Research Interests
Major research responsibility is in the
area of food chemistry with emphasis on application of emerging
processing technologies to recover natural antioxidants
in grapes and other fruit products. Natural antioxidants
contained in such fruits as grapes, blueberries, strawberries
and seed oil extracts are being compared to commercial antioxidants
for their ability to inhibit oxidation in fish lipid model
systems and seafood products.
A secondary area of interest is to examine
selected antioxidant extracts for their biological properties
in preventing tumor growth and the proposed mechanism(s)
of action in invitro cell model systems.
