The photophysical properties of 1,1'-diethyl-4,4'-carbocyanine chloride (kryptocyanine) have been measured in methanol solution and for the dye bound to human serum albumin, incorporated in neutral micelles and after incubation with leukemia cells. In all cases, it is found that formation

Applying optimal control to photoinduced trans-cis isomerization in condensed phase, the dynamics of bond-twisting motion of 1,1'-diethyl-4,4'-cyanine in methanol and propanol is revealed. The shape of the optimized pulse resulting from minimization of the photoisomer formation can be directly related

Graphene in Biotechnology

Graphene has emerged as the new wonder material. Being only one atom thick and composed of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal honeycomb lattice structure, the interest in this material has exploded exponentially since 2004 when it was first isolated and identified using a very simple method.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
