In 2022, the 32nd edition of the International Conference on Diamond and Carbon Materials will be held in Lisbon, Portugal. The meeting will continue to feature high level research on a wide range of carbon-based materials.

Besides the traditional focus on diamond, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, novel research on other carbon-based materials will be highlighted. This meeting traditionally spans the complete spectrum from materials preparation, over fundamental physical and chemical concepts, to applied research zooming in on novel device concepts making use of the remarkable properties of carbon materials.

Special Issue on the 18th Annual Workshop On Emerging High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (Hrms) And Lc-Ms/Ms Applications In Environmental Analysis And Food Safety (HRMS EnviroFood 2022)

This special issue aims at bringing together the video presentations of the 18th Annual Workshop On Emerging High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (Hrms) And Lc-Ms/Ms Applications In Environmental Analysis And Food Safety (HRMS EnviroFood 2022).

Special issue information:

The 18th workshop on emerging high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and LC-MS/MS applications in environmental analysis and food safety is held as in-person participation on 11-12 October 2022 in Barcelona, Spain.

The main objectives of the workshop is to evaluate practical aspects of the usefulness of high-resolution mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometric techniques for screening and quantitation of organic contaminants in the environmental and food samples.

The list of topics is included below:

Advances in HRMS instrumentation and their applicability in environmental and food analysis for small and large molecules (proteomics)
Advantages, comparison and complementarities of advanced MS instruments (tandem and hybrid) in the quantitative and qualitative determination of complex environmental and food samples
Non-Target Analysis (NTA) and Bioinformatics
Green sample preparation technologies for food and environmental analysis
Large number of applications in environmental analysis, basically water and soil/sediment, biota and food, like fruits and vegetables, juices and meat.
Wastewater Based Epidemiology
Broad range of contaminants and their transformation products
