Analytica USA

Columbus, Ohio was recognized by Condé Nast Traveler’s 2024 Readers’ Choice Awards in the categories of Best Big City, Best Food City, and Friendliest City. A novel attraction is now also underway: the first edition of analytica USA, from September 10-12, 2025. The original exhibition, analytica Munich, has been held in Germany every two years since 1968. At the most recent event in Munich in 2024, the exhibition attracted over 33,000 participants, with a total of 1066 exhibitors from 42 countries.

analytica is also hosted biannually in Shanghai, China; Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam; and Johannesburg, South Africa, and annually in Mumbai and Hyderabad, India. Each exhibition is accompanied by an extensive conference program.

The long-awaited arrival of analytica in the United States is imminent. This event is of particular significance as it marks the first occasion that the exhibition will be hosting more than 200 exhibitors and 4000 visitors. To complement the exhibition, a scientific conference will also be offered.

On September 10-11, 2025, world-renowned experts will give presentations and open discussions in sessions called One Health, Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry, and New Developments and FuturePerspectives. In addition, there will also be a poster session with free beer, where you can talk in a relaxed atmosphere about science. The best three posters will be selected by a committee and awarded with one of three prizes of $1200, $800, and $500. The first plenary session on September 10, 2025 will start with a lecture by John McLean (Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee), “Mapping Your Life and Everything Else—The Promise of High Dimensional Phenomics.” This will be followed by two further plenary lectures by Susan Olesik (Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio) and Nikos Kyrpides (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, California), “Enhanced Fluidity LC–MS Analysis of Proteins, Oligosaccharides, and Oligonucleotides,” and “Microbiome Date Science: Unraveling Microbial, Viral and Functional Diversity,” respectively. These plenary lectures provide an ideal introduction to the following One Health Session in which Albert Sickmann (Leibniz Institute for analytical Sciences, Dortmund, Germany) will talk about proteomics and cardiovascular diseases, and Amanda Hummon (Ohio State University) about imaging mass spectroscopy (MS) analysis of liposomes. This first day will be concluded by a poster session with the aforementioned free beer.

The second plenary session will follow on September 11 at 9:00 am, in which Sebastiaan Eeltink (Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Ixelles, Belgium) will present his work on a comprehensive spatial three-dimensional liquid-phase separation technology. Ralf Zimmermann (University of Rostock, Germany) will then report on effect-based analysis of PM2.5 in the field of air pollution and health. Kelly Hines (University of Georgia (Athens, Georgia) will then introduce the next session on ion mobility mass spectrometry, with her presentation on rapid multi-omics analysis.

After this introduction, the session will be started by Daniel DeBoard (MOBILion, Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania) with the presentation “Waste Not, Want Not: Leveraging High Resolution Ion Mobility for Efficient Separations of Complex Proteomic Mixtures.” This will be followed by Ahmed Hamid (Auburn University, Alabama) on the differentiation of microorganisms at the strain level using high-resolution ion mobility mass spectrometry. Finally, Oliver J. Schmitz (University of Duisburg-Essen, Essen, Germany) will give a lecture on the coupling of comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography (LC×LC) with ion mobility mass spectrometry.

In the final afternoon session, new developments and future perspectives will be presented by renowned scientists from the United States. This will start with Dwight Stoll’s (Gustavus Adolphus College, St. Peter, Minnesota) latest work on comprehensive two-dimensional LC. James Grinias (Rowan University, Glassboro, New Jersey) will talk about greener and faster separation with capillary LC. Martin Gilar from Waters Corporation will then report on RNA analysis with LC and affinity-LC. Robert Kennedy from the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, Michigan) will present droplet microfluidics as an enabling technology for chemistry and biology. And last, but not least, Robert (Chip) Cody from Jeol USA (Peabody, Massachusetts) will give a lecture entitled “Snapshots to Separation: From Ambient Ionization Mass Spectrometry to GC×GC–HRMS with a Giant Searchable Database.”
