Meat Quality Analysis

Dr. Ashim Biswas has worked in method development and quality evaluation of meat for various biochemical compounds including proteomes, meat colour, texture profiles, lipid molecules, lipid oxidation products, antimicrobial residues, pesticides, bioactive compounds and pathogen identification. Dr. Prabhat Mandal has long experience of new meat product development, food safety and quality evaluation of meat products including use of natural preservatives and functional additives including use of natural antimicrobial. Worked on analysis of various biochemical compounds, sensory evaluation, texture profile analysis and lipid oxidation products in meat products.
