Post Graduate template Please fill in details below: Dr. Ajit Kumar (PhD), Post-Doctoral Fellow Research Project: Microbial degradation of chlorinated organic compounds BSc Medical Sciences (M.D. University, Rohtak, India), MSc Genetics (M.D. University, Rohtak, India), Brief Description of Research Ph.D. Biotechnology (National Chemical Laboratory, My research is focused on the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic Pune University, Pune, India) acid, 2,4-dichlorophenol and 1,2-dichloroethane by indigenous bacterial strains and deciphering the degradation pathway. This is achieved by Telephone: 031 2608415 studying degradation of compounds by bacterial cultures and analysis by Email: Agilent GC Quadropole MS/MS system and identification of compounds in NIST and PBM library. The study is also aimed to clone, over-express, purify and characterize the enzymes involved in the degradation pathways. The ultimate aim is to immobilize the enzymes on for application in bioremediation of polluted sites. Supervisor Prof. A.O. Olaniran
