BRIEF CITATION
Her area of research includes:
i)
Discovery of new molecules bearing potential significance in medicine
and agriculture from indigenous plant materials and elucidation of their
structures by sophisticated spectroscopic methods as well as chemical
transformations. ii) Investigation of their biological and medicinal
potential such as anti-cancer, anti-AIDS, anti-tuberculosis,
anti-leishmaniasis, CNS stimulant and depressant, antihypertensive,
antibacterial, antifungal, analgesic, anti-oxidant and antiplatelet
aggregation activity. iii) Preparation of new synthetic analogues of
natural and synthetic molecules with the object of obtaining lead
bioactive molecules and study their structure-activity-relationship
(SAR). iv) Phytochemical analysis of major active principles in
plants with respect to climatic variations. v) Development and
formulation of biopesticides (bio-insecticides) for use in agriculture,
horticulture and household.
