Research Fields

Since 1993, I work in the field of chemistry of natural products and their biological application especially as cytotoxic, molluscicides, schistosomacides, antimicrobials and antioxidants…..etc. I worked on different kind of extraction, separating and isolating systems including traditional extraction methods and Microwave & ultrasound assisted extraction methods, open column chromatography, thin layer chromatography, paper chromatography, analytical & preparative high performance liquid chromatography, GC/MS, LC-DAD, LC-UV, LC-RI and LC/MS. I have good experience in interpretation the spectra obtained from NMR & MS spectrometer to make structure elucidation for the isolating compounds.
