8 years of experience
Dr. Kamal serves in the Institute of Chemistry, Khwaja Fareed University of Engineering & Information Technology Rahim Yar Khan, Pakistan. He is an experienced teacher and researcher of analytical chemistry with around 8 years of experience. He obtained PhD degree from University of Chinese Academy of Sciences Beijing China by availing the prestigious CAS-TWAS President’s Fellowship. After his PhD, he also worked at Government College University Faisalabad Pakistan. Research area of Dr. Kamal is mainly focused on Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry covering the fields of food, nutrition and disease/drug metabolomics, food chemistry, environmental chemistry. To date Dr. Kamal has published 53 journal papers with several in high impact factor journals. Dr. Kamal has also published 08 book chapters and participated in several national and international conferences/seminars/trainings. He has also focussed his research on the valorisation of bio wastes into value added products and 03 of such ideas have been filed as patents. Till date Dr. Kamal has supervised 43 MS and 02 PhD Chemistry students. He has completed 02 Start-up Research Grants from Higher Education Commission of Pakistan in the capacity of PI and Co-PI. He also won a big research grant (on-going) from Higher Education Commission of Pakistan as PI.
Dr. Ghulam Mustafa Kamal specializes in analytical and bioanalytical instrumentation, with extensive hands-on experience in the operation, maintenance, and application of advanced equipment used in food, environmental, metabolomics, and health-related research. His expertise includes:
• High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) – including gradient and isocratic systems, diode-array detectors (DAD), and fluorescence detection for quantitative and qualitative analysis.
• Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) – for targeted and untargeted metabolomics, food safety, contaminant profiling, and bioactive compound identification.
• Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) – including headspace and derivatization techniques for volatile and semi-volatile compound analysis.
• Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy – Mostly 1D NMR (¹H, ¹³C) for metabolic fingerprinting.
• UV-Visible Spectrophotometers – for routine analytical measurements, antioxidant assays, and kinetic studies.
• Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry – for determination of potentially toxic elements for the assessment of health risks in foods..
• Centrifuges (high-speed and ultra) – for bio-sample processing and extraction workflows.
• Rotary Evaporators and Freeze Dryers – for solvent removal and sample preservation in extraction and formulation work.
• pH meters, Conductivity Meters, and Water Activity Meters – for environmental and food sample quality evaluation.
• Software & Data Analysis Tools – Proficient in NMRSpec, Origin, SIMCA (PCA/PLS-DA/OPLS-DA) etc.
Dr. Kamal applies these tools in multidisciplinary projects involving food authenticity, environmental monitoring, functional foods, bioactive discovery, and waste valorisation.
