ChromSoc’s Advances in Gas Chromatography meeting will take place at The Heath Business and Technical Park, Runcorn, Cheshire, UK, on 18 October 2017.
Gas chromatography (GC) is still the technique of choice for analyzing both volatile and semivolatile compounds, but for more difficult matrices, more is being asked of the technique in terms of separation and limits of detection. The meeting sets out to give an overview of current GC technologies and methods, as well as information on newer GC solutions. This is a biennial meeting organized by The Chromatographic Society and is the sixth meeting of this series.
The meeting has been put together to showcase work from industry, academia, and the instrument companies, and is designed to accommodate the needs of both experienced chromatographers as well as those new to the technology and its applications.
The expansive one-day event has been structured to bring attendees up to speed with the “state of play” in gas chromatography, its associated instrumentation, and support products. In previous years it has been a “full house” and booking early is recommended, according to the organizers.
The organizers have invited leading practitioners in gas chromatography from industry, academia, and the instrument companies to provide an insight in to the current status and future direction of gas chromatography. It will be a full day’s meeting with exhibition and a meeting programme. The full talk schedule can be found online at: http://www.chromsoc.com/ChromsocEvents.aspx

Using LC-MS/MS to Measure Testosterone in Dried Blood Spots
December 19th 2024Testosterone measurements are typically performed using serum or plasma, but this presents several logistical challenges, especially for sample collection, storage, and transport. In a recently published article, Yehudah Gruenstein of the University of Miami explored key insights gained from dried blood spot assay validation for testosterone measurement.
