Over the last 20 years he has had interests in a variety of research areas including microbial physiology and molecular biology, fermentation technology and bioreactor design, free and immobilised cell culture, production and overproduction of antimicrobial agents and variety of enzymes working with bacteria and fungi:
Free and immobilised cell cultures: Investigation of scale-up potential for immobilised cells using variety of fermenter designs up to 400 L air-lift reactor, working with model modified bacteria and fungi; design of an in-house bead-maker for fast and consistent hydrogel beads.
Stability of Degradative plasmids: Use of microbes as vehicles for degradation of xenobiotics exploiting large plasmids in batch and continuous culture.
Antimicrobial and antitumor agents:
Overproduction of swainsonine as an antitumor agent produced by Metarhizium anisopliae in batch and fed-batch cultures, exploring fermenter design.
The use of wood extractives as antimicrobial agents. (EU grant, )
