Research Laboratory of Plant Resources and Pharmacobotany

The Research Laboratory of Plant Resources and Pharmacobotany is an important component of research infrastructure that addresses the priority areas of modern science and is based on interdisciplinary integration.

   Objectives and Research Areas of the Laboratory

 The laboratory aims to conduct comprehensive studies of plant biodiversity in the flora of Kazakhstan, assess the resource potential of native and introduced plants, and determine their pharmacological value.

 The main research activities include identifying plant resources and studying plant distribution ranges, ecological characteristics, and population status. The research also focuses on addressing issues related to the conservation, sustainable use, and restoration of rare and endangered plant species.

  In pharmacobotany, modern analytical methods are widely used to investigate the morphological and anatomical structures of medicinal plants, their phytochemical composition, and biologically active compounds. These studies provide a scientific basis for assessing and standardizing medicinal plant raw materials and developing new herbal preparations.

  The Research Laboratory of Plant Resources and Pharmacobotany is focused on the efficient use of plant resources and the development of the domestic pharmaceutical industry.

  Students, master’s students, and doctoral students conduct research activities in the laboratory. Students develop practical skills in studying plant resources, identifying the morphological and anatomical characteristics of medicinal, rare, and endemic plants, and investigating the biological and ecological properties of plants.

 Head of the Research Laboratory of Plant Resources and Pharmacobotany: Bekzat Makulbayuly Tynybekov, Candidate of Biological Sciences, Professor.
