Research field Biotechnical sciences – agriculture – plant protection
The study of biologically active secondary metabolites of plants, including their extraction, purification, and chemical characterization. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of plant extracts, along with the chemical characterization of secondary metabolites, to identify biologically active components. Evaluating the effectiveness of plant secondary metabolites in suppressing weeds and phytopathogenic fungi, as well as protecting plant products from harmful rodents. Examining the antioxidant response of plants to stress induced by various abiotic and biotic factors, through the evaluation of lipid peroxidation levels and antioxidant enzyme activity. Analysis of the chemical and physical properties of plant protection products (pesticides) and mineral fertilizers and soil conditioners. |
