Food Authenticity Workshop Hamburg 2025
Decoding Food Authenticity: Advancing Food Analysis Through Analytical Excellence
Join Bruker and the Hamburg School of Food Science, University of Hamburg, for an immersive and insightful workshop dedicated to advancing the science of food authenticity through mass spectrometry. This event brings together leading experts, researchers, and industry professionals to explore the latest developments, methodologies, and applications in the field.
Over the course of the workshop, participants will gain valuable knowledge on key topics such as:
- Authentication of food material with DART-MS and LC-MS
- Adulteration analysis with DART-MS/MS
- Analysis of food origin with UHPLC-TIMS-QTOF-MS and HS-SPME-GC-MS
- Case studies from industry and academia
We are honored to welcome distinguished speakers including Prof. Markus Fischer (University of Hamburg), Prof. Jens Brockmeyer (University of Stuttgart), Dr. Sofia Drakopoulou (University of Athens) and Dr. Linda Monaci (National Research Council (IBIOM-CNR)), who will share their expertise and insights on cutting-edge research and real-world applications.
This workshop is part of an ongoing series that began in 2023 with our inaugural event in Athens. Each edition brings together leading minds in food science to explore the latest in mass spectrometry and food analysis. Click here to explore highlights from the Athens workshop.
