Research Interests

Our current research is aimed at advancing basic knowledge and technology, and providing technical support to our country in the processing of plant materials into useful products. Specific areas of expertise include: separation and purification of effective constitutes from biotechnology products and neutraceutics, and the reusing of wastes. Major research emphasizes on supercritical fluid & hot pressurized fluid extractions, and physical-chemical property & phase equilibrium measurement.

Active applications include the recovery of saponins and catechins from tea, flavonoids and phenolic acids from Propolis, essential oils from nature materials, marker compounds from plants, etc. and bio-availability assay collaborated with CMU and VGHTC.
