Indian
Instittue of Integrative Medicine, Jammu
(IIIMJ) is a multi- disciplinary organization having
the facility for advance product Chemistry,
Pharmacology, Biotechnology and Botanical Sciences.
The major areas of research include standardizing
the agro technology of Medicinal and Aromatic
plants, their propagation techniques , isolation of
active fraction/s and single molecules from such
plants. Screening for the bioactivity of
these plants extracts/ fractions and molecules and
exploiting the microbes for useful reactions. Identifcation and standardization of the
chemotypes and genotypes of the plants by the
molecular finger printing. IIIMJ is also involved in
the screening of microbial wealth from niche areas
of North West Himalayas for the isolation and
application of useful enzymes for industrial
processes. Several enzymes like lipase/esterase,
peroxidase, oxido-reductase, nitrilase and
glucosidase have been identified and their
functional properties established. We have a large
repository of natural as well as synthetic compounds
which are being screened for various activities
using insilico approach. |
