University Partner studying on Innovative Functional Food Product Development and Organic Farming

We are a group of researchers working on new innovative functional food development and experienced in food waste valorization. Our Gastronomy and Culinary Arts Department is experienced in innovative food product development for F&B sector, sensory panel organisation, aroma compounds analysis by GCMS, profesional kitchen design, food waste management and sustainability. We are working in Central Research Laboratory of Altınbaş University. We can also perform analytical experiments of our newly developed products and develop analytical methods in our central research laboratory (HPLC, GCMS, Multi-plate reader etc.). We have SME partners (restaurants and butique factories) working on organic farming, sustainability and biopesticide development. Our researchers are also experienced on conventional and high technology extraction methods (i.e. SCO2, subcritical water), encapsulation techniques (i.e. coacervation, PGSS technology) and molecular gastronomy.

We want to be a partner in a consortium. We can lead innovative food or biopesticide production and test their analytical properties and consumer acceptance, and develop kitchen processes, reducing the water losses.

We have SME contacts and can help the coordinator to find SME partners.
