Hyphenated techniques symposia deadline
The deadlines for the submission of oral presentations for HTC-11, the 11th International Symposium on Hyphenated Techniques in Chromatography and a special two-day symposium on Hyphenated Techniques for Sample Preparation are approaching.
The deadlines for the submission of oral presentations for HTC-11, the 11th International Symposium on Hyphenated Techniques in Chromatography and a special two-day symposium on Hyphenated Techniques for Sample Preparation are approaching and any scientists active in these fields are invited to submit abstracts by 1 September 2009.
The symposia will take place in Bruges, Belgium between 26–29 January 2010, with the two-day symposium on the first two days and the main symposium beginning on 27 January. The organizers have described the lecture programme as strong and report that there will be nearly 50 invited speakers from around the world at the event.
Scientists in the field are also invited to submit posters; the deadline for which is 1 December 2009.

Determining Enhanced Sensitivity to Odors due to Anxiety-Associated Chemosignals with GC
May 8th 2025Based on their hypothesis that smelling anxiety chemosignals can, like visual anxiety induction, lead to an increase in odor sensitivity, a joint study between the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg (Erlangen, Germany) and the Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging (Freising, Germany) combined behavioral experiments, odor profile analysis by a trained panel, and instrumental analysis of odorants (gas chromatography-olfactometry) and volatiles (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry).
Investigating 3D-Printable Stationary Phases in Liquid Chromatography
May 7th 20253D printing technology has potential in chromatography, but a major challenge is developing materials with both high porosity and robust mechanical properties. Recently, scientists compared the separation performances of eight different 3D printable stationary phases.
Detecting Hyper-Fast Chromatographic Peaks Using Ion Mobility Spectrometry
May 6th 2025Ion mobility spectrometers can detect trace compounds quickly, though they can face various issues with detecting certain peaks. University of Hannover scientists created a new system for resolving hyper-fast gas chromatography (GC) peaks.
