Yakov Woldman

Dr. Yakov Woldman is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Valdosta State University. He teaches freshman chemistry I and II (with labs), honors chemistry (with labs), and biochemistry I and II (with labs). His research focuses on detecting reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in biological systems, particularly through chemiluminescence and quantitative analysis of cellular reactive species generation.

Research Interests:

• Detection of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species in biological systems
• Quantitative assessment of reactive species generation by cells
• Development of chemiluminescence-based detection methods
• Design of pH-sensitive nanoprobes for biomedical applications

Publications highlight his work in nitric oxide detection, chemiluminescence techniques, and nanoparticle-based analytical tools.
