Biography

D. Sc. Ye Tian is working as a Post-Doc researcher in Food Chemistry and Food Development unit, Department of Biochemistry, University of Turku. He has years’ experience on gas chromatography, liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. His expertise includes: a) Characterization of phenolic compounds, amino acids, sugars, organic acids, and glucosinolates; b) In vitro bioactivities of phenolics against free radical-derived oxidation and foodborne pathogens; c) Structure modification on phenolics. The current work of D. Sc. Ye Tian focuses mainly on 1) Utilization of bio-wastes (barely spent gains, oathulls, and rapeseed meals) from food industry, and 2) Development of meat preservatives usingstructurally-designed phenolic compounds.
