Priscila Alessio holds a Bachelor's degree in Physics from the Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho - UNESP (2005) and completed her master's degree in Materials Science and Technology at UNESP in 2008. In 2012, she obtained her doctorate in co-tutelage with the Universidad de Valladolid (UVa), earning the titles of Doctor in Materials Science and Technology from UNESP and Doctora en Ciéncias Físicas from UVa. She conducted postdoctoral research from 2012 to 2017 at the Faculty of Sciences and Technology of Presidente Prudente (UNESP). Currently, she is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at the Faculty of Sciences and Technology of Presidente Prudente (UNESP).She leads the NanoAmbio research group (Laboratory of Nanostructured Materials for Environmental and Biological Analysis) and has coordinated research projects funded by FAPESP and CNPq. She is also involved in science outreach. Her expertise lies in the field of Materials Science, with a focus on nanostructured materials and their applications, including the fabrication of ultra-thin nanostructured films, biomimetic membrane models, characterization through vibrational and electronic spectroscopy, as well as surface-enhanced Raman scattering and sensor applications. Furthermore, she currently holds the position of CNPq Level 2 Research Fellow.ResearcherID - http://www.researcherid.com/rid/C-1716-2012 (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

This project aims to study and propose solutions to poor water quality, which has increasingly become a public health problem. The focus is given to emerging pollutants (EPs), whose availability in water has increased with the widespread use of chemicals, either by the general population or by industries, contributing to the pollution of water resources. These EPs are defined as synthetic…
Contaminated water is considered a major cause of diseases in human being and animals. Currently, so-called emerging contaminants were highlighted in studies of water analyzes for consumption worldwide. These contaminants are a class of compounds comprising pharmaceuticals, personal care products, industrial products, natural and synthetic hormones, illegal drugs, pesticides, nanomaterial…
This project proposes the development of electrochemical sensors for the detection and quantification of mercury in natural environments, using modified carbon paste electrodes (CPE). The focus is on the use of biodegradable materials and carbon nanomaterials, such as graphene oxide (GO) and carbon nanotubes, to create clean and sustainable technologies. This proposal arises in response t…
Microplastics have been frequently detected in various environments such as waterways, oceans, soil and the human body. In relation to the exposure of living beings, the presence of microplastics in breast milk as well as in meat and dairy products, attributed to ingestion by animals, has already been documented. While microplastics alone pose a worrying threat to the environment and huma…
Paraquat (PQ) and diquat (DQ) herbicides are widely used worldwide, despite being considered highly toxic to human health and the environment. It is worth noting that PQ is banned in all countries that make up the European Union and also in China, the largest world producer of this herbicide. In Brazil, it was banned on September 22, 2020. In this sense, the development of methods and met…
This project aims to search for a solution to the growing water pollution caused by emerging contaminants, mainly dyes, seeking an efficient removal method. Dyes are toxic to the environment and human health and are difficult to degrade. The use of filters, specifically membrane technology, has shown promising results in removing polluting dyes from water. Nanofiltration and Reverse Osmos…
This work aims the study of the interaction between the phospholipids DPPC (1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine), and DOPC (1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) with the emerging pollutant Bisphenol- A (2,2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) propane) using biological membrane models. The DPPC and DOPC phospholipids have the same hydrophilic head; however the DOPC has two unsaturation…
This work aims the study of the interaction between the phospholipids DPPC (1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine), DPPE (1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine) and DPPS -dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylserine) with the emerging pollutant amoxicillin using biological membrane models. The target emergent pollutant, amoxicillin, is an antibiotic drug widely consum…

Monitoring water quality is an essential tool in preventing diseases for humans. Currently, the problem of water quality is global and mainly due to population growth, which is expected to exceed 9 billion by 2050. This population growth associated with poor effluent management and limited disposal strategies has consequently generated an increase in different types of chemicals found in …
