My research is currently on pH-responsive nanovalves based on pseudorotaxanes. These nanovalves could be modified for different operation conditions. I’m also trying to combine this system with other nanomachines such as “snap-tops” or nanoimpellers to build a pH/enzyme or pH/light dual-control system. All these systems are designed for bio-applications such as cancer cell targeting and drug delivery.
