OverviewAI-generated summary

Que-Anh Truong-Le's research focuses on the development and application of advanced food printing technologies for targeted delivery of beneficial compounds. Her work investigates the creation of pH-sensitive hydrogels using alginate and pectin, which are then utilized in 3D food printing. These hydrogel systems are designed to encapsulate and release active ingredients, such as probiotics, in a controlled manner. A recent publication in 2025 explored the encapsulation of Bifidobacterium bifidum into an alginate-pectin gel system, demonstrating enhanced viability and targeted release. Another 2025 publication details the generation of pH-responsive starch and alginate-pectin hydrogels via coaxial 3D food printing, showing their capability for methylene blue release. Truong-Le's research also encompasses a broader review of probiotic delivery methods, transitioning from conventional approaches to the potential of 3D food printing, as highlighted in a 2026 publication. She has 4 total publications and a citation count of 12, with an h-index of 2.
