Funded Activity Summary

Disposable microfluidic diagnostics for new generation foods, beverages and oral care products. The outcomes of this project will lead to the establishment of a new paradigm in designing foods, beverages and oral care products that have tailored health and vitality benefits (e.g. reduced levels of fat, sugar and salt). In addition, these foods will contain beneficial additives (e.g. anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients) targeted to specific consumer groups according to their lifestyle, age, medical condition or requirement for nutritional/nourishment efficacy, thereby contributing to healthy ageing. It is foreseen that this novel approach to designing foods will be extended to products intended for consumers whose sensory perception is compromised by existing medical therapeutic practices (such as radiation therapy).
