Abstract
The following article has been retracted due to the investigation of complaints received against it. The Editorial Board found that there are conflicts of interests between the authors and their organization. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter, and the American Journal of Analytical Chemistry treats all unethical behavior seriously. This paper published in Vol. 5 No. 9 589-597, 2014 has been removed from this site.
