Università Roma Tre

The course aims to provide students with theoretical and experimental tools for the preparation, study, development and application of nanomaterials for biotechnologies, used in the field of environmental and health protection. Inorganic-based nanomaterials will be considered appropriately activated and functionalized with specific properties, such as diagnostic and sensory, transport of materials or substances, catalytic activity for production processes and transformation of resources, also with a view to sustainable development. The course also includes some laboratory experiences to provide practical manual skills and complementary skills. The laboratory will further refine the critical and analytical skills required for optimal design, preparation, chemical-physical characterization and application of functionalized inorganic nanomaterials in the field of biotechnology.
