Que-Anh Truong-Le's research focuses on developing advanced methods for probiotic delivery, particularly utilizing 3D food printing techniques. Her work investigates the creation of pH-sensitive gel systems, such as alginate-pectin hydrogels, designed to enhance the viability and targeted release of beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium bifidum. Recent publications explore the generation of functional aerogels from these biopolymers and the application of coaxial 3D food printing for controlled release of compounds like methylene blue.
Her research also examines the transition from conventional probiotic delivery approaches to novel 3D food printing methods. Truong-Le's scholarship includes studies on the rheological properties and pH responsiveness of these hydrogel systems, aiming to improve the efficacy of probiotic encapsulation. She has published six papers and has an h-index of 2 with 19 citations. Collaborators include Ali Ubeyitogullari and Sun‐Ok Lee from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
