The new Orange Book will be in a consistent glossary style format with definitions of concepts in different fields of analytical chemistry. The nineteen chapters of the 3rd edition will become eleven in the present revision. We have taken the decision to concentrate on methods and not attempt to venture into the ocean of applications. The first chapter will set the metrological scene with definitions from the Green Book, the International Vocabulary of Concepts and Associated Terms in Metrology (VIM) and selected chemometric and statistical terms.
An on-line edition with expanded sections and new sections contributed by the Subcommittee for Solubility and Equilibrium Data will also be prepared. The expected publication date is in the biennium 2013 - 2015.
