Organisation profile
NanoMyP ® is a spin off of the University of Granada and was founded in June 2011, to commercialize the
research results of the FQM-297 Research Group in nanotechnology and optical sensors.
nanoMyP ® is a technology-based company which is specialist in the design and synthesis of nano and
microparticles, polymeric and hybrid linear polymers and copolymers and smart materials with
physicochemical properties tailored to customer needs (materials "on demand" ).
Besides these products, nanoMyP ® has its own line of R&D activities. The heart of this line is based on
the design and synthesis of new highly innovative smart materials with important applications in
biotechnology and the materials industry. Smart materials have the ability to change its color, shape, and
electronic properties in response to environmental changes or alterations (light, sound, temperature,
voltage). Thus, the materials of "tomorrow" that NanoMyP ® is designing "today" are:
o
o
o
Biocatalytic textiles (a new generation of smart textiles which can be used for immobilizing
biomolecules) to be used on the synthesis of pharmaceutical drugs and in the development
of immunoassay kits.
Biocompatible smart textiles for photodynamic therapies (dermatological and aesthetic
treatments such as psoriasis, melanoma, warts, wrinkles, facial peels, etc.).
Wireless robot for diagnosis of ocular diseases (diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma).
Main capacities in nanotechnology/nanoscience
Main capacities in nanotechnology/nanoscience are reflected in the families of products that the company
sells:
Synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). They are nanostructured polymers which have
been synthesized to selectively interact with a family of molecules or a single molecule.
Design and synthesis of spherical nano and micro polymeric particles. The technology developed
by nanoMyP ® allows, by chemical synthesis, obtaining spherical polymeric nano-and
microparticles, perfectly monodisperse and with a wide range of functional groups on the surface.
Design and synthesis of hybrid superparamagnetic nano and microparticles. The technology
developed by nanoMyP ® allows the synthesis of core-shell particles, in which the core is
composed of magnetite, and the shell is made of a polymer matrix with different chemical
functionalisations.
