Applications of Organic – Analytical Chemistry for the development of novel bioactive preparations for utilization as food additives, functional foods, biocides and medicines for humans-animals.
Specifically research focuses on:
a) NATURAL PRODUCTS – ENVIRONMENT
i. isolation – valorisation of bioactive molecules and extracts from plants of Greek flora
ii. management & valorization of agricultural wastes – byproducts
iii. evaluation – mitigation of the climate change consequences
b) FOODS
i. development – production of novel food additives – supplements
ii. exploitation – certification of Greek traditional agricultural products
iii. development of novel functional foods
c) BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY for the development of novel synthetic and natural
molecules-extracts displayingactivities as:
i. anti – estrogens,for the treatment of gynecological cancers and the consequences menopause
ii. angiogenesis in hibitors, targeting the treatment of malignant cells – tumors proliferation and
metastasis.
