Biography
Dr. Jifeng Liu, received his Ph.D in Analytical Chemistry in 2004 from Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry (CIAC), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). After postdoctoral research at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), he came to Liaocheng University in October 2007 as a professor in the Department of Chemistry. Since January 2015, he became a professor in College of Food Engineering & Biotechnology, Tianjin University of Science and Technology. His research focuses on development of analytical methods in food safety, bioantioxidants, peptide material. He published over 90 scientific papers.
Research Interests
The vast majority of nature enzymes are proteins which possess outstanding catalytic activity and high substrate specificity and the catalytic activity originated from the binding and catalytic centres are the essential features of enzyme catalysis. In the past decades, artificial enzymes or enzyme mimics have been actively pursued as potentially viable alternatives to natural enzymes. They are expected to have less complex structures but similar catalytic activities to the natural counterparts; lower molecular weights; higher stability, especially at high temperatures; better solubility in a wide range of solvents. Jifeng Liu’s research focuses on using various scaffolds to fabricate artificial enzymes to imitate the structural features and the catalytic mechanisms of natural enzymes used in food safety.
