Pittcon 2026 scientific programme
Markes and SepSolve | 9–11 March 2026 | San Antonio, USA
Scientists from Markes and SepSolve will be contributing to the Pittcon 2026 technical programme with a series of oral presentations and posters covering key GC–MS applications. Topics span environmental monitoring, food and beverage analysis, petrochemicals, hydrogen fuels, materials, and advanced data interpretation.
You can also visit us during the conference at Booth #1537, where our technical experts will be available to discuss applications and workflows, with a particular focus on US EPA Method 325 for fenceline air monitoring.
