The detection of biological and chemical contaminants - preferably as rapidly and reliably as
possible - is extremely important in managing the safety of food, feed and the environment. Developments in analytical techniques have led to the emergence of a wide range of rapid methods to
complement the traditional methods. At the same time, the importance of method validation, proficiency testing, quality management and sampling have all become more widely recognised.
Rapid Methods Europe 2004 - the international conference and marktplace - presents a firm base and structured framework for considering rapid methods for detecting biological and chemical
contaminants. After a scene-setting general introduction, the various sessions look at specific issues in more detail. The case studies, spotlight presentations, poster sessions and market
place/commercial exhibition build on this by looking at specific rapid analytical techniques in use, in development or becoming commercially available. As a comprehensive overview
Rapid Methods Europe 2004 provides a reference source for anyone interested in the rapid detection of biological and chemical contaminants in food, feed and the environment. Rapid
Methods Europe 2004 is aimed at a wide range of scientists and technologists wishing to gain insight into rapid methods for biological and chemical contaminants in food, feed and the environment.
Attendance will be invaluable for analysts, technical managers, laboratory managers, food safety and quality assurance/quality control managers. The members of the Organising Committee
look forward to welcoming you to Noordwijk aan Zee, the Netherlands! |
