The Pittcon programme committee has announced the call for papers for Pittcon 2011, which will be held at the Georgia World Congress Centre, Atlanta, Georgia, USA, 13–18 March 2011. The committee is requesting abstracts of original, previously unpublished findings in all aspects of instrumental analysis including but not limited to chromatography, molecular and atomic spectroscopy, electrochemistry, mass spectrometry, hand-held/portable instruments and lab-on-a-chip technology. The committee also seeks abstracts addressing novel applications of measurement science in areas such as nanotechnology, biomedicine, neurochemistry, genomics, forensics, informatics and quality assurance, as well as pharmaceutical, environmental, polymer and food sciences.
“Our 2011 technical programme will again deliver top quality content in the most relevant fields of chemical analysis,” said 2011 programme chair Mitch Johnson. “The programme will be tightly coordinated with conferee networking and short courses to provide the highest impact for conferees. Pittcon provides attendees with content ranging from the theoretical underpinnings of chemical measurement science through experimental practice, providing a perfect complement to the largest scientific instrument exposition in the world.”
Abstracts must be received by 13 August 2010 and can be submitted electronically via the technical programme link at

University of Rouen-Normandy Scientists Explore Eco-Friendly Sampling Approach for GC-HRMS
April 17th 2025Root exudates—substances secreted by living plant roots—are challenging to sample, as they are typically extracted using artificial devices and can vary widely in both quantity and composition across plant species.
Determining the Serum Proteomic Profile in Migraine Patients with LC–MS
April 17th 2025Researchers used liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) in their proteomic analysis to compare the serum proteome of migraine patients with healthy controls and to identify differentially expressed proteins as potential migraine biomarkers.
