A study published in Nature Chemistry, researchers at Politecnico di Milano, Madrid Institute for Advanced Studies in Nanoscience (IMDEA Nanociencia), Autonomous University and Complutense University of Madrid unveil new insights into the ultrafast dynamics of molecular systems using attosecond extreme-ultraviolet pulses. The research offers new perspective on complicated interplay between electrons and nuclei in donor-acceptor molecules. exposing nitroaniline molecules to attosecond pulses, the research team has been able to observe and analyze the earliest stages of charge transfer with unprecedented precision. This study employs a combination of cutting-edge techniques, including attosecond extreme-ultraviolet-pump/few-femtoseconds infrared-probe spectroscopy and advanced many-body quantum chemistry calculations, to capture the dynamics of these rapid processes. #science #spectroscopy #research #IMDEA #PHARMACY #Experiment #new

🚀 Exciting Milestone in My Research Journey! 🚀 I'm excited to share that our research paper, "Detection of Highly Sensitive Escherichia coli (E. coli) Bacteria Using an Electrochemical Sensor Based on Zinc Oxide/Polyvinyl Alcohol Nanocomposite," has been accepted in a Q1 journal! This research, closely related to my undergraduate thesis, explores the use of electrochemical methods for detecting E. coli, a Gram negative bacterium, by utilizing a ZnO/PVA nanocomposite based sensor. The study leverages cyclic voltammetry (CV) to analyze bacterial presence through I-V curves, offering insight into potential high sensitivity applications. It's been a rewarding journey working with innovative nanomaterials in detection technology, and I’m thrilled to have been part of this project from experimentation to publication.

Another cover design from my little studio! This one is inspired by the work of Daniele Leonori and his team (and also Da Vinci), that recently got published in Nature on photochemical permutation chemistry for thiazoles and isothiazoles. In this paper, they tackles a significant challenge in the synthesis of these crucial molecules, which are often used in drug and agrochemical discovery. Traditional methods for synthesizing thiazoles and isothiazoles can be cumbersome and inefficient, but the authors introduce a novel approach using photochemical irradiation to alter the structure of these molecules in a selective and predictable manner. Here are the main highlights of this research: ⏣ The use of photochemical irradiation allows for the conversion of easily accessible thiazole and isothiazole derivatives into more complex and difficult-to-access isomers. ⏣ This method, called "permutation chemistry," enables the synthesis of a wide variety of molecules from a single precursor, significantly expanding the number of accessible analogues for screening libraries. ⏣ The researchers demonstrated that the directionality of these permutations can be controlled by varying the solvent and additives, with minimal impact from electronic effects.

Participated in National Conference on TRENDS IN MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH: CHALLENGES AND APPLICATION. Held at M S Ramaiah college of arts science and commerce. Presenting the cutting-edge research on topic Synthesis of Iron oxide nanoparticles using Azadirachta indica(Neem leaves) shared innovative findings on specific aspect of research. Nanomaterials find important applications in modern science due to their versatile properties as it's size ranges from 1-100nm.The phytochemicals found in plant extracts enable the precursor substrate i.e (Ferric chloride hexahydrate)to undergo redox reactions to finally produce Iron oxide nanoparticles(Fe304)of various shapes, sizes and forms.Upon production of the nanoparticles, the pellet collected appeared black in color. Engaging with fellow experts and receiving valuable feedback was an incredible experience, further commitment to advancing knowledge in Nanobiotechnology.

University of Chicago researchers have developed a faster way to create nanoporous membranes for water filtration. The new method, developed by Prof. Chong Liu's team, creates multiple sub-nanometer pores simultaneously instead of the traditional one-at-a-time approach. The method uses polycrystalline molybdenum disulfide with pre-designed weak spots, allowing researchers to control the size and location of pores when an electric field is applied. This precise control makes the membranes promising for water purification and resource recovery, including extracting valuable materials like lithium. The work is being commercialized through UChicago's Polsky Center. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eB5TpNrC #WaterTechnology #Innovation #Research

Accelerated Training in Molecular Dynamics (MD) and Density Functional Theory (DFT)for Advanced Research Researchers at the Bio and Emerging Technology Institute have undergone comprehensive training on the applications of computer simulations via molecular dynamics methods and Density Functional Theory (DFT) across several key domains in biotechnology and materials science research: Drug delivery systems, Drug design, Protein structure prediction, Advanced materials property prediction, electronic structure calculations, Computer simulations have become an indispensable tool for modern scientific research, allowing researchers to model complex systems and phenomena that are difficult or impossible to study experimentally. By coupling theoretical and computational approaches, researchers can gain deeper insights and accelerate the pace of discovery.
