HPLC 2011 Dalian
The HPLC symposium series is one of the premier conferences for liquid phase separations and related techniques. The conference has grown to become one of the largest meetings in the world dedicated to liquid phase separation science. This international meeting is multi-disciplinary and brings together many of the world's leading authorities to address the practical and economic aspects of separation science, as well as the challenges that lie ahead.
The 37th International Symposium on High Performance Liquid Phase Separations and Related Techniques (HPLC 2011 Dalian) will be held on 8–11 October 2011 in Dalian, China. The conference will take place at the Dalian World Expo Centre, Dalian, China, an exhibition hall which integrates services for exhibition, conference and performance.
HPLC 2011 Dalian will be comprised of plenary and keynote lectures, oral lectures, prominently featured poster presentations, and a comprehensive display of commercial products for separation scientists. The symposium will cover advances in all areas of liquid phase separations.
Currently more than 40 specially invited speakers from abroad have been confirmed, as well as more than 35 from mainland China and 5 from Taiwan. A list of prominent invited speakers can be found on the conference website.
Topics for HPLC 2011 Dalian will include Theory of Separation Science, featuring theoretical models and insights and data analysis and chemometrics; Advances in Liquid Phase Separation Technology, featuring column technology and stationary phases, monoliths and small particle technology, ultra-high pressure and high temperature chromatography, sample preparation methods and hyphenated separations such as LC–MS, CE–MS, LC–NMR and other hyphenated techniques; Applications in Life Sciences and Drug Discovery, featuring metabolomics, proteomics, glycomics, biomarker discovery and validation and pharmaceutical separations and analysis; and Other Applications, featuring food safety, environmental and agricultural analysis and polymer analysis.
Young scientists (under the age of 35) are encouraged to submit abstract for inclusion in the oral programme, and those that do can be considered for the PSC (Permanent Scientific Committee of HPLC Symposium) Young Scientist Award.
PSC Young Scientist Award aims to encourage the participation of young scientists in the HPLC symposium series and to recognise their contribution to the meeting.
In order to help the presence of young scientists to attend the HPLC 2011 Dalian symposium, travel awards sponsored by HPLC will be presented to students who will present either an oral or poster contribution at the symposium

New Study Uses MSPE with GC–MS to Analyze PFCAs in Water
January 20th 2025Scientists from the China University of Sciences combined magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to analyze perfluoro carboxylic acids (PFCAs) in different water environments.
The Next Frontier for Mass Spectrometry: Maximizing Ion Utilization
January 20th 2025In this podcast, Daniel DeBord, CTO of MOBILion Systems, describes a new high resolution mass spectrometry approach that promises to increase speed and sensitivity in omics applications. MOBILion recently introduced the PAMAF mode of operation, which stands for parallel accumulation with mobility aligned fragmentation. It substantially increases the fraction of ion used for mass spectrometry analysis by replacing the functionality of the quadrupole with high resolution ion mobility. Listen to learn more about this exciting new development.
A Guide To Finding the Ideal Syringe and Needle
January 20th 2025Hamilton has produced a series of reference guides to assist science professionals in finding the best-suited products and configurations for their applications. The Syringe and Needle Reference Guide provides detailed information on Hamilton Company’s full portfolio of syringes and needles. Everything from cleaning and preventative maintenance to individual part numbers are available for review. It also includes selection charts to help you choose between syringe terminations like cemented needles and luer tips.
The Complexity of Oligonucleotide Separations
January 9th 2025Peter Pellegrinelli, Applications Specialist at Advanced Materials Technology (AMT) explains the complexity of oligonucleotide separations due to the unique chemical properties of these molecules. Issues such as varying length, sequence complexity, and hydrophilic-hydrophobic characteristics make efficient separations difficult. Separation scientists are addressing these challenges by modifying mobile phase compositions, using varying ion-pairing reagents, and exploring alternative separation modes like HILIC and ion-exchange chromatography. Due to these complexities, AMT has introduced the HALO® OLIGO column, which offers high-resolution, fast separations through its innovative Fused-Core® technology and high pH stability. Alongside explaining the new column, Peter looks to the future of these separations and what is next to come.
Oasis or Sand Dune? Isolation of Psychedelic Compounds
January 20th 2025Magic mushrooms, once taboo, have recently experienced a renaissance. This new awakening is partially due to new findings that indicate the effects of psilocybin, and its dephosphorylated cousin psilocin may produce long lasting results for patients who might be struggling with anxiety, depression, alcohol and drug abuse, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Hamilton Company has developed a methodology for the isolation and identification of 5 common psychedelic compounds used in the potential treatment of disease. The PRP-1 HPLC column resin remains stable in the harsh alkaline conditions ideal for better separations.
