 This thesis aimed to fabricate hybrid (organic-inorganic) complex materials as drug carriers  using supercritical fluids. For that purpose, two main objectives have been addressed: first, evaluation of the potentiality of porous silica-based materials synthesized without using porogenic agents as drug delivery systems; and second, exploiting the utility of SCFs in the synthesis and functionalization of those materials. During the realization of this work, silica-based nanostructured materials have been synthesized, loaded with a model drug, physical and chemically modified on their surface, and their interaction with relevant biological entities and media were investigated.

 

MULING DEFEND HER PhD THESIS TOMORROW!

Muling Zeng has spent three years in our group and tomorrow will be her big day!

She will defend a PhD thesis entitled  “Bacterial cellulose: fabrication, characterization and biocompatibility studies”
