    Research topics

    The research activity is focused on the chemical characterization of foods through the analysis of the volatile fraction using advanced analytical approaches. The research strategy was directed towards the integration between the 4 fundamental phases of the analytical process which include sample preparation, component separation by mono- and bi-dimensional chromatography, identification / quantification by mass spectrometry, the processing of chromatographic data (data processing) and processing of results (data elaboration) using chemometric techniques. This last phase is a research area that aims to integrate the aspects of methodological and instrumental development in order to maximize the extraction of information functional to the chemical study of highly complex foods.

    The research topics on which the studies were oriented include: (a) the chemical characterization and the diagnostic importance of the volatile fraction of high quality foods (coffee, cocoa, hazelnuts, rice and extra-virgin olive oil); (b) process characterization (technological markers and process-on-line monitoring) and sensory quality definition through chemical markers by several approaches typical of OMICS disciplines - Foodomics, Flavoromics and Sensomics (i.e., multidimensional analytical techniques: GC-MS and ES-GC-MS, GCxGC-MS, LC-MS) on different food matrices (coffee, cocoa, hazelnuts, extra-virgin olive oil, rice);(c) the development of analytical strategies to monitor the process of roasting coffee, hazelnuts and cocoa, using chemical indexes, and in-line measurement approaches; (d) the development of sample preparation approaches based on solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and / or the use of miniaturized devices (stir-bar sorptive extraction - SBSE, headspace sorptive extraction - HSSE, solid -phase dynamic extraction - SPDE etc ..) and can be integrated into analysis platforms; (e) the study of the interaction between dietary components and metabolism through metabolic profiling approaches (metabolite profiling) of biological fluids (urine and plasma) from healthy volunteers and / or animal models of dietary intervention.
