I finally had the pleasure of meeting Aj. Narumol today, she is such a wonderful instructor. You can tell that she really cares about her students since they were all excited to see her in the lab. We discussed my project in which we decided that I would work with two medicinal plants crude extract, as well as the volatile oil of two more plants including Canagium odoratum which is known as Kradanga. Kradanga is said to have medical properties such as pain relieve, inflammation reducer, insect repellent, wound healing, and antimicrobial. The oil and extracts will be used to test for antimicrobial activity.This is my first time working with medicinal plants, I look forward to learning about the techniques we will be using for this project.
