Thank you for visiting my web site. Here, my research portofolio are summarized. If you are interested in my research and want to know more details, please contact me without hesitation.
1. Research outline
I am focused on the chemistry underlying the biological functions involved in the oxidation and anti-oxidation and their application for developing useful catalysts and healthcare products. I use biochemical, spectroscopic, kinetic, thermodynamic, genetic, and computational approaches to understand the biological function and aim to solve the problems at the forefront of the chemistry for developing a sustainable and healthy society.
2. Specific area of interest
1) Microbial methane metabolism including methane-oxidation enzymology and electron transport system: mechanisms and design of new biocatalytic processes for sustainable methane conversion
2) Cellular oxidative stress caused by the enzymatic oxidation of phenol-derivatives and the autoxidation of catechol-derivatives
3) Antioxidant activity of food-containing tripeptides and its effect on suppressing oxidative stress: rational screening and design of antioxidant tripeptides
