Biography
V. A. Krylov, Doctor of Chemistry, Professor, Head of the Division of Analytical Chemistry of the Nizhny Novgorod State University. In 1980 – 2015 he was the head of the Laboratory of Analytical Chemistry of High Purity Substances at the Institute of the Chemistry of High Purity Substances of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The main direction of scientific research of professor Krylov is the development of the theory and applications of chromatography for the analysis of high purity substances, environmental objects and development of methods of the microextraction. The attained detection limits for molecular impurities constitute 10–6 to 10–11wt % and hit a record low. He is the author of more than 200 scientific papers, including reviews on the analytical chemistry of high purity volatile substances, air and liquid-liquid microextractionpreconcentration.
