Marwa A. A. Fayed

PeerJ Editor, Author & Reviewer

Summary

Dr. Marwa Fayed is an Associate Professor of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry within the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Sadat City, Egypt.
Interested in Phytochemical and Pharmacognostical studies of medicinal plants, isolation of bioactive constituents from different natural sources using advanced chromatographic techniques (separation on VLC, column chromatography using different adsorbents such as RP, Sephadex, Cellulose or Polyamide and separation using PC), structure elucidation of naturally isolated compounds using different spectroscopic techniques (1D, 2D).

More recently, she has developed a significant interest in monitoring the pharmacological effects and mechanism of action of different classes of chemical compounds isolated from natural sources and their possible role in medicine.
