Using combinations of molecules that form deep eutectic systems, Ana Rita Duarte, leader of the des.solve lab at LAQV - FCT NOVA, was able to ally anticancer and anti-inflammatory properties of natural occurring molecules, such as limonene, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory substances, such as ibuprofen, creating a new formulation that unveils a potential chemotherapeutical deep eutectic solvent (DES) for cancer treatment.
Andrew Livingston, Professor de Engenharia Química no Imperial College London, estará na FCT NOVA no dia 22 de Outubro às 12h00 no Auditório da Biblioteca, com o seminário “Molecular Separations in Organic Solvents, and the Quest for Perfect Polymers”.
Andrew Livingston será homenageado com a Cerimónia de Doutoramento Honoris Causa a ter lugar no Auditório da Reitoria da NOVA, no dia 21 de Outubro pelas 17h00.
