Development of molecular research tools in biochemistry and pharmacology
Task:
R&D project to develop molecular research tools in biochemistry and pharmacology.
Solution:
The previous experience in the development of quinolone-based fluorescent dyes was taken as a basis.
The scientific group synthesized the benzoanalogy of the well-known PQS (Pseudomonas quinolone signal), which is a tool for communication of microorganisms Pseudomonas.

The resulting molecule has unique fluorescent properties, is sensitive to the proton-donor nature of the environment and is a convenient tool for studying the composition of cell membranes.
Both pathogenic viruses and medications are entering the cell through the membares. Therefore, it is so important to understand their composition and mechanism of work.
