OverviewAI-generated summary
Nikitha Modupalli's research focuses on food science, with an emphasis on extraction technologies and the characterization of plant-based products. She has investigated pulsed ultrasound-assisted extraction of protein from bitter melon seeds and the impact of novel processing technologies on rice bran oil extraction and quality. Modupalli has also explored non-destructive methods for quality and safety monitoring in spices and the use of edible coatings for shelf-life enhancement of tomatoes. Her work includes the physicochemical, functional, thermal, and phytochemical characterization of rice cultivars and refined rice bran wax. She has also studied the effects of atmospheric cold plasma on plant traits and insect pests in rice, aiming to improve yield and functional properties of rice bran protein.
Modupalli's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 11, with 39 total publications and 463 total citations. She has a history of collaboration with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Md Mahfuzur Rahman (15 shared publications), Saydul Md Safwa (3 shared publications), Scott Lafontaine (2 shared publications), and Deepak Dilip (2 shared publications).
