Biomedical applications of bacteriophages, including diagnosis, prevention, and therapy, as an alternative tool against multidrug-resistant bacteria. Isolation and characterization of novel phages, directed evolution for phage optimization, resistant emergence, and nanotechnology.
The current analytic chemistry and the adaptation of the new available instrumentation to research, allows the detection and characterisation of compounds at very low concentration levels, allowing the study of emerging pollulants, which only a few years ago was not possible to detect.
Aimed at developing the validation strategies for the analytical parameters of a procedure.
New analysis strategies in miniaturised chromatographic techniques which incorporate solid phase microextraction in tubes with new (nano)materials.
The research is planned in two directions: nanomaterials characterisation including strategies for its detection and/or analytic determination and the study of its characteristics and its influence in the improvement of analytic parameters.
Persigue desarrollar conocimiento científico que genere nuevas herramientas que se adapten a las necesidades actuales de la sociedad. Los beneficios que pueden aportar son: bajo coste, no consumen energía, versatilidad del emplazamiento, uso puntual, evaluación de grandes áreas con resolución específica.
Monitoring natural and anthropogenic environments for disease surveillance, specially viral outbreaks. Detection of emerging viruses in natural environments and development of quantification techniques for population monitoring. Study of new transmission routes of emerging viruses.
