Project: "Research on the correlation between the content of biologically active substances from agri-food products and the antioxidant capacity as a synergic effect of food matrix"

Program Nucleu – „Research on the identification and use of the bioactive compounds that can improve the nutritional value of food and the factors that can affect food integrity "– acronym NUTRISAN

Contract no. 22 N /2016

Contracting authority: Ministry of Research and Innovation

Project completion period: 2016-2017

Budget: 760,000 lei

The objective of the project: Identification, valorisation and quantification of bioactive compounds that may increase the nutritional value of food products and  food supplements

Specific objectives:

  • Studies on the characterization of the antioxidant properties for bioactive compounds present in different food matrices
  • Experimental research on optimal methods of the extraction of bioactive compounds from food matrices and the determination of total antioxidant capacity
  • Experimental research on the determination of individual bioactive compounds/classes of compounds in various agri-food products
  • Experimental research establishing the correlation between the amount of  bioactive compounds and the total antioxidant capacity of the food matrix
