CNHMR, Chemistry Research Centre

CNHMR, Chemistry Research Centre Sanctioned in 2009 as an approved research Centre under the University of Kerala, the Centre for Nanoscience and Human Milk Research (CNHMR) is an incubation Centre for advanced research in the synthesis of Biocomposite Films, Nanomaterials and Human Milk Powder. In fact, the Research Centre is one of the pioneers in the production of Nanocellulose, Nanochitin and Biocomposite films. There are 6 research scholars pursuing Ph.D. under the guidance of 4 University approved research guides. The Centre has so far produced four Ph.Ds and has to its credit three Indian patents. The Centre has been supported by the DST FIST scheme of the Government of India.  The Centre has extensive laboratory facilities with sophisticated instrumentation facilities like freeze dryer, probe sonicators, refrigerated centrifuge, vacuum oven, moisture analyser, etc. The Centre has executed several major and minor research projects funded by DST, KSCSTE and UGC. MSc students are motivated to take up student projects funded by KSCSTE. Several MSc projects have been published in international journals of high impact factor. It has conducted various collaborative research projects with reputed institutions like Pushpagiri Research Centre, Vellore Institute of Technology, etc. The Centre has one ongoing project of Rs.40 lakhs, funded by the DST and DBT, Government of India.  More than 200 publications have been produced in peer-reviewed international journals from the Centre till date.  In addition, more than 40 book chapters and 5 books have been edited by the Centre.
