Using cryo-SEM to perfect your food product


Hummus

This time its the turn of the wider food industry to see what electron microscopy can do for your business at our next free Industrial Solutions event, funded by ERDF, on Wednesday 12 November 2014 (e.g. improve quality, test new ingredients, develop new products).

As well as ice cream, we will also be looking at other food products; hummus, cheese, bread, pastry, to name but a few.





We have speakers from the University giving practical examples of how food companies have used electron microscopy to benefit their business and how they have successfully applied for grant funding through GAIN to develop their company's capacity.  Technical experts from the Plymouth Electron Microscopy Centre (PEMC) and also Mike Wombwell from Quorum Technologies Ltd (equipment supplier) will also be on hand to explore how your company can use electron microscopy to improve your products.

There will also be the opportunity to look around the University's food development lab with Dr Victor Kuri, a leading food scientist, to gain an insight into the sort of product development work he has carried out with companies over the last few years, including Roddas Cream and Kerry Ingredients (UK) Ltd.
