Dr. Erna Normaya Abdullah is an Associate Professor at International Islamic
University Malaysia. She received her Ph.D. in Chemistry from Universiti
Kebangsaan Malaysia in 2015. Her primary research interest is to help the community
by developing a cost-effective, movable, and easy-to-handle eco-friendly sensor for
detecting toxic elements in environmental water, which requires no special training.
This research follows the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of providing clean
water and sanitation for the community. Besides chemosensor research, she also
conducts research for the oil and gas industry to solve corrosion problems by using an
organic inhibitor, which is more environmentally friendly. Due to her research

conducts research for the oil and gas industry to solve corrosion problems by using an
organic inhibitor, which is more environmentally friendly. Due to her research
interests/expertise in computational chemistry, synthetic and analytical chemistry, as
well as drug and food inhibitors, she has served as a manuscript reviewer for several
international and reputable publishers, such as Elsevier, Springer, and Emerald. She is also one of the Institut Kimia Malaysia (IKM) members.
