OverviewAI-generated summary
Kaushik Luthra's research focuses on the development and characterization of novel food materials, particularly those derived from soybeans, and their application in areas such as food packaging and 3D printing. His work investigates the impact of natural extracts, like grape seed and green tea polyphenols, on the physicochemical properties of 3D-printed edible soy protein films, aiming to enhance their functionality and performance. Luthra also studies the physical and textural attributes of these functional films. In parallel, his research extends to agricultural engineering, examining the sustainability of on-farm grain drying systems, including assessments of their energy consumption and carbon footprint. He has also investigated quality characteristics of processed rice, such as instant rice produced via microwave-assisted hot air drying, and explored methods to mitigate aflatoxin contamination in stored rice. Luthra's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 8, with 61 total publications and 269 citations. He collaborates extensively with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Griffiths G. Atungulu, Samuel O. Olaoni, and Evans Ameyaw Owusu.
