This workshop will take place 28–29 June 2023 in Liège, Belgium. Read on to find out what attendees can look forwards to.
After the success of the 1st “Advances in Separation Science: From Extraction to Chromatographic Applications” workshop, Giorgia Purcaro, with the support of Janusz Pawliszyn, is organizing the 2nd edition, which will be held over two days, 28–29 June 2023, in the Espace Senghor at the Gembloux Agro-Bio Tech Campus of the University of Liège, Belgium.
The workshop aims to gather together top experts from academia and industry to discuss the most recent advances in the field of separation science, which includes sample preparation, chromatographic separation, detection systems, and chemometrics. The scientific programme includes plenary lectures from prominent scientists such as Janusz Pawliszyn (University of Waterloo, Canada), Gert Desmet (Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium), Luigi Mondello (University of Messina, Italy), Torsten C. Schmidt (University of Duisburg - Essen, Germany), Hans-Gerd Janssen (Unilever Research Vlaardingen, Netherlands), Pierre Giusti (TotalEnergies, France), Barbara Bojko (Nicolaus Copernicus University, Poland), oral presentations, and poster sessions. Social breaks will contribute to stimulating exchange and networking, supporting the creation of new collaborations.
Two scholarships are available for young scientists to support travel expenses, sponsored by Shimadzu and TotalEnergies.
The deadline for abstracts for oral presentations is 19 May 2023, and the deadline for posters is 1 June 2023. A symbolic registration fee is required to attend the workshop as a commitment guarantee.
The organizers look forward to welcoming you to a historical and cosy environment that will favour the networking and the fruitful exchange of scientific discussions.

Profiling Volatile Organic Compounds in Whisky with GC×GC–MS
November 1st 2024Researchers from Austria, Greece, and Italy conducted a study to analyze volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in Irish and Scotch whiskys using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) Arrow with comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC×GC–MS) to examine the organoleptic characteristics that influence the taste of spirits.
GC–TOF-MS Finds 250 Volatile Compounds in E-Cigarette Liquids
November 1st 2024A study has used gas chromatography coupled to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer to build an electron ionization mass spectra database of more than 250 chemicals classified as either volatile or semi-volatile compounds. An additional, confirmatory layer of liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis was subsequently performed.
