Dissertation Trainee

CSIR - Indian Institute of Toxicology Research, Lucknow

Thesis Title: In Vitro Toxicity Assessment of Polystyrene Nanoplastics in Chinese Hamster Lung fibroblast cells (V-79)

A concentration-dependent increase in irregular cell morphology was observed, with decreased cell viability in the Trypan Blue and Comet assays. ROS assay indicated varied response, suggesting alternative toxicity pathways at higher PS NPs exposure.

Summer Research Intern

Centre for Biotechnology and Biochemical Engineering, Amity Institute of Biotechnology, Amity University Uttar Pradesh.

Project: Biogenic Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles using Endophytic Bacteria Isolated from Andrographis paniculata and its Potential Applications as Anticancer and Antibacterial Agents

Endophytic bacteria identified as Priestia megaterium were used to synthesize silver nanoparticles, which were characterized by UV-Visible Spectrophotometry, FTIR, and SEM. The nanoparticles showed significant antibacterial activity and reduction in cell viability in the Hep G2 cell line.
