Biomolecular Analysis
Welcome to the Biomolecular Analysis Group
The Biomolecular Analysis group is focused on the development of novel analytical methodologies for the discovery and trace analysis of biologically active compounds. Our research strategy is dedicated to meet key analytical challenges in the area of pharmaceutical and biomedical research and associated fields.
We develop analytical methodologies that strongly emphasize automation and integration of sample pretreatment, separation and detection. We pay attention to the development of sophisticated methods for the analysis of both small organic molecules (drugs, metabolites, catalysts, toxic compounds) and biomacromolecules (therapeutic proteins, protein adducts).
Anders Rudebeck wins Taeke Bultsma awardAnders Rudebeck, Drug Discovery & Safety MSc student in the Division of BioMolecular Analysis, received the Taeke Bultsma award for his MSc Thesis on "High-resolution at-line screening of histamine receptor H4 ligands and their metabolites” at the LACDR autumn conference on 11 November 2011.
