Biography
Dr.Zeliha is a full time professor at Nigde university in the department of Biotechnology. Her research interests include tyrosine tydroxylase activity, oxidative stress, antioxidants, selenium, bee products such as propolis and also natural products. Her current research concerns the antioxidant activity, in vivo oxidative stress by environmental chemicals and health risk assessment of environmental chemicals. The studing of heavy metals which environmental contaminants, toxic agents and trace metals which have some metabolic and environmental effects are important try fields. She has researched antihypertensive effects of organoselenium, bee products such as CAPE, pollen and propolis which played an important role in supression of oxidative stress, too. She has also researched biological activities of natural protective agents which is very important at detoxification of toxic chemicals. Besides, that the investigation of natural antioxidants which has metabolic significance and effects againts oxidative stress and hypertension in vivo. In addition to, synthetic antioxidants has been included her interested area. She has got two membership. These name are “Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine†and “European association for cancer researchâ€. She has got reviewership some journals. Some of these: Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, Iranian Journal of Fisheries Science, Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, Fresenius Environmental Bulletin, Biological Trace Element Research, Journal of Food Science, International Journal of Environmental Engineering Science, International Journal of Medicine and Medical Sciences, Experimental and Molecular Pathology, European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Current Drug Delivery, Asian Journal of Biochemistry, International Journal of Biological Chemistry, Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology.
