The 32nd International Symposium on Chromatography (ISC 2018) will be held on 23–27 September 2018 in Cannes-Mandelieu, France.
ISC 2018 is one of the premier meetings to discuss all modes of chromatography and separation sciences with a broad coverage of techniques and applications.
Through a harmonious combination of oral and poster presentations, tutorials, short courses, vendor lectures and seminars, and an international exhibition on instruments and services, ISC 2018 will provide visitors with the advances, fundamentals, challenges, trends, and applications of separation techniques, chromatography, and mass spectrometry in a wide range of topics.
So far the conference has five confirmed Plenary Lectures to be presented by Alain Beck (Center of Immunology, France), Attila Felinger (University of Pécs, Hungary), Fabrice Gritti (Waters Corporation, USA), Robert Kennedy (University of Michigan, USA), and Peter Schoenmakers (University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands), alongside 33 keynote speakers, six short courses, and six tutorials.
In addition to the very exciting five-day conference programme, the organizers hope attendees will find time to sample the attractions of the region. The warm temperature in September in Esterel Massif is an ideal location for trekking. For a scientific adventure visit the Sophia Antipolis Science and Technology Park where many fragrances and perfumes are created. The organizers recommend tasting the southern version of “French cuisine” and experience the hyphenation of the local food with the local wines (in moderation).
The symposium chairpersons are Didier Thiébaut (Université PSL, France), Valérie Pichon (Université PSL, France), and Jean-Luc Veuthey (Université de Genève, Switzerland). For more information, please visit: www.isc2018.fr
Analysis of Greenhouse Gases by Gas Chromatography
May 15th 2024This application note demonstrates the use of SCION's 8500GC system for the analysis of key greenhouse gases—carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide—in a single atmospheric air matrix. Highlighting the system's excellent sensitivity and repeatability, this method is crucial for understanding emission sources and combating climate change.
Analysis of DEHP in Drinking Water by HPLC-DAD
May 15th 2024This application note outlines a method for detecting low levels of 1,4-Dioxane, a likely carcinogenic compound, in drinking water using SCION GC-MS technology. It details the procedure for analyzing water samples spiked with 1,4-Dioxane, achieving excellent sensitivity and low detection limits, demonstrating the method's effectiveness for environmental monitoring.
