EXPERTISE INFORMATION

Research Group

Areas of Interest

1. Our Algal Biotechnology laboratory at MSCB University (Erstwhile North Orissa University) is actively engaged in isolation microalgae and cyanobacteria across Odisha coast, maintained in unialgal condition, in a Microalgal Repository Unit, optimizing there growth conditions, studying there protective mechanism (biochemical & molecular) to salinity, heavy metals, PH,UV irradiation etc. In addition to this, antimicrobial, antioxidant and anticancer study is also being carried out with an objective to isolate novel bioactive molecules for several commercial exploitation in nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical industries. 2. Further, our Research group is engaged in Collecting Lichens from different floristic zones of Odisha and in particular from Similipal National Park which is in close proximity to the University, and maintained in a Lichen Repository Unit, investigating their distribution pattern, phytochemical constituents, antimicrobial, antioxidant and anticancer activity. Our research group has also developed expertise to isolate the phycobiont component from Lichens found in different protected areas in Odisha and to isolate bioactive compounds for commercial applications.
