Advances in thermal desorption sampling and analysis

Date: 21 April 2026 | Location: Peterborough, UK

Free-to-attend (lunch provided) - registration required

Join us for a one-day technical symposium designed to help you understand how Thermal Desorption (TD) can be applied effectively within modern GC–MS workflows. We will explore the principles, performance benefits, and practical considerations behind this solvent-free sample introduction approach.

Why attend

• Learn the fundamentals of TD, and its varied use across a range of application areas to improve target and non-target analysis

• Hear directly from leading academic and industrial speakers who use TD in their work

• See TD technologies in action during guided lab sessions

• Experience intelligent software tools, including MTS Pro, designed to accelerate and simplify TD-GC-MS data interpretation

Symposium highlights

• Fundamentals of TD – including environmental and regulatory workflows (e.g. TO-17, TO-15, PFAS)

• Applications spotlight – environmental/H&S, fragrance, plastics/polymers, breath

• Technology insights – updates on TD sampling technologies and an exclusive preview of an upcoming product launch

• Lab tour & demonstrations – live instrumentation and software in action

• Tips & Tricks -  Get the best from your TD-GC-MS workflow

Speakers include

Our programme brings together technical experts from Markes alongside guest speakers from industry and academia, including:

• Health and Safety Executive (HSE)
• Celanese
• Imperial College London
• Unilever

An agenda will follow shortly
