|
| Nanoparticles and Colloidal Systems |
| Nanoscale engineering: nanoencapsulation of bioactive components for controlled drug release and food applications. The design of nanoparticle/colloidal systems is one of the main research thrusts of the lab. We focus on targeted delivery of vitamins, antioxidants, colorants, and antifungals via colloidal and nanoparticle systems. |
|
| Microwave Extractions of Bioactive Components |
| Process development: microwave heating, supercritical fluid extraction of bioactive components from plants. The design of continuous-flow microwave systems for food and bioenergy processes is explored. |
|
| Numerical Methods of Multiphysics Phenomena |
| Mathematical modeling: numerical modeling of bioprocesses involving multiphysics phenomena. Continuous-flow focused microwave heating is analyzed using ANSYS Multiphysics. |
