University

Looking for a consortium as a partner to contribute to the Topic 2.3.1-2023 (RIA) Assessing novel antimicrobial food packaging and coating materials to reduce food waste to improve safety in the Mediterranean food supply chain”. Our research area is the formulation of functional foods, cereal processing and designing natural antimicrobials by encapsulation and complexation techniques. We have two ongoing research projects aiming to produce antimicrobial food preservatives to be used in various cereal products. We will be able to contribute to Topic 2.3.1 by synthesizing and characterisation various natural antimicrobial biopolymers to be used in packaging materials.
