Research & Projects
Research Areas
01
Nano-technology in Agriculture
We are committed to advancing agricultural science through cutting-edge research and innovation. Our current focus lies in the development of nanopesticides derived from plant-based sources. Recently, our laboratory has successfully developed an eco-friendly, nanoparticle-based biopesticide to combat agricultural diseases.
02
Disease control with Functional Food
Functional foods, enriched with bioactive and probiotic compounds play a crucial role in disease management and promoting overall health. Our primary objective is to continue advancing the development of functional foods and ensure their accessibility to consumers, fostering healthier lifestyles and effectively addressing public health challenges.
03
NanoMedicine
Nanomedicine utilizes nanoscale materials and technologies to transform healthcare through precise drug delivery, early disease detection, and advanced therapeutic approaches. By enabling targeted therapies, it minimizes side effects and enhances the accuracy of diagnostics. We continue to explore alternative and more effective therapeutic options, recognizing the immense potential of nanomedicine to revolutionize modern healthcare.
04
Biosensor / Smart and Active packaging
Nanoparticle-based biosensors, active packaging, and smart packaging represent leading-edge technologies that significantly enhance food safety, quality, and shelf life. Our research is currently focused on further advancing the development of nanoparticle-based biosensors and creating biodegradable, eco-friendly packaging materials derived from agricultural wastage, paving the way for sustainable active and smart packaging solutions.
