Bio

The focus of my research is to develop novel biosensors for detection of pesticide residues, mycotoxins, pathogenic bacteria, heavy metals, endocrine disruptors in drinking water, milk & milk powder, grapes, beverage, sea food (fish, prawn, mussle, etc). Develop rapid yet sensitive and low cost biochip device technology for high throughput analysis. Currently we have patented about 5 such technologies and seeking collaboration with Industry, startups to create products meeting regulatory stan
