The group’s research activity focuses on the design, preparation and characterisation of any type of organic molecules, both natural and synthetic substances, and their use for various biotechnological applications. These include, fundamentally, obtaining antibodies and developing immunoassays for the determination of analytes of interest in agri-food and environmental samples, and the development and scaling of the synthesis of pheromones for its application in ecological integrated control of agricultural pests.
To deepen the knowledge and factors influencing the development of immunoassays for natural toxins and xenobiotics.
- Development of immunoassays for pesticide determination: Hapten synthesis, standardisation and validation
The research line covers all stages involved in the development of an immunoassay, design and synthesis of target analyte analogues (haptens), preparation of immunisation and assay conjugates, production of antibodies, development and validation of the immunoassay.
- Synthesis, scaling and applications of agrichemical compounds
The research line focuses on the optimisation of the synthesis of agrichemicals of the type of pheromones and parapheromones for their industrial scale-up and their application in the control of agricultural pests.
