Lecture summary

Frameworks may be made up of relatively strongly bound entities such as those that make up metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or may be more loosely bound such as host-guest systems where the host molecules crystallise as independent entities but leave spaces which can accommodate guest molecules. Flexibility can be achieved through the use of non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen- or halogen-bonding. These ‘soft’ interactions allow for reversible processes, allowing the preparation of dynamic materials which respond to their chemical or physical environment. Among the more interesting examples of dynamic processes in frameworks are those which result in thermochromic and/or mechanochromic effects. Materials of this type are particularly of interest if they are able to revert to their original state on application of another external perturbation signal. Rational design of such systems remains a challenge however and is thus an exciting area for application of crystal engineering principles.

In this presentation, examples from recent work in our laboratory will be presented, including MOFs and 3D hydrogen bonded frameworks constructed from the same flexible multitopic ligands.

Proteini i Nobelova nagrada za kemiju 2024.

Pitanje kako slijed aminokiselina u proteinu kodira informaciju o tome koju točno određenu trodimenzionalnu strukturu protein treba zauzeti da bi bio funkcionalan smatra se jednim od najvećih izazova u biokemiji i više od 50 godina to je pitanje bilo bez odgovora. Ovogodišnja Nobelova nagrada za kemiju dodijeljena je trojici znanstvenika koji su u napretku strojnog učenja i umjetne inteligencije pronašli učinkovit alat za dešifriranje te veze: Davidu Bakeru za njegov rad na računalnom dizajnu proteina, te Demisu Hassabisu i Johnu Jumperu za njihov rad na predikciji njihove strukture.

Dr. sc. Marina Tranfić Bakić docentica je na Zavodu za biokemiju Kemijsko-tehnološkog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Splitu gdje predaje Biokemiju i Fizikalnu biokemiju, a u svom se znanstvenom radu bavi istraživanjem veze između molekulske strukture i svojstava i ponašanja kompleksnih sustava s ciljem dizajna i priprave novih antitumorskih formulacija. U ovom će znanstveno-popularnom predavanju objasniti što su proteini i zašto je važna njihova struktura, predstaviti dobitnike ovogodišnje Nobelove nagrade za kemiju i njihov put studentskih dana do nevjerojatnih otkrića, te se naposlijetku dotaknuti nekih od mogućnosti primjene ovih novih spoznaja u budućnosti poput primjena u medicine, za dizajn i pripremu novih nanomaterijala, u zelenoj kemiji itd.

Lectures summary

Prvo predavanje
Synthesis and modification of pyrazole derivatives as potential bioactive molecules
Sinteza i modifikacija derivata pirazola kao potencijalnih bioaktivnih molekula

Pyrazole compounds are interesting due to their versatility in both biological activity and organic synthesis. There are a number of drugs that contain a pyrazole fragment, such as Rimonabant, Celecoxib or Penthiopyrad. Pyrazole compounds exhibit pharmacological activity in the treatment of malaria, cancer, and various viral or bacterial diseases. Although pyrazole compounds are one of the most studied groups, they remain relevant. In this lecture, will be present new pyrazole systems obtained by applying atom-economical and straightforward synthesis and functionalization methodologies, which could find reliable practical application in various fields of chemistry.

Lecture summary

Detection and Identification of Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Complex Environmental Samples

The degradation of bulk plastics in the environment leads to the release of microplastics that can contaminate water supplies, agricultural fields, and foods we consume. Weathering of a single microplastic particle can yield up to billions of nanoplastics and nanoplastic pollution is expected to be ubiquitous in the environment. Nanoplastics are potentially more hazardous than microplastics because they can cross biological membranes; yet, there is little data on the occurrence, fate and impacts of nanoplastics. A key challenge in understanding the environmental burden of nanoplastics is the detection of such small, carbon-based particles in complex natural matrices such as soils and whole organisms. We have been working on the development of new plastic labeling and imaging techniques for detection of nanoplastics and microplastics in environmental samples. The first approach relies on stimulated emission depletion microscopy (STED) to detect labeled nanoplastics in whole organisms or other complex samples. More recent developments circumvent the need to label the plastic particles by implementing a tissue clearing technique or histology technique to image the particles while preserving the structure of the whole organism. This presentation will describe the new methodologies and provide examples of microplastic and nanoplastic detection and localization in representative aquatic and terrestrial organisms.

Lecture summary

The gut microbiome is increasingly recognised as a key player in host health and disease, yet its role in psychiatric and inflammatory conditions remains underexplored. In this talk, I will present recent findings on the microbial signatures and potential mechanisms linking the gut microbiota to anorexia nervosa and inflammatory bowel disease. Drawing on metagenomic and animal studies, I will explore how members of the microbiome may influence disease progression in Anorexia Nervosa. These insights pave the way for novel microbiome-informed interventions and deepen our understanding of host–microbe interactions in complex disorders.

Opis: Iako je ionska kromatografija već duži niz godina prihvaćena kao standardna analitička tehnika (AOAC, ASTM, ISO, farmakopeja), njena popularnost i dalje raste. Razlog je tome što razvoj ionske kromatografije prati ostale tehnike tekućinske kromatografije, poput trenda umanjivanja sustava s ciljem poboljšanja kromatografske učinkovitosti te ekonomske i ekološke prihvatljivosti. Istodobno je korištenje višestruke detekcije odavno postalo nezaobilazni standard. Nadalje nekadašnju su striktnu podjelu kromatografije s obzirom na dominirajući mehanizam separacije zamijenili moderni koncepti dvodimenzijske kromatografije, poput isijecanja ili pak potpunog sprezanja. S obzirom na kompleksnost problematike danas je još važnije dobro razumjeti teoriju ionske kromatografije, usvojiti osnovna načela ionske kromatografske separacije te raspolagati znanjima o specifičnosti različitih detekcijskih metoda. Na taj je način moguće lakše i brže razvijati metode određivanja novih analita primjenom optimizacijskih postupaka. Sve navedeno dotiče ovaj sveučilišni udžbenik. Ionska je kromatografija kao gradivo uključena u većoj ili manjoj mjeri u brojne kolegije koji se održavaju na Sveučilištu u Zagrebu. Nažalost, sveobuhvatne literature pisane hrvatskim jezikom do sada nije bilo. Stoga je nakana autora da ovo izdanje olakša praćenje nastavnih sadržaja vezanih uz ionsku kromatografiju, a po potrebi pruži i dublju teorijsku podlogu.
