ABOUT US

Central Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants, popularly known as CIMAP, is a frontier plant research laboratory of Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR). Established originally as Central Indian Medicinal Plants Organisation (CIMPO) in 1959, CIMAP is steering multidisciplinary high quality research in biological and chemical sciences and extending technologies and services to the farmers and entrepreneurs of medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) with its research headquarter at Lucknow and Research Centres at Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pantnagar and Purara. CIMAP Research Centres are aptly situated in different agro-climatic zones of the country to facilitate multi-location field trials and research. A little more than 50 years since its inception, today, CIMAP has extended its wings overseas with scientific collaboration agreements with Malaysia.....  readmorebutton

Achievements

Significant contributions have been made in the area of medicinal chemistry. Detailed chemical and biological investigations of selected Indian medicinal and aromatic plants resulted in the isolation and identification of a number of new anticancer, antimalarial, antifilarial, antipsychotic, antitubercular, immunomodulatory, antidiabetic, antioxidant, antimicrobial and bioenhancing leads. Similarly many semi-synthetic derivatives have shown potent anticancer activity against hormone-dependent breast cancer, oral and liver cancer cell lines. Some of these natural compounds were also studied for QSAR, docking and ADMET guided lead optimization and the results are very interesting and may be of great help in the drug development from very common, inexpensive, and nontoxic natural products. Using modern Fast Centrifugal Partition Chromatographic (FCPC) method, novel preparative scale isolation processes for several bioactive molecules have been developed.
