Specialties : Food Engineering, Food Processing, Food preservation, Biosensing
Research Interests :
- Novel food processing techniques: ohmic heating, selective far infrared (FIR) heating, pulsed UV light treatment and high pressure processing.
- Nanotechnology, carbon nanotubes (CNT) application: CNTs can be applied not only to special surface treatment but also biosensing in food industries, i.e. CNT modified electrode.
- Biosensors: SPR biosensor for detection of pathogens such as Salmonella and Listeria in eggs, meat, juice, and milk. Fiber optic fluorescence based biosensors will be applied to monitor pathogens in food and health sectors.
- FTIR spectroscopy: Measurement of sugars and sweeteners in dairy and other liquid type foods, kavalactones in kava juices, and microbial detection in liquid foods.
- Food packaging: Development of retort pouches for beef products to be value added.
