research direction
Food is the material basis for human survival and development, and food safety is a major issue related to human health and the national economy and people's livelihood. With the rapid development of economic globalization, while basically solving the problem of food supply, food safety and hygiene have attracted more and more attention from the international community. In recent years, vicious incidents have occurred frequently in some regions and countries in the world, and food safety has no national boundaries. The food problem in one part of the world is likely to spread all over the world, which has a great impact on the food safety of other countries.
research contents
(1) Improve the quality and yield of food raw materials and agricultural products through genetic engineering and cell engineering;
(2) Using genetic engineering and fermentation engineering to produce "green" antioxidants and preservatives for preserving agricultural products;
(3) Through genetic engineering, fermentation engineering, enzyme engineering, protein engineering and molecular evolution engineering, the food processing technology is highly efficient, the added value of food is improved, the utilization rate of agricultural products is improved, and the health care function of food is improved;
(4) Using genetic engineering, enzyme engineering and fermentation engineering to reduce food losses, improve the efficiency of food quality management and ensure food quality and safety;
(5) Use fermentation engineering and enzyme engineering to treat wastes, improve resource utilization and reduce environmental pollution.
