In this follow-up to our previous paper on MnO2 as a catalyst for H2O2 decomposition Veronika investigated the effect of doping the MnO2-film with Co2+-ions. The doping, which is done by depositing the manganese oxide electrochemically from a solution also containing a cobalt salt, significantly increases the catalytic performance of […]

Within her SONATINA grant, Magda is conducting research on a new potential therapeutic molecule: TDMQ20. In our previous posts, we described her electrochemical studies, which helped better understand the redox properties of TDMQ20 itself and its complexes with copper ions (Cu(II)). The next stage of the project focused on investigating the extent […]
A new study on boranil photocatalysts just dropped! Collaboration is very important for our research group. For this reason, Magda once again supported the team of Prof. Tomasz Kliś from Warsaw University of Technology by carrying out voltammetric studies as part of their research on halogenated boranil complexes. In this […]
A little late update, but at the end of last year a press note was published by our Institute highlighting Magda’s work on the electrochemical properties of TDMQ20, a molecule that has been proposed as a potential drug for treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. The press note concerns the two papers […]
A paper was just published in ACS Materials Letters by our former PhD student, Marcin S. Filipiak, with Martin as one of the co-authors. The paper describes a conductive hydrogel based on a combination of GelMA, PEDOT:PSS, and tetramethacrylated PEDOT:TOS. This material is a conductive 3D scaffold that can be […]
As a nice New Year’s gift, our article about Amyloid-β adsorbed at the ITIES was published in ACS Electrochemistry. In this paper, we investigate the behaviour of two different peptides, Aβ(1-16) and Aβ(4-16), at the liquid|liquid interface. There are many publication describing the adsorption of proteins at the ITIES (e.g. […]
The follow-up to Julia’s previous publication on assisted ion transfer at the three-phase junction was a long time coming. As in the previous paper, we used a squaramide-based ionophore to help transferring hydrophilic ions across the interface between to immiscible liquids, but here, the ionophore was functionalised with a ferrocene […]
The story of spectroelectrochemistry continues… It took a year, but here it is – the second paper by Magda in collaboration with Professor Álvaro Colina’s research group! The sheer amount of data and the depth of analysis required a lot of time and effort, but it was absolutely worth it. […]
A second paper involving our group was just accepted in the Festschrift of the Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry dedicated to the 60th birthday of Prof. Frank Marken from the University of Bath. This is an article by our collaborators in the Surface Nanoengineering Group, where Kasia was leading the work of […]
We are happy that we just published a new paper in a special issue of the Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry dedicated to the 60th birthday of Prof. Frank Marken from the University of Bath. The special issue is edited by Frank’s former supervisor, the legendary Prof. Richard G. Compton, […]
