NANOMATERIALS
IN NATURAL SCIENCES
The research direction of nanomaterials in natural sciences combines basic and applied research, advanced technologies, including hi-tech analysis of not only environmental pollutants. Great emphasis is also placed on the synthesis and testing of various nanomaterials and their verification in practical applications, especially in the areas of water purification and remediation.
Department of Nanochemistry
The Department of Nanochemistry uses the tools of organic and inorganic chemistry for the preparation and chemical modification of nanomaterials, especially nanoparticles and nanofibers.

He left the wood to the woodcarvers. The biathlete opted for 3D printing and his own design
When your sports equipment fits you like a glove, you know it right away. This is undoubtedly true in biathlon. A rifle is not just a piece of equipment, but an extension of the body. And it was precisely this requirement that junior biathlete František Jelínek came to CXI TUL with: he wanted a custom-made…

We can detect pathogens in water within a few hours
Until now, water analysis results took several days, but with the new method based on qPCR analysis, we have results within five hours. Speed can be absolutely crucial in taking effective measures to protect health. The new method detects and identifies the DNA of pathogenic microorganisms, so there is no need to cultivate bacteria in…

Perfect glide, long tracks in nature. PFAS and the search for solutions
Groomed trails, the silence of the Jizera Mountains, cross-country skis gliding almost by themselves. But this perfect glide has a downside. The substances that have helped cross-country skiers achieve better riding characteristics for decades remain in nature practically forever. Per- and polyfluorinated substances, known by the abbreviation PFAS, have long been used in cross-country ski…
