First Faculty of Medicine, Charles University / BIOCEV

General description

 

The laboratory of Medicinal Chemistry of Charles University is located in BIOCEV center. The laboratory focuses on the molecular design, synthesis, separation, characterization and bioanalytical testing of medicinally active organic compounds and their formulations. In terms of medical applications, we focus on theranostics, cellular testing, enzymatic, epigenetic and pharmaceuticals. The molecular design is based on organic compounds based on structural motifs such as hydrazones, methine salts, coumarins, curcumins or Tröger bases. The medicinal potential of the prepared molecules is tested independently or in collaboration with excellent colleagues from the Czech Republic and abroad.
