Research Experience
I prepared organic extracts from plant samples for bioassay and isolation of compounds. I did bioassay, such as germination, herbicidal, and insecticidal activities using the prepared plant extracts. I did chromatographic separation of bioactive plant extracts for isolation of active components. I also got a little experience of chemical structure determination by UV, IR, NMR, and MS spectrometry.
