Major Responsibilities/Research Interests 

Areas of interest include the use of lactic acid bacteria as biopreservatives in food systems, microbial ecology and its effects on sensory quality of foods, and detection of pathogens. Currently, the use of lactic acid bacteria and their bacteriocins as biopreservatives for controlling the growth of foodborne pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes in packaged food is being investigated. Teaching responsibilities include food microbiology, food safety and food fermentation.
