Research topic: surface activity of saponins obtained from plants growing in Poland.

The object of my research is the extraction of saponins from different plants growing in Poland and finding the optimum growth stage of those plants. The main goal of my research is the description of surface activity of saponins and surface rheology parameters (the elastic modulus and the viscous modulus) of the layers adsorbed at the liquid/gas interfaces.
