Hydration Properties and Supramolecular Architecture of Small Peptides and Nanostructures

We xamine hydration properties and solvation of model peptides, along with their folding, aggregation and self-assembly under various conditions with UV Resonant Raman to offer a sensitive label-free approach to monitor specific chemical moieties inside the system in situ and in operando conditions.
Delve into the structural dynamics of peptides with UV Resonant Raman, advancing in the design of new peptides with therapeutic potential and understanding protein misfolding diseases is also possible thanks to the richness of information of the UVRR spectra.
The DUV portable Raman instrument (Photon Systems) offers quick and easy collection of high signal-to-noise Raman spectra, completely free from interfering fluorescence background. Different methods for sampling (macro and micro) and possibility to explore wide temperature ranges are also feasible.
