Anton Zalygin

Anton Vladlenovich is developing methods and instruments for biomedical research.
One of the directions is based on the use of a combination of atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Raman spectroscopy (Raman spectroscopy) and giant Raman scattering (TERS, SERS) to study the interaction of metal and semiconductor nanoparticles with biological, chemical and medical objects. In particular, studies are being conducted on the influence of malignant tumors and other life-threatening factors, both in vitro and in vivo.
In addition, approaches are used in the framework of which, for a deeper study of the ultrastructure, physical and chemical properties of nanomaterials and their complexes, complementary methods are used, for example, scanning probe spectroscopy and optical microspectroscopy for multiparametric analysis. This approach is used, for example, for complex characterization of the association of molecules of various Function-spacer-lipid constructs under physiological conditions.
To experimentally determine the internal structure of nanoparticles, the small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) method is used, while more detailed data on the internal structure and surface properties of nanoparticles and their functional parts in dynamics are obtained using the molecular dynamics (MD) method.
