Foreword to the Proceedings of International Ion Chromatography Symposium, San Diego, CA 1990

Abstract

he International Zon Chromatography Symposium 1990 (IICS ‘90) was held at the historic and beautiful Hotel de1 Coronado in Coronado, CA, U.S.A. from 1-3 October, 1990. IICS ‘90 was the largest meeting on ion chromatography (IC) yet held and was attended by over 250 scientists from 13 countries and featured 65 oral presentations and 20 posters. In the past, a number of smaller IC conference series have been offered, including the Sils-Maria meetings organized by the late Professor Roland Frei, the Ion Chromatography Forums held in Boston, and other regional meetings. IICS ‘90 arose as an amalgamation of these conferences and was designed to be a focus meeting for ion chromatographers by bringing together the world leaders in the field and by offering a comprehensive coverage of all aspects of the technique.
