Projects
Quality Assurance and Forensic Studies on Food Products and Spices using Nuclear Analytical Techniqu(RCD, BARC, DAE, Mumbai)
Food forensic specify the possibility of verification of authenticity of the food products by determination of trace elements or molecular ionic fragments or harmful chemical compounds. With growing population and increasing cost, many unscrupulous ingredients are being added in various food products. Important and common food items which are subjected to fraud are spices, vegetables, fruits, beverages and wines, cooking oil, meat, fish etc. Neutron activation analysis is one of the most poweby (UGC-DAE-CSR)
