Complete Details

The Advances in Chemical Analysis of Food V is a high-level scientific symposium that marks the fifth installment of this highly successful series. Jointly organized by the RSC Food Group and the RSC Separation Science Group, the event is dedicated to the latest methodological and technological breakthroughs in the chemical analysis of food products. As global food supply chains become increasingly complex, the role of precise chemical analysis in ensuring safety, authenticity, and nutritional quality has never been more critical.

Taking place in April 2026 at the historic Burlington House in London, the symposium provides a specialized forum for analytical chemists to discuss the transition from traditional laboratory techniques to high-throughput, automated, and portable sensing technologies. The program is carefully curated to cover diverse topics, including the detection of emerging contaminants (such as microplastics and PFAS), advanced mass spectrometry for food metabolomics, and the use of isotopic analysis for food fraud prevention.

A unique feature of this year's meeting is the integration of "Data Science in Analysis," exploring how machine learning algorithms are being used to interpret complex chromatograms and spectral data. The event structure includes plenary lectures from industry leaders, rapid-fire presentations for early-career researchers, and a dedicated poster session. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with equipment manufacturers showcasing the latest in LC-MS, GC-MS, and NMR technology specifically tailored for food matrices. This series remains a vital touchstone for any professional involved in the rigorous science of what we eat.

Key Event Highlights

Emerging Contaminant Focus: Specialized sessions on the detection and quantification of "forever chemicals" and micro-pollutants in complex food matrices. Authenticity & Traceability: New research on chemical fingerprinting techniques used to combat food fraud and verify geographical origin. Technological Innovation: Showcasing the shift toward portable, real-time "lab-on-a-chip" sensors for field-based food testing. Joint Expertise: A rare collaboration combining the niche expertise of the RSC Food Group and the Separation Science Group. Networking at Burlington House: Engage with the global analytical community in the prestigious and historic library of the RSC.
