Profile Overview:

  • Qualification:

    B.V.Sc. & A.H., M.Sc., PhD
  • Date of Joining NRCP:

    May, 1997
  • About:

    Dr Das has research interest in stress physiology of pig. Dr Das studied seasonal variability in expression patterns of markers of heat stress on thermal tolerance and adaptation inLarge White Yorkshire and Ghungroo pigs and explored the effect of hot summer period on the glycolytic rate of early post-mortem changes on meat qualityand from his study it was known that HSPs (HSP27, HSP70 and HSP90) and MCTs (MCT1, MCT2, and MCT4) in the pork inclined to increase when exposed to high temperature.
