Research Interests

As PhD student, his research focused on the phytochemistry of Isodon herbs, e.g. Isodon rubescense, I. japonica, and I. eriocalyx. 

After join in ICM, CUHK, his research interest was further extended to the study of chemistry, and bioactivities of polysaccharides in Chinese medicines. 

 

Now in SCM, HKBU, his research focuses on the quality analysis of Chinese medicine decoction and polysaccharide-rich Chinese medicines, as well as the chemistry, oral bioavailability, and bioactivities of polysaccharide. 

 

With experiences in the above research fields, he got prepared for the next goal: to establish an innovative platform to translate herb formula into combined chemicals using commonly-used animal models, which is expected to be a pathway to figure out the profile of active ingredients of herbal formula.
