RAJA KANNAN

About

Experienced researcher in the field of plant natural products, its phytochemistry and pharmacology. The core area is bioassay-directed discovery, purification and chemical characterization of plant based natural products with anticancer, antioxidant, antidiabetic, antibacterial and other activities. Other elements of my research include structure and structure activity relationships of natural products with potential to be developed as alternative medicines drugs and process development for the production of bioactive extracts/compounds for commercialization. Skilled in phytochemical drug discovery and formulation, process optimization, structural elucidation of plant metabolites, mammalian cell culture techniques, flow cytometry, biochemical techniques including HPLC, GCMS, LCMS.
