Alba Cano-Vicent Source Confirmed

OverviewAI-generated summary

Alba Cano-Vicent's research focuses on developing and evaluating materials for infection prevention and tissue engineering. Her work has investigated the potential of various biocompatible films and fabrics to inactivate enveloped viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, and multidrug-resistant bacteria. This includes studies on alginate films crosslinked with calcium and zinc, as well as non-woven fabrics coated with cranberry extracts.

Further research extends to engineering alginate hydrogel films with enhanced antiviral and cell adhesion properties through the incorporation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-valerate) and graphene nanoplatelets. Cano-Vicent also examines the in vitro and in vivo toxicity of graphene nanoplatelets, along with their effects on cell proliferation and gene expression. Her scholarly contributions are reflected in an h-index of 12 and 872 total citations across 31 publications.
