Research expertise and methodologies

Electrospinning, in vitro drug release with uDiss system, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), mechanical characterization (tensile testing), in vitro cell viability assays

Ongoing research projects

Currently, I am involved in two projects related to antimicrobial resistance. The first focuses on the development of a doxycycline-containing electrospun implant designed to provide localized antibiotic release for the treatment of periodontitis.

The second project involves electrospun nanoparticle-based wound dressings aimed at eliminating bacterial biofilms in chronic wounds.
