The Nanobiotechnology Laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities that enable interdisciplinary research with a special emphasis on the characterisation of nanomaterials, nanomedicines, advanced materials and micro(nano)plastics.
The Nanobiotechnology laboratory features state-of-the-art equipped facilities designed to foster interdisciplinary studies. A special emphasis lies on characterisation of nanomaterials, micro(nano)plastics, nanomedicines, advanced materials and their interactions with biological systems, as well as on the detection, identification and characterisation of nanomaterials in food and consumer products.
The JRC Nanobiotechnology Laboratory team is a multidisciplinary team of scientists, including chemists, physicists, biologists,,and materials scientists with extensive experience in the fields of physical-chemical characterisation of materials and nanobiosciences.
TOPIC 1
