Research Focus The Food Chemistry research group focuses on the molecular determinants of food bioactivity and functionality. Foods are complex systems, which are composed of thousands of different components. In order to understand how the food's molecular composition modulates its (bio-)function, comprehensive profiling methods are applied based on cutting-edige mass spectrometry methods and bioinformatics tools.
