Dr. Guhan Jayaraman
guhanj@iitm.ac.in
Associate Professor
Dept of Biotechnology
IIT Madras

Education
Ph.D, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
M.Tech, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi

Research Interests
  • Recombinant Protein production:
    Current work involves the investigation of different host-vector systems; studying the kinetic and thermodynamic limitations of gene over-expression; and evolving optimal bioreactor strategies for high-yield production of recombinant proteins.
  • Design of novel bioseparation processes for large-scale protein purification:
    Non-linear liquid chromatographic processes; development of affinity-based aqueous two-phase extraction processes for protein purification; protein re-folding.
  • Design of Microfluidic Devices for Biomolecular Analysis:
    This project has been recently initiated, mainly focused on development of silicon-based microfabricated devices for DNA analysis. Development of high throughput devices will have a significant impact on genome sequencing technologies.
