Welcome from the Chair
Dear Colleagues,
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 1st International Online Conference on Analytica (IOCANA 2027), organized by MDPI open access journal Analytica (ISSN 2673-4532; IF: 3.6). This inaugural gathering brings together researchers, professionals, and industry experts from around the world to explore the latest advancements in the dynamic field of Analytical Chemistry and all related fields. Our virtual platform enables global accessibility and encourages the sharing of insights, techniques, and innovations that drive progress across various domains of the field.
The IOCANA 2027, held during 10–12 March 2027, will explore a diverse range of cutting-edge topics, including extraction, instrument configurations, green analytical chemistry, sorbents, sample preparation, and applications. With these focus areas, the conference promises to provide a comprehensive overview of the methods and materials that are shaping the future of the Analytical Chemistry.
Our program is organized into six specialized sessions:
S1. Sample Preparation and New Trends
S2. Hyphenated Instrument Configurations
S3. Advances in Analytical Spectroscopy and Spectrometry: Innovations in Instrument Configuration
S4. Advanced Chromatographic Techniques: Instrument Configuration, Optimization, and Performance
S5. Innovations and Applications of Electroanalytical Instrumentation: From Bench-Top to Portable Systems
S6. Applications of Analytical Chemistry
Each session provides a unique opportunity to engage deeply with specific aspects of Analytical Chemistry, examining both fundamental principles and practical applications.
We look forward to the lively discussions and collaborations that will emerge from this gathering and to the shared commitment to advancing our field through innovation and sustainable practices. Thank you for joining us for this exciting event, and we wish you a productive and inspiring conference experience.
Kind regards,
Prof. Dr. Marcello Locatelli

It is the author's responsibility to identify and declare any personal circumstances or interests that may be perceived as inappropriately influencing the representation or interpretation of clinical research. If there is no conflict, please state "The authors declare no conflicts of interest." This should be conveyed in a separate "Conflict of Interest" statement preceding the "Acknowledgments" and "References" sections at the end of the manuscript. Any financial support for the study must be fully disclosed in the "Acknowledgments" section.
MDPI, the publisher of the Sciforum.net platform, is an open access publisher. We believe authors should retain the copyright to their scholarly works. Hence, by submitting an abstract to this conference, you retain the copyright to the work, but you grant MDPI the non-exclusive right to publish this abstract online on the Sciforum.net platform. This means you can easily submit your full paper (with the abstract) to any scientific journal at a later stage and transfer the copyright to its publisher if required.
Publication Opportunity
Analytica Journal Publication
Participants in this conference are cordially invited to contribute a full manuscript to the conference's Special Issue (to be updated), published in Analytica (ISSN: 2673-4532, Impact Factor: 3.6), with a 20% discount on the publication fee.
Please note, if you have IOAP/association discounts, conference discounts will be combined with IOAP/association discounts. Conference discounts cannot be combined with reviewer vouchers.
All submitted papers will undergo MDPI’s standard peer-review procedure. The abstracts should be cited and noted on the first page of the paper.
