9. CPAC CONTINUES TO REFLECT ON INDUSTRY NEEDS  SAMPLING  MIXING EFFICIENCY  CLEANING VALIDATION  PARTICLE SIZING  CHEMICAL COMPOSITION (molecular, spatial)  COATING CONSISTENCY  VAPOR CHARACTERIZATION  VISCOSITY / RHEOMETRICS  MOISTURE CONCENTRATION  BIOASSAY

10. A CPAC STRATEGIC RESEARCH OBJECTIVE IN 1996  DEVELOP VERSATILE MICRO- ANALYTICAL SYSTEMS (VMAS) THAT WILL ENHANCE PROCESS OPTIMIZATION, MONITORING, MODELING AND CONTROL

11. SOME RELEVANT CURRENT CPAC RESEARCH TO SUPPORT VMAS MICRO-LC SURFACE TENSION DETECTION GCxGC FRINGE FIELD SENSORS VAPOCHROMIC SENSORS RAMAN GRATED LIGHT REFLECTIVE SPECTROSCOPY REFLECTOMETRY FLOW-THROUGH PARTICLE ANALYZER SURFACE PLASMON RESONANCE MINI-NMR ULTRASOUND DATA HANDLING

12. CPAC INITIATIVES OPEN -NEW SAMPLING AND SENSOR INITIATIVE (NeSSI) -CONNECTIVITY INTIATIVE (ConnI) -CHEMOMETRICS ON-LINE INITIATIVE (COPA) CLOSED -MICRO-INSTRUMENTATION FOR HIGH THROUGHPUT EXPERIMENTATION -FERMENTATION MONITORING AND CONTROL (FermI)

13. MISSING LINK IDENTIFIED IN 1997, BRUCE KOWALSKI WROTE AN ARTICLE THAT QUESTIONED WHO WOULD SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW MEASUREMENT TECHNOLOGY INTO A USEFUL INSTRUMENT.

15. The NeSSI Platform Will Also Become the Base for a Micro-Analytical Lab ‘A DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM’ NMR MS NIR RAMAN LC GC FIA Particle Size Viscosity Moisture Conductivity Mass Flow

16. NeSSI with an Array of Micro- Analytical Techniques will Impact Many Industries Process Control Process Optimization Product Development

17. This will provide Real Time Analytical for: Molecular Characterization (composition conformation) Validation of sample conditions Analytical Method development Improved sample turn-around time, cost Expanded use can be envisioned
