Chemistry in Egypt

 

Foreword from Microscale Chemistry*

The use of microscale chemistry is gaining momentum worldwide and is now an integral part of courses in North America, France and South Africa as well as in the UK. The advantages of microscale chemistry are evident in terms of safety and convenience. Microscale experiments also require students to rethink approach to experimental technique and encourages increased accuracy and kill in carrying out procedures. Microscale chemistry in the UK is currently mainly confined to undergraduate teaching in universities. However, the Royal Society of Chemistry believes that this publication will provide the basis to help establish microscale chemistry at the secondary level.
