Hands on Experience, Training and Technical Tools

During the past 20 years I have been productively engaged in research and demonstrated great interest and enthusiasm to pursue a PhD degree in Chemistry. My research interest is on HPLC techniques for identifying, quantifying and purifying mixtures used in analytical and biomedical sciences. I have trained and got experiences on how to run and maintenance of HPLC instruments. My training took place in U A E, Dubai (1998). I also was trained in Kuwait for Rapid Detection for Hazards in the Food Industry & Environment in 2002. I also examined the Effects Of Endurance Training On The Gluconeogenic Rate During A Glucose Challenge And An Exercise Stress, the result of that study have been presented at an international conference at Los Angles U.S.A.in 1990. At SQU, I have worked on the Application of the Instrumental Methods to the Determination of Solar and Non-solar Photoisomerisms and Photodegradation Products of Bilirubin
