RESEARCH INTERESTS

My research exploits analytical, synthetic, physical and process chemistry,
instrumental design and chemometrics in the following areas;
The fundamental chemistry, mechanisms, spectroscopy and analytical utility of
chemiluminescence
HPLC, flow analysis, capillary electrophoresis and microfluidics
Challenging chemical measurements in pharmaceutical production, process
monitoring, oenology and forensic science
The identification and isolation of bioactives molecules in complex matrices
using both multidimensional and preparative chromatography
