Research group

Biomaterials

Biomaterials combine advanced material properties with biocompatibility. The research group is therefore interested in preparing smart materials that can respond to external stimuli, such as electric fields, by combining synthetic polymers, biopolymers and other materials such as metals or ceramics. The prepared materials are then tested by the lab for biocompatibility by studying the interaction with eukaryotic and prokaryotic model systems. The instrumentation allows testing of a wide range of biological properties of materials, from basic parameters such as cytotoxicity through interaction at biological interfaces to the growth of scaffolds in bioreactors. Tumour or immortalized lines or stem cells are used as model systems. In addition to biomaterials, the group also tests cosmetics, e.g. for photo-toxicity or transdermal absorption.

Head of the group: prof. Ing. Petr Humpolíček, Ph.D.
