Research Areas

Research interests within the Department of Microbiology – Biochemistry – Molecular Biology are focused on the following areas:
• Microorganisms in healthy food production: focusing on substances with high biological activities (anti-diabetes, anti-hypertension, anti-oxidation, anti-cancer cells, etc.) derived from microorganisms.
• Microorganisms in production of feed and feed additives: creating bioproducts to increase the digestibility of animal feed and enhance animal health.
• Enzyme technology: focusing mainly on acquisition, separation, purification, and stabilization of natural and recombinant enzyme preparations and exploiting their applicability.
• Environmental treatment technology: exploiting microorganisms to treat wastewater and solid waste. Integrate technology and processing equipment systems to improve treatment efficiency and reduce energy costs.
• Development of rapid analytical methods: exploiting enzyme technology, molecular biology and immunology to develop rapid test kits to detect pathogenic microorganisms and toxins in medical settings, food products, and livestock.
