Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Faculdade de Zootecnia e Engenharia de Alimentos (FZEA) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
She holds a degree in Food Engineering from Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (UNESP, 1994) and a master's and PhD in Food Engineering from Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP, 1997 and 2002, respectively). From 2008 to 2010, she was a visiting professor at the Institute de Chimie Organique et Analytique, Université d'Orléans (France), and returned as a guest researcher in 2023. She is currently a full professor at the Faculty of Animal Science and Food Engineering, University of São Paulo, where she has served as Head of the Department of Food Engineering, Coordinator of the Committee for Culture and University Extension, and Coordinator of the Postgraduate Program in Food Engineering. She is currently Vice President of the USP Interunit Postgraduate Committee for Integrated Food Systems (PPG SIA). She supervises research within the same program and has been a member of the International Master's Program in Analytical Chemistry for Drugs and Natural Products at the UFR des Sciences Pharmaceutiques, Université de Bordeaux, since 2016. She is a reviewer for several scientific journals known for their rigorous editorial policies in her field. Her research focuses on Food Science and Technology, specifically in Food Engineering processes, with an emphasis on systems that use supercritical carbon dioxide and pressurized liquid extraction. Her main work involves optimizing green processes to obtain natural extracts from plant (fruits and vegetables) and animal (fish and insect) sources. Additionally, she conducts research in chromatographic analysis, sensory analysis, and the processing of ice cream. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The increase in food production is related to population growth, so there is a search for new food sources, one of them, entomophagy (eating insects). Insects have high concentrations of compounds with nutritional properties, are sources of essential fatty acids, minerals, vitamins, and also have bioactive compounds, such as antioxidants and phenolic compounds. In view of this, the intere…
This research project aims to construct an accelerated liquid extraction equipment in a pilot scale. The Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE) process is a new technique developed in the 1990s to prepare analytical samples, for example to more efficiently extract herbicide residues in soil and food. More recently, it has been used in the study of the composition of extracts from plant and …

Rice bran is a by-product of rice processing. It is rich in oil but has the disadvantage of being rich in enzymes that oxidize lipids. But, in this proposal, rice bran that is stable in terms of lipid oxidation will be used because it was pre-treated. This raw material will be kindly provided by Tech Bran, a specialist in rice bran stabilization. The objectives of the present project are …
The population's concern about health, food and weight maintenance has grown gradually, with this the quality of products and what is consumed has attracted attention. Consumers are looking for alternatives, such as products that, in addition to food, may offer some health benefit, known as functional. The consumption of frozen desserts has increased and with this, an opportunity has been…
In this work, the process of obtaining extracts of white curcuma using supercritical CO2 will be studied. The experiments will be performed using optimized conditions according to preliminary studies of extractions with supercritical CO2 without or with cosolvent (ethanol) previously studied for yellow curcuma (Curcuma longa). Under these conditions, it is desired to obtain extracts with …
