Emerging Food Technologies and Nutraceuticals Strategic Research Group uri icon

This research group promotes innovative technologies through the convergence of different disciplines to develop and consolidate the identification of nutraceutical compounds mainly associated with grains and plants, which can be used to prevent and treat chronic degenerative diseases. We work on developing foods with health-promoting properties and innovative ingredients obtained using emerging technologies. We also conduct research in Agrobiotechnology, especially in studying entomofauna in stored grains and the detoxification of grain-based foods containing mycotoxins, which are considered the second most important public health problem in the world
