"The Laboratory of Bioactive Polymeric Materials for Biomedical and Environmental Applications (BIOlab) is the reference centre for biodegradable and biocompatible polymeric materials of the National Interuniversity Consortium for Materials Science and Technology (INSTM), and is made up of 5 research units coordinated by the unit at Dip. Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry of Pisa.
This unit has numerous lines of research on polymeric biomaterials from various sources, in the packaging, agro-industrial, marine, biomedical and pharmaceutical industries. In particular, research is conducted (synthesis, optimization, characterization and additive manufacturing methods) on biomaterials, including nanostructured, for controlled release therapies, regenerative medicine, tissue engineering.
