Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Gaurav Gajurel's research focuses on the production and characterization of bioactive compounds from plant cell cultures, particularly hairy root cultures. He investigates methods to enhance the yield of these compounds, including the use of elicitors and the study of plant stress responses. His work has explored the synthesis of prenylated stilbenoids, flavonoids, and triterpenoids from species such as peanut (*Arachis hypogaea*), pigeon pea (*Cajanus cajan*), and *Dalea purpurea*. Gajurel also designs and synthesizes novel chemical entities with potential therapeutic applications, such as dual inhibitors for combating antibiotic-resistant infections like MRSA. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 3, with 12 publications and 50 citations. He has a notable collaboration history with researchers at Arkansas State University, including Fabricio Medina-Bolívar, Amit Raj Sharma, Robert C. Shields, and Rokib Hasan.
