Description

SOLINQUIANA is a research group of the Department of Analytical Chemistry of the University of Valencia that develops, validates and applies new methods of analysis by atomic, chromatographic and molecular techniques, and aims to develop a sustainable analytical chemistry. The group, led by professors Miguel de la Guardia, Agustín Pastor, Salvador Garrigues, María Luisa Cervera, Ángel Morales and Sergio Armenta, is made up of a large number of doctors and students from Valencia and from Germany, Brazil, Morocco and other countries, who work in the Jeroni Muñoz building on the Burjassot Campus.

The research activity carried out by this group consists of the development of analytical methods for the resolution of problems ranging from the control of environmental pollution in water, air, sediments and biota, to the assurance of food quality and the clinical diagnosis of diseases by means of chemical analysis, as well as industrial analysis.

The different lines of work of the SOLINQUIANA group are aimed at:

  1. enhance sample preparation alternatives based on microwave systems and ultrasonic and pressurised fluid extraction, in closed and miniaturised systems;
  2. evaluate the capacity for trace element speciation from direct measurements and appropriate signal processing;
  3. reduce the sample preparation, clean-up and determination steps in chromatographic analysis by enhancing the use of membranes as passive sampling devices, applying thermal desorption and the headspace technique (HS);
  4. use of automation to minimise the consumption of reagents and waste generated and develop portable equipment for in-situ acquisition of measurements;
  5. direct analysis of samples for the determination of major, minor and trace components by vibrational spectrometry and development of screening methods based on direct measurements and chemometric signal processing;
  6. applying analytical techniques to archaeometric studies and studies of samples of historical interest.

The research carried out by the SOLINQUIANA Group is encompassed in the following general lines of action:

  • Sampling and sample preparation
  • Elemental analysis and speciation
  • Chromatographic analysis
  • Automation
  • Vibrational spectrometry
  • Chemometrics
  • Green Analytical Chemistry
  • Archaeochemistry

SOLINQUIANA maintains a spirit of scientific development and service to Valencian society and, through a consultancy service, provides support to the Regional Ministry of Health and Valencian companies.

Goals CT
  • Development of sustainable analytical applications for the resolution of all types of analytical problems.
  • Transfer of research results to socio-economic areas of society.
