Biography

He is currently workinga as a Professor in National Chiayi University in Department of Applied Chemistry. He has completed his Ph.D., National Taiwan University (1992). His Research area is Bio-Analytical Chemistry. His research interest has been focused on analytical method development for searching for bioactive compounds from bio-natural sources. The ongoing project s i ncluding developing an analytical method by using HPLC coupled with enzyme reaction for determination of antioxidants in plants, developing a peptide analysis system for fungi infected insects by using LC and ESI-ion trap mass, developing ESI-MS methods for analysis of bioactive compounds (antioxidants, ant tumor agents, peptides and proteins), developing plant tissue culture system for production of stil benoids , especially for piceatannol and resveratrol. He had more publications.
