14TH INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH SCHOOL
Medicinal plants against bacteria
Ecology, Plant physiology, Botany, Biochemistry, Pharmacognosy
Due to the rapid development of industry and modern pharmacology, the principles of traditional medicine are gradually being lost. However, access to such advanced technology is not available in all regions of our planet.
Rhodiola rosea (Rhodiola rosea L.) is one of the famous medicinal plants. But many people are more familiar with the folk names of rhodiola - "golden root", "Siberian ginseng".
Scientific research of traditional medicine is mostly based on the isolation of bioactive components for possible use in the pharmaceutical industry. At the same time, not much effort is being put into applying the results of research for the rational use of medicinal plants in everyday life.
Shtam bacteria on the nutrient medium
On our project, IRS participants from different countries will be able to get acquainted with the medicinal flora of their regions. During the field trips, we will learn to recognize such plants, and then remotely interact with the participants from other countries. Then we will isolate biologically active substances from the collected plants and investigate their effect on various bacteria using the cultivation and sowing method.
