Biography

I study on microbial products and their applications on medical field as well as bioremediation. I have isolated biosurfactants from Bacillus tequilensis CH and Lysinibacillus fusiformis S9. These biosurfactants are applied to inhibit the biofilm formation of pathogenic bacteria. I have also tested the anticancer property of these biosurfactant on HEK 293 cell line. The effect of these surfactants on detoxification of Cd is also studied. Besides that I have studied larvicidal effect of microbial products on mosquito larvae. Now I am focusing on effect of gallic acids on pathogenic bacteria.
