RESEARCH INTEREST
- Evaluation of the toxic and teratogenic effect synthesized chemically by bacteria by using zebrafish embryos model (Danio rerio) through monitoring of embryos development and survival
- Investigation of the destructive roles in the biodeterioration library materials through testing of their capabilities to degraded of painting, paper and parchment to exploit painting pigments as the sole source
- Functional diversity from truffles’ fruit bodies, with the aim to clarify the potential roles of bacteria in the truffles fruit body nutrition during its and protection from soil mycopathogenic fungi
