Current Research Activities

Chemical Sciences

1. anti-tumor and anti-oxidant screening of endophytic fungi and citrus fruit species 2. synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives and their reaction with different flavonoids and determination of their anti-fungal, anti-viral, enzyme inhibition and anti-oxidant and anti-cancer bio assays. The main focus is on their anticancer activity. 3. Synthesis of triazine derivatives and their anti-viral, anti-fungal, insecticidal activitieses 4. Synthesis of polymers of naturally occurring phenolics with imine basis 5. Green synthesis of Anthraquinone derivatives and their anticancer screening
