Physicochemistry of Interfacial Phenomena Group

We conduct research in two thematic groups

I. P. Dynarowicz-Łątka, M. Broniatowski, K. Hąc-Wydro, M. Flasiński, A. Więcek

  • Surface phenomena at the liquid/gas, liquid/liquid, solid/liquid and solid/gas interfaces

  • Synthesis and characterization of film-forming compounds

  • Molecular interactions in mixed Langmuir monolayers

  • Phase transitions in monolayers at the air/water interface

Current research projects

  • Studies  on the mechanism of action of a new generation of synthetic phospholipds of antitumor activity

  • Two-dimensional miscibility between hydrocarbon and perfluorohydrocarbon chains

  • The role of phospholipids in the mechanism of action of polyene antibiotics

  • Construction of electrochemical sensors for determination of pesticides in water solutions

II. B. Krajewska

  • Polymer membranes: structure and properties

  • Enzyme immobilization

Current research projects

  • Immobilization of urease on gel chitosan membranes. Kinetic properties of the immobilized urease vs. native urease

  • Structure and transport properties of gel chitosan membranes

  • Gel chitosan membranes as templates for hydroxyapatite growth
