My research interest is in the field of green technology using beneficial microbes (e.g: bacteria, microalgae, fungi etc.) to maintain ecological balance in both marine and freshwater aquaculture system. In this role, my major research focuses on the development of sustainable aquaculture system using biofloc technology (BFT) on most valuable freshwater species including Giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii), Jade perch (Scortum barcoo) and Tinfoil barb (Barbonymus schanenfeldii). Instead of serving as supplemented live feed for aquaculture organisms, BFT offers alternative methods to treat wastewater. Most of the projects are focused on the identification of microbial compositions by morphological and molecular approaches, metabolite production and how water quality is influenced by the anticipated waste loads to investigate the mechanism for biofloc formation. Our innovative product namely as Rapid BFTTM were tested on high commercial value marine species including Whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), Black Tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) and Mud crab (Scylla sp.), and are currently available in the market
