Functionalization of graphene and antibacterial properties
Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology

- Our research group focused on the synthesis and development of various well-designed nanomaterials with specific size, shape and applications.
- Our research group focus on the following applications of the prepared nanomaterials:
- Targeted drug and gene delivery for cancer therapy especially, carbon nanomaterials (CNTs, graphene, carbon nanodots) and other lipid nanoparticles.
- Brain targeted drug delivery through nasal administration of soft nanoparticles for neurodegenerative diseases.
- The development of adequate scaffolds based on carbon nanomaterials for the tissue engineering.
- Nano-antibiotcs for resistant bacteria.
