2018 EAS PRELMINARY PROGRAM

Message from the President of the Governing Board

As I visit Panama for a different conference than EAS where over 30 separate countries are represented, and I wear headphones to hear a translation of some of the Spanish speakers, I am struck by just how pertinent the theme of EAS 2018, Analytical Solutions to the World’s Problems, is. Eastern Analytical uses English as the main conference language but the problems that are presented to the analytical community and discussed at EAS are world-wide and transcend the boundaries of legal borders and a chosen language. As scientists, we solve problems based on our interests, our funding and our employment. As citizens of the world, typically, our families, our health, our homes, our environment, our world, are broadly shared. Visiting the Panama Canal where a vast man-made lake contributes to the wonder of the locks letting massive ships travel across the middle of a continent, it is easy to see how decisions made by us, the world inhabitants, to solve one problem can cause other problems to appear. The indigenous animals in the

jungles flooded by Lake Gatun, are now sequestered on the former hills of this flooded jungle, they survive and have adapted to this over 100-year-old invasion of their home with new roles as tourist attractions to visitors of the Panama region. The EAS program this year offers a multitude of analytical solutions to the problems of our world, whether societally created, technology or industrially generated or just results of our extensive interests as scientists. Presentations on pharmaceutical, environmental, clinical, conservation, food, forensics, regulations, proteomics and public health are planned with experts in each of these fields offering state-of-the-art solutions. We have started to make EAS into a sustainable green conference with some specific green initiatives this year. Dr. John Warner, founder of the Warner Babcock Institute for Green Chemistry and our Keynote speaker will present on green chemistry technologies and lead off our green sustainable efforts. Our plenary lecture will be given by the EAS Fields awardee, Professor Linda P. McGown of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Dr. McGown is the William Weightman Walker Chair of Chemistry and Chemical Biology. She is being recognized for her solutions to the fields of separation science, the analysis of DNA sequences and recognizing the importance of aptamers as potential pharmaceutical substances. We know the traffic can be tough in the morning coming to EAS, but perhaps you would like to take the early approach to arrive before the traffic starts, get an awesome parking spot and listen to a breakfast lecture from Dr. Mark Schure on the current state of 2D liquid chromatography. Along with these topically focused presentations, as in all great analytical meetings, highly advanced presentations about leading analytical technologies are included. Please check out our list of Short Course offerings, we have provided some new titles that should pique your interest for either one or two days of continuing education. I look forward to you joining us from November 12th to 14th in Princeton this year!!

Mary Ellen McNally 2018 EAS President p.s. As special thanks for thinking green, if you travel in a group or with just one other colleague or friend to EAS 2018, we will have a special gift for everyone in the car.

STUDENT SEMINARS

EAS offers four seminars essentially for high school students and teachers during the November meeting. Each seminar has outstanding presenters from academia and industry. The goal of each seminar is to demonstrate the advantages of a career in chemistry. The 2018 seminar registration is FREE for middle & high school students with their teachers; seminars are included in the Full-Time Student Conferee registration fee of $30. We encourage all students to attend the Exposition after the seminar & pick up an EAS souvenir.

Prepare Your Students for General Chemistry: A Workshop for High School Science Teachers

Sunday, November 11, 2018 Registration Limited to TEACHERS ONLY

1:00 pm to 4:00 pm This workshop will be taught by Professor Gene S. Hall, Rutgers University, and other faculty from other colleges. The objective of the workshop is to assist high school teachers in preparing their students to transition to taking general chemistry at a college. Suggestions for laboratory experiments will be presented for those school districts with challenged educational budgets. Information on obtaining grants to purchase equipment and chemistry software will also be discussed.

Non-Destructive Forensic Examination of Banknotes and Counterfeit Consumer Products

Monday, November 12, 2018 10:00 am to 12:30 pm

This seminar will be presented by Prof. Gene S. Hall, .Rutgers University. This seminar demonstrates the exciting world of non-destructive analytical chemistry with applications in forensic science.

1764 -Time Present: The Chemistry of Paper and Plastic Banknotes as Seen Through The Eyes of an Analytical Chemist This presentation focuses on the chemistry of paper and plastic banknotes using non-destructive analytical techniques such as micro Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF), micro Raman Spectroscopy, and Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR) Fourier Transform Mid Infrared (FT-MIR) spectroscopy. Prof. Hall will share with the audience how non-destructive analytical chemistry was used to solve the problem of characterizing a so called “perfect counterfeit $100 bill”. Applications of Chemometrics to data interpretation will also be discussed using digital spectral libraries. It also shows how these experiments can be conducted in the high school chemistry laboratory environment using inexpensive home built analytical instrumentation.

Non-Destructive Analytical Instrumentation for the Characterization of Counterfeit Consumer Products This presentation will focus on using non-destructive analytical techniques such as micro Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF), micro Raman Spectroscopy, and Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR) Fourier Transform Mid Infrared (FT-MIR) spectroscopy to characterize counterfeit consumer products. Professor Hall will share with the audience how non-destructive analytical chemistry was used to solve the problem of distinguishing between counterfeit watches, handbags, printing ink cartridges, krill oil dietary supplements, and collectors’ dolls.

STUDENT SEMINARS continued

Chemical Research at the Interface between Science and Art: Analytical Chemistry and Materials Science at the Metropolitan Museum of Art

Tuesday, November 13, 2018 10:00 am to 12:30 pm

This seminar presented by Dr. Marco Leona, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY.

What have Tutankhamun funerary linens in common with Nadal socks after a Roland Garros final? What can a speck of pink tell us about the mysterious old woman depicted in a first century Roman statue? What brought more wealth to Spain than Mexican gold? Why there were no Japanese landscape prints before 1820? Who is really responsible for Hokusai’s masterpieces? What is the color of modernity?

The quest for beauty is a fundamental constant in human history, as well as an economic engine, and an inspiration for art and technology alike.

While we easily see that the desire to produce richer and more lively images is a motivation to explore the world find and new materials (in mines or forests, or in the crucibles of the alchemist), we often overlook the science behind art.

Using advanced analytical instrumentation (Raman, X-Ray Fluorescence, Infrared Spectroscopy, Electron Microscopy, Mass spectrometry), we can build a material history of art based on physical evidence gathered from masterpieces spanning four millennia, from ancient Egypt to Modernity. Twenty-first century analytical chemistry shows us that technological developments were not only readily embraced, and often prompted by artists and their audiences, but also that they in turn created new forms of expression.

Forensic Identification: Crime Scene Reconstruction and DNA Analysis Wednesday, November 14, 2018

10:00 am to 12:00 pm This seminar, organized by Faculty of the Cedar Crest College Forensic Science Program, will walk students through a variety of crime scene related analysis as well as analysis of DNA samples collected at crime scenes. Students will learn the basics in crime scene processing, evidence collection and bloodstain pattern analysis. Information on modern DNA forensic analysis will be presented in order to demonstrate how DNA profiles are determined and used to aid in crime scene reconstruction. Carol Ritter will discuss Crime Scene Processing, Evidence Collection, Reconstruction of Crime Scenes and Janine Kishbaugh will present DNA Analysis.
