My field of interest is to enhance scientific knowledge and application value of various natural products. I have previously worked with flavonoids, including anthocyanins from terrestrial plants. In future work I will have focus on natural products from the marine environment.
During research in natural product chemistry we are using different analytical techniques as: HPLC (analytical and preparative), UV/Vis spectroscopy, LC-MS, TLC, NMR and different types of column chromatography.
