Participation at EPSC 2024 in Prag
Mai 2024
Vanessa Erckes, Dr. Christian Steuer and Alessandro Streuli participated at this years EPSC 2024 in Prague. Vanessa presented her progress on the detection of deamidation of peptides and Alessandro his work on the development of a platform for the immunization with peptides with defined secondary structure. Alessandro further received the poster prize in the category of "Novel Contribution to Peptide Application". Congratulation to Vanessa and Alessandro to their contribution to the scientific conference!
Publication of new article: Accuracy of Spinal Anesthesia Drug Concentrations in Mixtures Prepared by Anesthetists
July 2022
We are pleased to announce our latest publication of our group by Dr. Christian Steuer in the journal of patient safety. The work is concerned with medication errors in the area of spinal anaesthesia mixtures of local anaesthetics and the dosing accuracy of drug mixtures used. Concentrations of authentic samples were analysed via HPLC and their interindividual and intraindividual variations were assessed. Based on the results, conclusions were drawn about the impact on patient health. The full text can be found at external page doi: 10.1097/PTS.0000000000001061.
New member of the group
June 2022
We welcome Alessandro Streuli to our group! Alessandro will join as new PhD student and will work at the synthesis for new peptidomimetics for infectious diseases in collaboration with the group of Prof. Dr. Klaus Eyer. We wish Alessandro all the best for the new stage of live.
Publication of new article: Easy and convenient millimole-scale synthesis of new, potential biomarkers for gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) intake: Feasible for analytical laboratories
April 2022
We are glad to present the newest paper of our group by our group leader Christian Steuer together with Justine Raeber and a former master student of our lab. In the publication we present simple procedures for the rapid synthesis and purification of amino acid GHB conjugates as well as their fatty acid esters. The introduced syntheses are feasible to be performed in clinical as well as forensic laboratories and will hopefully help to further improve the detection of GHB as a drug of abuse. If you want to read more about GHB or adopt the presented syntheses routes in your laboratory the full publication can be found at external page https://doi.org/10.1002/dta.3273 .
Publication of new Review: A story of peptides, lipophilicity and chromatography – back and forth in time
January 2022
We are very happy to announce the newest publication of our group by Vanessa Erckes and Christian Steuer in the journal of RSC medicinal chemistry. The review gives an overview of the role of chromatography in the peptide drug discovery process to characterize important physicochemical paramters such as lipophilicity. If you are interest in the article and want to have further information about the state of the art in peptide analysis the full version can be found at external page https://doi.org/10.1039/D2MD00027J.
