Research Projects
From 2007 to 2009, He participated in a CNEPRU project at the University of Tlemcen, guided by Professor Atik-Bekkara Fawzia, studying the antioxidant power of plant extracts from the Tlemcen region (Code: F 02020060040) πΏ. From 2010 to 2013, He joined another CNEPRU project under Professor Bendimered Nassima, focusing on the constituents of medicinal and aromatic plant extracts from Western Algeria (Code: E02020090065) πΊ. From 2016 to 2020, I worked on a CNEPRU project with Professor Atik-Bekkara Fawzia, exploring the biological and pharmacological potential of algae in Algerian environments (Code: D01N01UN130120150028) πͺΈ. From 2020 to 2023, I contributed to a PRFU project led by Professor Belyagoubi-Benhammou Nabila, investigating the biological, pharmacological, and cosmetic potential of Pistacia atlantica metabolites (Code: D01N01UN130120200006) π³. In 2023, I participated in a PRFU project with Dr. Badid Naima, addressing environmental pollution from olive by-products and their bio-therapeutic and cosmetological potential π.
Research focus
Dr. Nabila Belyagoubi-Benhammou’s research focuses on the bioactivity of plant extracts, particularly in the areas of enzyme inhibition, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities. She has conducted in vitro, in vivo, and in silico studies on various plants like Anabasis articulata and Pistacia atlantica. Her work also extends to the potential uses of plant extracts in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. She collaborates extensively, contributing to studies on topics like oxidative stress, cancer cell metastasis, and the phytochemical properties of Algerian olive pomace. Her research emphasizes sustainable use of natural resources. πΏπ§¬π¬π
