Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher's work centers on pharmacokinetics (how drugs move through and are eliminated from the body) of antibiotics like florfenicol in farmed fish species such as Nile tilapia and Asian seabass, aiming to determine optimal drug dosing and safe withdrawal times before harvest. Related work includes protein folding and stability studies, enzyme kinetics relevant to antiviral drug screening (including SARS-CoV-2 proteases), and some earlier work on materials science and plant stress biology. The research combines aquaculture veterinary science with biochemical and biophysical methods.
