Analytica Anacon India in Hyderabad will open its gates for the fifth time on 29 September 2009.
From then until 1 October 2009, representatives from the sectors for instrumental analysis, laboratory technology, diagnostics and biotechnology will have a chance to gather information on the latest innovations.
Companies that have already registered for the event include Buchi, Eppendorf, Millipore, Netzsch Geratebau, Thermo Fisher, Shimadzu and Spinco.
In addition, several new exhibitors from India and other countries will also be participating at this year's fair.
Besides a German Pavilion, joint exhibits are also planned for companies from China, Great Britain and the Czech Republic.
'The fifth Analytica Anacon India will give companies an international platform where they can present the latest developments in the sectors for biotechnology, analysis, chemicals and pharmaceuticals and for the food industry,' said Klaus Dittrich, managing director of Messe Munchen.
'Rapidly growing interest underscores India's significance as an investment and sales market and demonstrates why more and more companies want to position themselves on the subcontinent,' he added.
In addition to the trade fair, exhibitors and visitors can also attend the Analytica Anacon Conference on two days of the fair.
The conference is organised by the Indian Analytical Instruments Association (IAIA).
It gives scientists a platform where they can exchange information about the latest findings and developments.
The primary focus of the 2009 conference is life science/biotechnology and quality control/assurance in food production and environmental analysis.
These themes are also reflected in the 24 planned lectures that will be given by Indian and international speakers.
