About APCE 2025 & CECE

Welcome To APCE 2025!

20th Asia-Pacific International Symposium on Microscale Separations and Analysis

The APCE series has become one of the international conferences in Separation Science and Analytical Science as well as the related topics since the first symposium held in 1996 in Singapore. This symposium will focus on the fundamental aspects of chromatography, mass spectrometry, electrophoresis, microfluidic chip, biosensor, GC/LC/ CE/chip-MS and sample pre-treatment. The emphasis will be paid on the relevant applications in genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, protein drug quality control, food safety, environmental analysis and biotechnology as well as medical analysis.

CECE

CECE started in 2004 as a friendly meeting of colleagues from Prague, Vienna, Bratislava, and Brno. The name CECE initially reflected the presentations by Bob Gas, Dusan Kaniansky, and Ernst Kenndler on capillary electrophoresis. The scope of the meeting has expanded since then, and the name CECE (pronounce "che, che") now doesn't imply any particular technique. Today, CECE aims at bringing in distinguished analytical scientists to present the newest trends in their research fields.
