RESEARCH AREA

Green Chemistry – We develop a novel method for synthesis of biologically import heterocycles using green approach. The multicomponent synthesis includes ultrasonicator assisted one post-synthesis, microwave-assisted, and ionic liquid catalyzed or mediated and using the greener water-soluble catalyst.

Forensic Chemistry & Toxicology – We developed novel protocol and material for the detection of organochlorine and organophosphate pesticide residue in the given sample. To develop novel protocol for extraction of pesticide residue from various samples and biological matrix.

Material Science – We develop Au and Au@Ag based chemosensor for detection for pesticide residue and NDPS suspected sample and drugs. Biosynthesis of nanomaterial for the study of its application in forensic to the visualization of LFPs, photocatalytic degradation, and antimicrobial activity. Develop novel fluorescent for the detection of LFPs on various surfaces.
