Pharmacognosy
The word "Pharmacognosy"
derived from two Greek words, "pharmakon" (drug), and
"gnosis" (knowledge). Pharmacognosy today ... More
Bioassays
In vitro molecular
& cellular effects of therapeutic agents: enzymatic,
fluorometric,
colourimetric, ELISA, radiometric, kinetic and enzyme-based assays; robust primary screening and secondary
functional assays; etc. Select specific bioassay area from
the menu on the left.
Chromatography
Though
hundreds of compounds are known to occur in a crude
natural products (e.g. herbal) preparations,
very small number of
structurally distinct compounds are often responsible
for the desired pharmacological effect. Modernising the
use of such medical preparations and/or addressing the
'quality', 'safety' and 'efficacy' issues of crude
natural products calls for the isolation/separation
of
active principles by using various chromatographic
techniques.... HPLC, TLC…..

Spectroscopy
Characterisation of small molecular weight compounds
from synthetic or natural sources require the
utilization of a range of spectroscopic methods. We are
privileged to have various methods at our disposal including UV, IR, MS
and NMR....More
