    New cationic heptamethinecyanine-graphene hybrid materials

    The innovative study was published in “Dyes and Pigments” and represents the collaborative research of the ICB/NHRF researchers: Dr. K.C. Prousis, Dr. V. Zoumpourlis, and Dr. T. Calogeropoulou as well asthe TPCI/NHRF researcher Dr. N. Tagmatarchis. The study involves the design and synthesis of new heptamethinecyanine dyes and their hybrids with exfoliated graphene having potential bioapplications and in particular the photothermal therapy of cancer.

    Amphiphilic block copolymers attract the scientific interest of the scientific community because of their ability to form self-assembling nanostructures in solutions and interfaces responsive to external stimuli. These nanostructures find applications, inter alia, in the transport / delivery of pharmaceuticals and in surface modification. The scientific team of Dr. Asterios (Stergios) Pispas, the Theoretical and Physical Chemistry Institute (TPCI/NHRF), synthesized novel amphiphilic PLA-b-PNIPAM block copolymers that respond to temperature changes.

    We met the Associate Researcher of TPCI/NHRF, Dr. Emmanouel Klontzas, who talked to us about the Sector of  Theoretical and Computational Chemistry and Physics in which he belongs to. He explained to us on the role of his research to the comprehension of atoms, molecules and materials as well as to the moderation of climate change effects, through designing materials with the capacity of selectively blocking gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect.
