In March, Bren, Julia and Martin travelled to Limerick to visit our collaborators in Micheál Scanlon’s research group at the Bernal Institute at the University of Limerick. Martin and Julia stayed for a few days to learn more about AC voltammetry in liquid|liquid systems. Many thanks to Nicolas for his […]

Angelika joined the team as a new postdoc coming from our colleagues at the University of Limerick in Ireland. Angelika did her undergraduate and her PhD at Ulm University in Germany at the Institute of Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry under the supervision of Prof. Christine Kranz. Her work was focused […]
Since not much has been happening here lately, it is an excellent time to announce that the group has a new Instagram account. We are @ctihs_ichf, and as of now, there are two posts up 🙂
From the start of the new year the group has more or less halved in size. This is not because of some unprecedented calamity, but genuinely good news. Our long time group-member Emilia has become PI of her own research group within our institute. The new group, Sensor Arrays, will […]
Recently another paper was published in collaboration with our UpTurn partners from Gdańsk University of Technology. Meen was investigating novel carbon materials from the Bogdanowicz group to be used for detection of serotonin. We have previously tested several different types of carbon materials for neurotransmitter detection,,, and these particles from […]
In this invited paper we studied the difference that the shape of the microcavity has in in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometers has on their sensitivity. This work is related to previous publications in collaboration between our group and Prof. Śmietana at Warsaw University of Technology., In the previous publications we used a […]
Together with our partners in the UPTURN project we wrote a short review article about the use of combining electrochemical and optical methods in microfluidic systems. The goal of UPTURN is to create a suitable microfluidic platform for multiparametric measurements. This was a good opportunity to summarise what is available […]
We are very happy to see that our colleague Veronika got a grant from NCBR to continue her studies of manganese dioxide as a catalyst for hydrogen peroxidase detection. The project is an extension of the the UpTurn project under the Support for Ukrainian researchers under Bilateral Fund of ‘Applied […]
Sometimes publishing doesn’t go according to plan…. Our newly published article in J. Electroanal. Chem. was supposed to have been published before the follow-up in ChemElectroChem. We thought it made sense to first study the shorter amyloid and then follow with a study of the longer one. Some review delays […]
Over the last year, Magda has been working with bachelor student Natalia to investigate the redox behaviour of different β-amyloids. In her recently published paper she demonstrates a significant difference in the redox behaviour of copper complexes with peptides associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). AD is a neurodegenerative disorder and […]
