Protein Food Processing
Novel protein extraction technologies (deep eutectic solvents, reverse micelles), non-thermal processing technologies (col plasma, pulsed electric field, high pressure) with the objective of developing functionally superior, less allergenic protein ingredients from pulse, other crops, byproducts and alternate protein sources
Packaging
Developing sustainable packaging materials using biopolymers, mainly using byproduct proteins, polysaccharides and lignocellulosic materials
Consumer Acceptability
protein ingredients and their impact on food systems: how it will impart the food systems and consumer acceptability
Assessment of the Safety and Nutritional Value of Protein Foods
How different food protein processing will impact the digestibility, amino acid bioavailability and nutritional qualities
Other
working on alternate proteins such as algae and fungi protein on developing functionally enhanced products. Working with a company to develop a NSERC Alliance grant at the moment. Also work on using proteins for industrial applications such as adhesives, biomaterials etc

HPLC, wet chemistry laboratory, pulse processing, highly qualified personnel
Other
The Pulse Research Program at Canadian Grain Commission (CGC) investigates how the physical and chemical components of pulses affect the quality of pulses and the final products made from them. We study how grading, environmental, and genetic factors determine pulse quality and end-use functionality. We research methods for measuring and assessing pulse end-use quality and functionality. We also conduct the annual pulse and food-type soybean quality analysis for the CGC’s Harvest Sample Program and take part in cargo monitoring to support the marketability of Canadian pulses.
