Research Activities

Objectives

Long term:

  Bioprospecting of renewable forest resources

Short term:

 Bioassay directed isolation and characterization of bioactive compounds of medicinal, therapeutic, phytoceutical, nutraceutical and biopesticidal importance and value addition.

  Development and commercialization of biopesticides; bioboosters and biocolourant through industrial collaboration.
