Summary: The project involves synthesis and characterization of
potentialy biologicaly active substances, their attachment as well as the
attachement of well known drugs on biocompatible polymers either by
chemical bond or by entrapment into microparticles, liposomes and other
novel delivery systems, and characterization of substances and
therapeutical systems by chemical, physico-chemical, microbiological and
biological methods.
Keywords: chemotherapeutics, azoles, hydroxamic acids, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, B6, neuroactive and neurotoxic substances, imunomodulators, prodrugs, polymer-drug conjugates, polymers, biocompatible polymers, therapeutic systems, microcapsules, microspheres, liposomes, in vitro and in vivo evaluations
Research goals: The purpose of investigation is chemical and
biopharmaceutical evaluation of newly synthetized compounds, novel drug
delivery systems of established drugs and potential therapeutic systems of
biologicaly active but not yet accepted substances.
