Our group has participated in the course "Novel tendencies and challenges for the chemical processes in the 21th century", organized by the the National Distance Education University (UNED), which was held from 22 to 24 April 2015. Francisco Plou pronounced a conference on "Biocatalysis". Nearly sixty students (undergraduate and master) attended the Symposium. The programme of the course can be downloaded here.

Introduction Course to HPLC

Our group has coordinated an introduction course to analytical and semipreparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), under the auspices of the Madrid's Chemists Association. It took place on May 11-14 2015. More information

Microscale procedure for enzyme immobilization assays

We have published a simple and inexpensive method, based on the use of micro-centrifuge filter tubes, for establishing the best enzyme immobilization conditions. The methodology is also useful to assess the operational stability of biocatalysts.
