New Nanotechnological Methods

I would never have been able to conduct my researches and write the present PhD thesis without the guidance, help and support of all the people I share my days with. I would like to express my deepest and sincere gratitude to my advisor, Prof. Stefania Galdiero, for her guidance, care, motivation, enthusiasm and for providing me with an excellent scientific knowledge that allowed me to perform a working experience in an extraordinary atmosphere. I would like to thank my colleagues and friends, Dr. Annarita Falanga and Dr. Marco Cantisani, for the continuous support, guidance, encouragement, patience, great suggestions, immense knowledge; particularly, I will never forget their scientific and moral support that guided me during these years and helped me to develop my background.
