Teaching

Conducts lectures for students of master's studies of IBTN RUDN:

  • “Physico-chemical methods of analysis”,
  • “Development and registration of medicines”.

The author of the following course-books and study guides:

  • Guide to instrumental methods of research in the development and examination of quality of medicines. Edited by S. N. Bykovsky, I. A. Vasilenko Moscow: Publishing house “Pero”. 2014.,
    http://lib.tvgmu.ru/OpacUnicode/index.php?url=/notices/index/IdNotice:55261/Source:default
    The study guide is devoted to the practice of modern methods of analysis of the quality of drugs. The manual can be useful for students, postgraduate students and researchers specializing in the development and production of drugs.
  • Comments to the European Union guidelines on good manufacturing practice medicinal products for human use and use in veterinary medicine. Study guide. /S. N. Bykovsky, I. A. Vasilenko, S. V. Maximov. Moscow: publishing house “Pero”, 2014, 488 p. ISBN: 978-5-919407-73-7
    https://www.libex.me/detail/book888798.html
    The study guide is devoted to the consideration of good practice in the production of GMP drugs, the history of the issue, the relationship of GMP with other standards.

Science

  • Methods for the synthesis of natural and modified phospholipids were developed.
  • Mechanisms of polymorphic transformations of model and biological membranes were studied.
  • Mechanisms of translocation of nucleic acids through the cell wall were studied.
  • Methods of analysis of medicines in the lung contents of natural isotopes to determine the place of production of medicines were developed.
  • Methods for the synthesis of the antibiotic Rifabutin were developed.
  • Mechanisms of inhibition of formation of biofilms in natural polymers were studied.
  • Methods for visualizing the interaction of nanoparticles with cells were developed.
  • Methods of determining the anaerobic microorganisms in the study of medicines by the index “microbiological purity” were developed.

Scientific interests

  • Study of the interaction of nanoparticles of different nature with cell cultures.
  • Development and registration of medicines.
  • Development of scientific evidence on the interchangeability of medicines.
The liposomal form of silibinin was obtained, and its antihepatotoxic activity in mice was studied using a model of acute toxic hepatitis caused by injection of carbon tetrachloride or paracetamol. It was shown that the use of the drug in therapy or prevention regimens leads to normalization of levels of transaminases and total protein in the blood of experimental animals. The results of the study showed that liposomal silibinin when administered intravenously shows a more pronounced hepatoprotective effect compared to intragastric administration of free silibinin. Thus, the effectiveness of the therapeutic action of silibinin can be significantly increased by using its liposomal form. Liposomal drug, in contrast to native silibinin, can be injected directly into the blood that significantly increases its bioavailability.
