Offer Description
Development and characterization of plasma processed liquids and hydrogels for the treatment of colon rectal cancer
(CRC)
The PREmedCAP project aims to create pharmacological products in the form of liquids or hydrogels, using plasma
technology, as an innovative alternative to chemotherapy against colorectal cancer (CRC). The products thus created
will be conceived as drug delivery systems of RONS species to be used in both in vitro and in vivo models. In this
research area, the fellow will participate in the study, synthesis and in vitro application of the pharmacological products
described above. Particular attention will be paid to the synthesis and chemical-physical characterization of the devices
through: development of processes via plasma and synthesis of hydrogels, UV-Vis and fluorescence spectrophotometry
for the quantification of RONS species, LC-MS for the identification of organic molecules contained in liquids and
hydrogels and their reaction products, study of the rheological properties of hydrogels, study of the release kinetics of
RONS.
