Chemometrics Open Day 2023
Il Gruppo Divisionale di Chemiometria della Divisione di Chimica Analitica della Società Chimica Italiana organizza un appuntamento per l’approfondimento di tematiche di interesse chemiometrico: Chemometrics Open Day – La Chemiometria oggi, che si svolgerà giovedì 9 febbraio 2023 dalle ore 9.00.
Alla opening lecture del prof. Telmo Pievani (filosofo della Scienza, evoluzionista e divulgatore scientifico), seguirà una sessione di presentazioni e testimonianze dell’utilizzo e applicazione della chemiometria in vari contesti industriali ed infine un momento di discussione.
Informazioni e form per la registrazione all’evento sono disponibili al seguente link: https://www.gruppochemiometria.it/index.php/chemometrics-open-day
Identification of photodegradation products of Escitalopram
We have developed a new analytical method for the identification of photodegradation products of Escitalopram, details are published here: Termopoli, V., Consonni, V., Ballabio, D., Todeschini, R., Orlandi, M., Gosetti, F. (2022) Identification of photodegradation products of Escitalopram in surface water by HPLC-MS/MS and preliminary characterization of their potential impact on the environment, Separations, 9, 289 [link]
Geochemical study of sulfide minerals persistence in the sedimentary records
Today Emmanuel Cruz discussed the results after the first year of his PhD project “Geochemical study of sulfide minerals persistence in the sedimentary records” here at Milano Chemometrics and QSAr Research Group. Looking forward to see what’s next!
