Upcoming Events
The 16th International Symposium on Separation Sciences — New Advancements in Chromatography and Capillary Electromigration Techniques — (16th ISSS) will provide a meeting point and discussion forum for scientists from academia and industry who are active in chromatography, electrophoresis and related techniques. The meeting will take place from 6–10 September 2010 at the Conference Halls of the National Research Council (CNR) Headquarters in Rome, Italy.
The scientific programme will cover practical and fundamental aspects of these techniques and their wide range of applications in academia and industry. It will comprise plenary lectures by distinguished scientists, oral presentations in parallel sessions and poster presentations. There will also be short podium presentations of posters by young scientists and an exhibition displaying the latest innovations in instrumentation by leading companies. An attractive social programme to help networking and discussion between separation scientists is also an important part of this event.
Former students and coworkers of Csaba Horváth will present their research in a special session dedicated to honour the memory of Csaba on the 80th anniversary of his birthday. The session will focus on how separation science has evolved from work initiated by this legendary figure in separation science.
The 16th ISSS is organized by the Interdivisional Group of Separation Sciences of the Italian Chemical Society (SCI), under the Central European Group for Separation Science (CEGSS); the European Society for Separation Science (EuSSS); the Division of Analytical Chemistry and the Division of Chemistry for Environment and Cultural Heritage of SCI; and the Italian National Research Council (CNR).
Scientists, exhibitors and sponsors are invited to participate by submitting abstracts, reserving exhibition space and becoming a sponsor. Core topics include: Theoretical aspects and advances in instrumentation, column technology and detection methods; electromigration, multidimensional and hyphenated techniques; industrial applications, sample preparation, data analysis, life sciences, proteomics, metabolomics and biomarker discovery; clinical, pharmaceutical, environmental and food analysis; chiral compounds, natural and synthetic polymers.
The Scientific Committee of this event are Günther Bonn, Wolfgang Buchberger, Boguslaw Buszewski, Virginia Coman, Danilo Corradini (Chairman), Attila Felinger, Modest Gertsiuk, Pavel Jandera, Imre Klebovich, Aldo Laganà, Jozef Lehotay, Luigi Mondello, Nikola Šegudov, Corrado Sarzanini* (Co-chairman), Lucija Zupan and a distinguished list of leading chromatographers will be giving lectures at this event.

Best of the Week: Food Analysis, Chemical Migration in Plastic Bottles, STEM Researcher of the Year
December 20th 2024Top articles published this week include the launch of our “From Lab to Table” content series, a Q&A interview about using liquid chromatography–high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS) to assess chemical hazards in plastic bottles, and a piece recognizing Brett Paull for being named Tasmanian STEM Researcher of the Year.
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.
Determination of Pharmaceuticals by Capillary HPLC-MS/MS (Dec 2024)
December 19th 2024This application note demonstrates the use of a compact portable capillary liquid chromatograph, the Axcend Focus LC, coupled to an Agilent Ultivo triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for quantitative analysis of pharmaceutical drugs in model aqueous samples.
