Remedy inside the test tubers

Article Abstract:

Institute of Grassland and Environmental Research, Aberystwyth, Wales, Head of Chemistry Dr Robert Nash has been researching British plants to try to find new chemical compounds. New types of equipment allows Nash and his team to fully investigate the plants. Dr Nash also works for a commercial company, Molecular Nature Ltd. He points out it can be also as difficult to obtain new equipment in the commercial firm as at the Institute. He also suggests working for a company increases the need to find results. Dr Nash is reexamining compounds in herbal remedies, such as dandelions.
