Description
Objetives
Research on the occurrence, biological activity and metabolic biotransformation of bioactive and toxic molecules in foods and plants as well as of new drugs, emphasizing on nitrogen heterocyclic compounds, indoles and alkaloids. We investigate their biological activity as enzyme inhibitors and/or substrates and their participation in the scavenging or generation of free radicals as well as in the formation of new toxic o bioactive agents.
