Professor Iqbal Ahmad
Co-Principal Investigator

My role in ResPHARM is to examine the antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) from pharmaceutical waste. I will be responsible for the maintenance of bacterial cultures and their biochemical and molecular characterization. The genotypic characterization of resistant genes of ARB is by PCR is another aspect that I am contributing.

Professor Mohammad Saghir Khan
Co-Investigator

My responsibility in ResPHARM is to establish methods for resistance profiling of bacterial cultures. I also contribute to the phenotypic characterisation of cultures obtained from field samples at two sites and the genotypic analysis of selected resistant phenotypes.

Dr. Faizan Abul Qais
