Research Interest
Food safety and shelf-life extension of food products; design of novel nanoscale materials using biopolymers for biotechnology and food applications. In particular, study of stimuli-responsive biopolymer nanostructures capable of responding to changes in the surrounding environment and this response can be tuned to achieve the desired output. These stimuli-responsive nanostructures have been investigated in food safety applications as delivery systems of antimicrobials and as platforms for foodborne pathogen detection (biosensor).
