This project involved the separation, purification, and characterization of proteins from Garcinia kola seeds through sample preparation via slicing, oven-drying, grinding, defatting, and protein extraction using the urea/thiourea solubilization method, protein precipitation using the ammonium sulfate recipitation method, followed by SDS-PAGE analysis and Bradford Assay.
There is a growing interest in metal complexes with selenium ligands. Unfortunately, literature on nickel and palladium complexes with selenium ligands is very scanty. Hence, the aim of this research project was to report any nickel-selenium and palladium-selenium complexes and add to the existing research on nickel and palladium complexes with selenium ligands. Our results are presented in a PDF file attached to this page.
In addition, I reviewed and followed experimental procedures for the preparation of inorganic compounds like nickel and palladium complexes and characterized obtained complexes using spectroscopic methods like NMR and IR.
Driven by curiosity, I’m passionate about blending research, leadership, and service to create a positive impact.
