Research Interests
His research interests lie in natural bioactives and their therapeutic potential, spanning optimised extraction using response surface methodology, standardisation of assays, and the development of nutraceuticals. Evaluation areas include hepatoprotective, antidiabetic, anti-glycation, neuroprotective, wound-healing and anticancer activity, alongside antimicrobial resistance and valorisation of fruit-processing residues, integrating experimental and computational approaches
