Food Chemistry Laboratory

About

Qualitative and quantitative analyses of nutrients and components in food and other organic samples are carried out in our laboratory. These analyses are important for studies investigating food quality, acceptability and their health effects.

Our laboratory is used in laboratory and practical applications of courses named Basic Chemistry and Nutritional Chemistry in Nutrition and Dietetics Undergraduate Program; and in tutorials and thesis studies of graduate programs including Nutrition Sciences, Dietetics, Community Nutrition and Collective Nutrition Systems Master's Programs and Nutrition and Dietetics Doctorate Program. It is also used in the individual research projects of faculty members.
