Alba Cano-Vicent Data-verified

OverviewAI-generated summary

Alba Cano-Vicent's research focuses on developing and evaluating biocompatible materials for infection prevention and tissue engineering. Recent work includes the fabrication of alginate hydrogel films and non-woven fabrics functionalized with various agents to inactivate enveloped viruses, such as SARS-CoV-2, and multidrug-resistant bacteria. Investigations have explored the use of calcium alginate, zinc crosslinking, cranberry extracts, and graphene nanoplatelets to enhance antiviral, antibacterial, and anticancer activities. Additionally, research has examined the potential of fused deposition modeling for scaffold fabrication in the context of microbial resistance and tissue engineering applications. Cano-Vicent also studies the in vivo and in vitro toxicity of materials like graphene nanoplatelets, assessing their effects on cell proliferation and gene expression. Collaborations include Miguel Martí, Ángel Serrano-Aroca, and Marcelo Assis, with whom Cano-Vicent has co-authored multiple publications.
