DNA aptamers – novel receptors in biosensors

Prof. Tibor Hianik

Comenius University Bratislava

venerdì 9 dicembre 2011 ore 12:00

Aula U. M. Grassano

Facoltà di Scienze Matematiche, Fisiche e Naturali

Dipartimento di Fisica

Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata”

Abstract:
The talk will deal with the following topics:

Structure and properties of DNA aptamers. Aptamer engneering, preparation of
nanostructured surfaces and aptamer immobilization. Electrochemical and
acoustical methods of aptamer-ligand detection. Examples of biosensors for
detection thrombin, prions, and ochratoxin.

Biographical:

Professor Tibor Hianik is head of the Laboratory of Biophysics of Comenius
University Bratislava.

He is chair of the Master and PhD program in Biophysics at CUB. Prof. T.
Hianik supervised 16 PhD students and more than 30 diploma works.

A substantial area of his research is focussed on the development of
biosensors based on DNA aptamers and antibodies.

He has authored 135 papers in International Journals, two monographs, six
chapters in books and serves as associate editor of the International
Journal Bioelectrochemistry (Elsevier) and editor of the International
Journal of General Physiology and Biophysics (SAS). He also served as a
guest editor of special issue of Electroanalysis (Wiley) focused on
electrochemical aptasensors.

He is member of the Council of Bioelectrochemical Society, member of
commission C6 on Biological Physics of IUPAP and president of the Slovak
Biophysical Society.
