Research Interests
•Investigation of functional properties of phytochemicals, mainly derived from fermented soybean foods, tea and herbs, including inhibitory effects on key enzymes relevant to the management of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases (in particular hypertension and type 2 diabetes), using in vitro/in vivo assay and virtual screening.
•Separation and characterization of bioactive compounds with focus on peptides, polyphenols and Maillard reaction products (MRPs) by chromatography and spectroscopic methods, and their action mechanism.
•Effect of processing on the functional properties of final food products and the compositional and structural profiles of the bioactive constituents.
•Screening, identification and properties of microorganisms linked to the fermentation of foods with health benefits (such as Bacillus subtilis, Aspergillus oryzae).
