Agnese Brangule received her PhD in Chemistry Technology in 2017. Her main competencies are different synthesis methods of different calcium phosphates and application of FTIR techniques (PAS, DRIFT, ATR), which can provide both qualitative and quantitative information about a sample and, combined with statistical, provide a convenient graphical and visual representation of the data.
Agnese Brangule joined the BBCE project as a Group 4 (Kinetics and stability of drug delivery systems) leader in January 2021. She conducts her research in the field of:
- biomaterials, studying the properties of amorphous calcium phosphate, paying particular attention to the possibilities of using spectroscopic methods and statistical methods in forecasting and processing results;
- evaluation drug delivery systems based on calcium phosphates;
- fingerprintig profiles of medicinal herbs.
Field of expertise: research services in HPLC UV, FTIR ATR
