OverviewAI-generated summary
Nikitha Modupalli's research focuses on the extraction and characterization of valuable components from agricultural byproducts, particularly rice bran and bitter melon seeds. Her work investigates the application of novel processing technologies, including pulsed ultrasound and atmospheric cold plasma, to enhance the yield and functional properties of plant-based proteins and oils. Modupalli has published on the kinetic aspects of protein extraction and the physicochemical changes in rice bran oil during processing, such as degumming. Her research also explores the impact of plasma treatments on plant traits and pest control, specifically in rice cultivation. Modupalli collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Md Mahfuzur Rahman, and has an h-index of 11 with 37 publications.
