7th International Symposium on Hyphenated Techniques in Chromatography
and Hyphenated Chromatographic Analyzers (HTC-7)
6-8 February 2002, Bruges, Belgium
This symposium aims to give an overview of the fundamental aspects,
instrumental developments, and applications of the various hyphenated
chromatographic techniques (e.g., coupling of GC or LC to LC, GC, and
SFE-SFC; MS, FTIR, AED, and other techniques coupled with GC, (HP)LC,
SFC, CZE, and FFF; PTV-GC-MS; on-line air traps-, purge-and-trap, extractors-,
and GPC-GC (or LC); LC to NMR, Raman, FIA-DAD, light-scattering; ITP-MS;
and SPME- and MESI-techniques). Emphasis will be placed on sample preparation,
sample introduction, miniaturization, microfabricated analytical devices;
and the design of hyphenated, on-line, and at-line chromatographic analyzers.
Hyphenated chromatography is generally used in medicine and pharmacy,
food and feed analysis, and in environmental and forensic studies. The
recent outbreak of food poisoning by dioxins and PCBs could only be
solved using GC-MS techniques. This HTC symposium is the sole Congress
in the world devoted to hyphenated chromatography. Around 400 scientific
participants from all over the world are expected to attend.
