Lecturer II (234) 706 240 9078 atewolara-odule.odunayo@oouagoiwoye.edu.ng
Biography
I obtained Ph. D. Organic Chemistry at the University of Ibadan, with Specialisation in Natural Products in 2017. I have been able to isolate and characterise the chemical components of some plants which are good remedy for diabetes and hypertension. My research interest is to isolate and characterise of natural products from indigenous plants that are bioactive. Also, to determine the biological activity of natural products such as anti-diabetic, anticancer and antimicrobial. Isolation and characterisation of essential oils from medicinal plats for medicinal potentials and economic importance.
