever-changing substances.

The discovery and detection of these substances require the involvement of analytical chemistry.

It's known as the eyes of science and technology.

Analytical chemistry is an important branch of chemistry.

The main task is to identify the chemical composition, content, structure and other aspects of substances.

Its application range is almost involved national economy, national defense construction, resource development and all aspects of human society, including clothing, food, housing and transportation.

Analytical chemistry plays a key role in many fields Including exploration, development and refining of various resources such as coal, oil, natural gas and nuclear materials. 

The unveiling of mysteries including origin of life, life process, disease and heredity, design and characterization of new materials.

This discipline has made tremendous contributions to the progress of human civilization with the rapid development of social economy.

Global environmental pollution, medical diseases, food safety and other problems are increasingly serious.

Analytical chemistry is steadily advancing along a path that is both challenging and highly promising.
