Branched polymers, pH and thermosensitive nanosystems for biomedical application
Research Fields:
Biology & Biochemistry
Chemistry
Clinical Medicine
Physics
Previous and Current Research
We are focused on fundamental aspects of synthesis and characterization of branched uncharged polymers, polyelectrolytes and stimuli responsible branched polymers in solution as well as hydrogels and nanosystems synthesized in situ into these polymer matrices. We study the response of these complicated systems towards external stimuli ( pH, T ...) and their applications mainly in biomaterials or drug delivery fields.
Branched polymer matrices have various chemical nature and internal structure, higher local concentration of functional groups in comparison with their linear analogue, and they can be very efficient for designing of optimized nanocarriers-nanosystems for medical applications and for water treatment. We are working in collaboration with physicists and biologists.
