About
Huu Duc Nguyen is a pioneering researcher in environmental toxicology and biosensor development, with a focused expertise in detecting carcinogenic compounds using innovative biological platforms. His most cited work, "Procarcinogens – Determination and Evaluation by Yeast-Based Biosensor Transformed with Plasmids Incorporating RAD54 Reporter Construct and Cytochrome P450 Genes" (2016), has garnered 17 citations and represents a landmark contribution to the field. In this study, Nguyen engineered a novel yeast-based biosensor system that integrates a RAD54 reporter construct with cytochrome P450 genes, enabling the sensitive detection and evaluation of procarcinogens—substances that require metabolic activation to become carcinogenic. This breakthrough addresses a critical environmental challenge in Vietnam, where industrial, agricultural, and healthcare activities release numerous toxic compounds into ecosystems. By creating a cost-effective, rapid, and reliable biosensor, Nguyen’s work offers a practical tool for monitoring environmental carcinogens, with significant implications for public health and regulatory safety. His research bridges molecular biology and environmental science, demonstrating how synthetic biology can solve real-world pollution problems. Nguyen’s innovative approach has established him as a key figure in biosensor technology, inspiring further applications in toxicology and environmental monitoring across Southeast Asia.
