Sensomic Analysis of Animal-Derived Fragrance Raw Materials (Castoreum, Hyraceum, Beeswax, Civet, Ambergris) – the aim of this doctoral project is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of these fragrance materials using, among others, organic synthesis techniques, GCxGC-MS/MS, GCxGC-MS-O, and LC-MS/MS, combined with an assessment of their toxicity and application properties. The research is planned in collaboration with the Perfume Chemistry team at Université Côte d’Azur in Nice.
Chromatographic, Spectral, and Biological Properties Analysis of Plant Waxes – Currently, commercially available plant waxes do not reflect the full potential of niche raw materials, which are presently treated as waste in the production of concretes (intermediates in the process of obtaining absolutes). The aim of this doctoral research is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of these niche waxes using, among other methods, GCxGC-MS/MS, GCxGC-MS-O, pyGCxGC-MS/MS, and LC-MS/MS, combined with an assessment of toxicity and application properties, including their use in modern cosmetic formulations. The project is planned to be carried out in collaboration with a leading Egyptian producer of natural fragrance and flavor raw materials.
Analysis of the Antimicrobial Properties of Natural Products Against Animal Pathogens. The aim of this doctoral research is to search for complex natural mixtures (NCS) that are active against selected animal pathogens. To achieve this goal, various microbiological and chromatographic techniques will be employed, including GCxGC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS. The project will be conducted in collaboration with the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences.
