Olamide Akinbode holds a Bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry from Osun State University, Nigeria, and a Master’s degree in Applied Biotechnology from Warsaw University of Technology, Poland. She is currently a doctoral researcher in the Faculty of Chemistry within the discipline of Biotechnology at Warsaw University of Technology.
Her PhD research focuses on the development of analytical methods for characterizing and testing the properties of nanomaterials. Her work addresses the challenges associated with nanoparticle behavior in complex environmental and biological systems, particularly the formation of eco- and biocorona layers that alter nanoparticle physicochemical properties.
Her research involves the development and optimization of capillary electrophoresis (CE) methods for nanoparticle and corona–nanoparticle separation, coupled with advanced detection techniques including UV–Vis spectroscopy, laser-induced fluorescence, and ICP-MS. In parallel, she optimizes dynamic light scattering (DLS) methods to evaluate hydrodynamic diameter and zeta potential, with particular attention to matrix effects and measurement reliability. Her work contributes to improving analytical reliability, sensitivity, and selectivity in nanomaterial characterization, with implications for environmental safety, biotechnology, and sustainable nanomaterial applications.
