We wish to thank each and every one of you!

The Conference ISRANALYTICA 2011, the 14th Annual Meeting of the Israel Analytical Chemistry Society and the Exhibition took place according to the formed already tradition, in February 7-8, 2011, at the David Intercontinental Hotel, Tel-Aviv, Israel. This year Isranalytica 2011 was a major part of the "week of chemistry 2011" celebration

The annual meetings of the Israel Analytical Chemical Society have become one of the largest annual conferences in analytical chemistry in the World. About 3000 participants from academia, the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, petrochemistry and food industry, biochemistry and biology, water experts, engineers, quality managers and metrologists from major laboratories and companies from Israel and from about 20 other countries, attended. About 60 leading companies of analytical equipment have also successfully participated in the conference and exhibition bridging between technology developments and end users. In fact, ISRANALYTICA combines the largest chemistry convention in Israel with the largest analytical chemistry exhibition in one location.

ISRANALYTICA has been recognized by the International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE), and the Cooperation for International Traceability in Analytical Chemistry (CITAC).

The scientific program consisted this year of 4 plenary lectures, 14 keynote lectures, 56 lectures delivered by international top scientists and a special "meet the regulator" sessions delivered by top regulatory experts, and a poster session.

Three prestigious poster awards were granted by the Conference Organizing Committee to the outstanding posters in the general assembly of the Israel Analytical Chemistry Society.

The remarkable success of ISRANALYTICA was primarily due to the participants submitted their presentations, presented their analytical equipment through one of the exhibition booths, or simply attended the conference. It was an exciting, interesting and fruitful meeting.
