Switchable linker based colorimetric detection using gold nanoparticle aggregation
- Overall research objectives is to improve sensitivity and selectivity over targets compared to existing colorimetric detection methods.
- Induce gold nanoparticle aggregations using a novel material called “switchable linker” resulting precipitations of gold aggregates which makes it possible to distinguish target concentrations with naked eyes.
- Various pathogens in real food matrix, major peanut allergen, Ara h1 were successfully detected with very low detection limit.

Pickering emulsions stabilized by food-derived solid particles
- The purpose of this research is replacing conventional chemical emulsifiers with food-derived particles as Pickering stabilizer and physicochemical properties of the particles and Pickering emulsion.
- The digestion patterns of the Pickering emulsions stabilized by the particles during the in vitro gastrointestinal digestion phases are also studied.
