This event is now available on demand.

Event Overview:

Building on the success of LCGC’s PFAS Summit in 2024, LCGC International is thrilled to introduce another interactive, two-day virtual symposium aimed at laboratory scientists specializing in the analysis of PFAS (per-and poly-fluoroalkyl substances) and who need to keep abreast of the latest analytic advances using chromatographic techniques. This event will showcase the latest techniques and best practices for analyzing PFAS in food and environmental samples. Each day features two sessions, with a live Q&A following the first session to provide expert insights and foster meaningful discussions.

The second session on both days will contain presentations from leading chromatography companies, who will demonstrate how their cutting-edge technologies benefit separation scientists working to analyze PFAS in food and environmental samples.

Top Reasons to Attend:

Learn state-of-the art separation science techniques to analyze PFAS.
Leading scientists reveal the cutting-edge chromatographic techniques used to analyze PFAS in food and environmental applications.
Learn about the modern separation science techniques used to analyze PFAS in food and environmental samples.

Audience:

Laboratory scientists involved in research and routine analysis of PFAS for food and environmental analysis.
