Synthesis (solid state, room temperature) of calcium phosphates such as apatite Ca5(PO4)3(F, Cl, OH) o tricalcium phosphate Ca3(PO4)3 and their structural characterization through techniques of X-ray diffraction, vibrational spectroscopy such...
Geomaterials such as phosphates, silicates, borates, are carefully investigated through crystal-chemical characterization based on XRD, FTIR, Raman and SEM-EDS microscopy. The obtained results make up the basis for the development...
The alteration of proteostasis, i.e the control of the proteome integrity, is the basis of many diseases (eg cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and diabetes). The research activity is aimed at the...
The aim is to support a paradigm shift which recognizes the need to address health issues from a holistic point of view, e.g. considering the nexus between soil health and...
Due to the population aging, social assistance and health system have to respond with an integrated approach, aimed to maintain, or regain where it has been lost, the maximum autonomy...
The IC researchers collaborated in the development, qualification and clinical use of new customized and / or adaptable immobilization devices realized in polymeric material.
The research activity is focused on molecular mechanisms involved in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression with particular attention to the role of Amyloid-beta (Aβ) in both physiological/pre-clinical conditions and AD pathology.
The Protein Expression laboratory contains all the facilities needed to produce heterologous proteins from E. Coli or appropriately engineered bacteria through the common molecular biology techniques. The growth of bacteria...
The spectroscopy laboratory is dedicated to the biophysical characterization of macromolecules of biological interest. The instrumentation in use, associated with that of the thermodynamic laboratory, allows us to provide structural...
