Novel Processing approaches for the development of food products Low in fAt, Salt and sUgar (PLeASURe)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
More than 60% of all reported diseases in modern industrial countries are said to have their origin from malnutrition (low vitamin intake, high caloric food (fat and sugar)).

Sustainable technologies for the production of biodegradable materials based on natural chitin-nanofibrils derived by waste of fish industry, to produce food grade packaging (N-CHITOPACK)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2014,
The food sector (including beverage industry) accounts for approximately two thirds of global packaging and about 50% of these packages are made of plastics. Plastic food packaging materials currently in use are generally non-biodegradable causing ecological imbalance and aesthetic deterioration of nature. At the same time being a petro-chemical based product, plastics rely on a depleting and incr ...
