Mr Vijaykumar Bodarya

Higher Degree by Research Candidate

School of Chemical Engineering

College of Engineering and Information Technology


I am a Doctoral Researcher working at the intersection of advanced materials, sensor technologies, and process monitoring. My work focuses on developing practical, scalable tools that improve real-time monitoring and quality control, particularly within mRNA and LNP-based biomanufacturing.
 
I have designed and integrated sensor platforms for monitoring critical parameters in mRNA manufacturing, including optical biosensing systems, microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices, and nanostructured materials. My research also involves LNP characterization and ethanol detection studies before and after dialysis to support process optimization.
 
Alongside sensor development, I investigate nanostructured materials such as Nanoporous Anodic Alumina (NAA) for applications in surface modification, molecular filtration, and chemical/biological sensing.
 
I have strong hands-on experience with key analytical and characterization tools, including Raman spectroscopy, UV–Vis, DLS, plate reader–based colorimetric assays, SEM, TEM, XRD, EDAX, and related techniques used for evaluating materials and validating processes.
 
Driven by the potential of materials science and engineering, I aim to contribute to sustainable, reliable, and impactful technological solutions through interdisciplinary research and innovation.
