Research Interest

Current research work will focus on isolation and quantification of functional components in local fruits and vegetables. The kinetic behavior of such component will also be studied under storage and processing conditions in model systems as well as real food systems. It is also important to access the bioactivity of these components and its benefits in various positive health effects physically and mentally, reducing the risk of consumers from degenerative disease and aging.
