We present the synthesis of a novel conducting polymer (CP) incorporating both pyrrole and thiophene units in its monomer, which is also substituted with an initiator for grafting of sidechains by atom-transfer radical polymerisation (ATRP). The prec... Read More about A new precursor for conducting polymer-based brush interfaces with electroactivity in aqueous solution.

DNA adduct formation of mitomycin C. A test case for DFT calculations on model systems (2012)
Journal Article

Mitomycin C is a DNA alkylating agent activated by bioreduction. It has been in clinical use against a range of solid tumours since the 1960s. Its DNA adduct formation mechanism has been extensively studied and it therefore presents an excellent test... Read More about DNA adduct formation of mitomycin C.
