Description of the research activity:

The researcher(s) will be engaged in the study of oxidative stability of foods and the improvement of product quality and safety through the use of natural antioxidants. The research activity will involve the chemical-physical and functional characterization of polyphenols from plant matrices and agri-food by-products, as well as their application for the control of lipid and protein oxidation. The effects of food processing technologies on the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of antioxidants will be evaluated. Research will include advanced analytical approaches, such as HPLC chromatography, NMR spectroscopy, electrochemical and calorimetric techniques. Scientific production and contribution to the acquisition of research funding is expected.
