Technology and Food Science
Research Unit
Main organisation:Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
Lifecycle:1 Oct 2002 → Today
Organisation profile:
This unit comprises three research areas (Agricultural Engineering, Food Safety and Product Quality and Innovation). Technical, mathematical and IT methods support mechanization and automation in production. We study the safety (microbiological and chemical) and quality of all types of foodstuffs. We develop methods to detect GMOs and allergens and to determine authenticity. We seek new functions and valorization of food products.
