Research areas: My research focuses on developing and optimising techniques for analysing biological samples using HPLC-ICP-MS. My primary research area involves investigating the speciation of copper (Cu) in human fluids such as serum and milk. This work is crucial for understanding the role of Cu in various diseases, including Wilson's disease and cancer, where Cu status in human serum serves as a valuable biomarker for diagnosis and treatment. |
