Safe, healthy and functional foods
Aims to to study and develop Pickering emulsions and to evaluate their applications in safe, healthy and functional foods.
Aims to to study and develop Pickering emulsions and to evaluate their applications in safe, healthy and functional foods.
Will join forces in electrohydrodynamic processing to avoid the deterioration of thermo-sensitive compounds.
We want to specifically provide them with technological and methodological competences.
PICKFOOD PhD candidate at NTNU, Namrah Azmi, presented her research at the Northern Lights on Food conference at Lund University in Sweden. She was also asked to comment of the NLF Conference.
PhD candidate Xuefeng Shen has attended and contributed to three conferences representing PICKFOOD.
The 7th International Soft Matter Conference: 4-8 September 2023, Osaka, Japan – Poster presentation
NWO Physics 2024: 23th-24th January 2024, Veldhoven, the Netherlands – Oral presentation
Burgers Symposium 2024: 29th-30th May 2024, Lunteren, the Netherlands – Poster presentation
This might be the very decisive experiment on the PICKFOOD project together with ESR1 Charalampos Tsekeridis and Agathe Bélime using IN13+ at the ILL – Institut Laue Langevin in Grenoble, France…
Bruno T. Ceccato has a new paper published in the Chemical Engineering Science journal – “Numerical and experimental investigation of chaotic advection and diffusion mixing effects in 3D multihelical microfluidics for liposome synthesis”
Janus particles are often seen as Pickering emulsifiers, but their potential applications extend far beyond their excellent ability to stabilize oil droplets. Janus particles have anisotropic surfaces, which lead to novel physicochemical properties and functional attributes.
Thang Tran, a PhD researcher at Technical University of Denmark presented his poster of fabricating Janus particles with electrohydrodynamic…
Several PICKFOOD participants attended the 19th Food Colloids Conference, in Thessaloniki, Greece on 14–18 April, 2024
Aalto Pickfood microscopy course will be organized on week 49, likely from Monday 2 December to Thursday 5. December.
There will be a small number of short lectures and most of the time will be spent in the lab working on the microscopes.
There will be a workshop in Uppsala, Sweden on 10-12 January, 2024 on Pickering emulsions…
PICKFOOD was represented at the Workshop on Mesostructures and microfluidics 26-27 October, 2023 at the University of Campinas in São Paulo, Brazil.
Professor Jon Otto Fossum held a lecture on Mesostructures from natural materials during the workshop.
Tran Hong Thang (DTU – Denmark), a PhD candidate connected to PICKFOOD, was named Nordic laureate – The French Institute Nordic Award (FINA)
The FINA recognizes the quality of the work carried out by young researchers established in a Nordic institution. Moreover, it aims to promote cultural and scientific cooperation between France and the Nordic countries by participating in the funding of research mobilities in France.
