Research Interests
My research interest involves the application of basic chemical principles in studying the fate of chemicals in the environment, development of predictive/interpretive models thereof and ecotoxicology of pollutants, all in the field of Environmental chemistry. In recent time, I am involved in study materials chemistry and conversion processing. Expertise has been accrued in micro-analytical detection methods.
