RESEARCH OVERVIEW

The study of the spectrophotometric techniques based on the measurement of light absorption (UV/Vis/IR) or emission (fluorescence and Raman scattering) aims at designing and calibrating optical sensors for the fast chemical analysis and the on-line (immediate, non-destructive) quality control of food at the levels of production, transformation and distribution
