Biography
Xiao Dan received his Bachelor's,Master's, and Doctoral degrees from Hunan University. From 1982 to 2002, he served as a teaching assistant/lecturer/associate professor/professor in the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of Hunan University. He joined the School of Chemical Engineering and the School of Chemistry of Sichuan University since 2003, and has been a Professor in the Institute of New Energy and Low-Carbon Technology of Sichuan University since 2013. Xiao is mainly engaged in teaching and research in the field of analytical chemistry and process chemistry. Focuses on chemical and biological sensors and rapid analytical identification methods. We have researched and prepared biosensors for life substances such as nucleic acids, enzymes, antigens, antibodies, etc. Intelligent sensor test instruments were prepared for on-site analysis and identification. Chemical and biosensors are developed for the chemical identification of subject and object, supramolecular self-assembly and nanoscale recognition and sensing mechanisms, which are applied to the field analysis and rapid identification methods of Chinese herbal medicines, and the separation, purification and characterization of Chinese herbal medicines, as well as the study of the interaction between Chinese herbal medicine molecules and living substances.
