Roberta Claro Da Silva

Bio

My current research agenda included lipid science and technology, sensory evaluation and physical properties of foods. In particular, my research is focusing on the development alternatives to replace saturated and trans fats to improve the health of food products. I have substantial research experience in the lipid modification field. I spent considerable research time on understanding chemical aspects of human milk fat, and lipid alternatives as ingredients of substitutes for human milk fat. I worked as a researcher on Lipid Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Sciences College at Sao Paulo University for 12 years to pursuing different approaches o
