Researchers

Dr Miljana Đorđević

RESEARCH AREA: Isolation, characterization and application of nutraceuticals. As a researcher in the food science field she is oriented towards isolation and characterization of new functional ingredients from plants and by-products of the food industry, particularly sugar industry by-products (leaves, pulp, and molasses), as well as the formulation of functional food products with improved nutritional value. Furthermore, enhancement of the sugar production process is another field of interest. She is skilled to perform analysis determining the quality parameters of products, intermediate products and by-products of the sugar industry, and perform and analyse infrared spectroscopic (FTIR) measurements for the evaluation of structural changes in food ingredients and products as well as analysis of their proximate composition and techno-functional properties.

M.Sc Bojana Radić

RESEARCH AREA: Food and feed safety. Food and feed safety, with a focus on chemical contaminants such as mycotoxins: development, optimization, and validation of different analytical methods (HPLC-DAD/FLD/MS-MS; ELISA); mycotoxin occurrence in relation to weather conditions; reduction measures. Experience as a lead analyst for ELISA technique and liquid chromatography (DAD/FLD/ELSD) within the accredited Laboratory for Technology, Quality and Food Safety (FINSLab).

M.Sc Branislava Đermanović

RESEARCH AREA: Isolation, characterization and application of nutraceuticals. PhD student at the Faculty of Technology, University of Novi Sad. The field of her research is oilseeds, vegetable oils and fat processing technology. The topic of her doctoral dissertation is based on the characterization of rapeseed oil, the valorisation of secondary products of the oil industry in order to obtain high-value components and the creation of new functional products.
