EPNOE 2013 Conference: Beware of the new dates: 21-24 October 2013
The European Polysaccharide Network of Excellence (EPNOE) and the Cellulose and Renewable Materials division of the American Chemical Society (ACS) invite you to the 3rd EPNOE International Polysaccharide Conference (EPNOE 2013) that will be held in Nice, France, on October 21-24, 2013. The EPNOE 2013 conference, entitled “Polysaccharides and polysaccharide-derived products, from basic science to applications”, will offer a wide scope of the science of polysaccharides and their applications. EPNOE and ACS are expecting EPNOE 2013 to be a forum for all academic/research/industrial scientists and students dealing with polysaccharides and polysaccharide-derived products including bioplastics. The following topics will be covered at the EPNOE 2013 conference:
1. Polysaccharide isolation and characterization (algae, new crops and plants, byproducts, wastes, other sources…) 2. Biosynthesis of polysaccharides 3. Biodegradation of polysaccharides (mechanisms, products determination, efficiency), enzymology 4. Chemical modification of polysaccharides 5. Advanced physical, chemical, structural, and surface characterisation of polysaccharides 6. Nanotechnology: nano and micro- polysaccharide-based objects (production, characterisation, use) 7. Biomimetic applications of polysaccharides 8. Development of fuels based on polysaccharides 9. Polysaccharides as food ingredients 10. Polysaccharides for biomedical applications 11. Polysaccharide-based materials including films, fibers and composites 12. Bioplastics 13. Pulp and paper 14. Life Cycle Assessments- Environmental concerns –Policy – Social aspects 15. New trends on polysaccharide research and applications (session organised by PhD students and post-doctoral researchers from EPNOE partners).
