Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sorour Barekat's research focuses on the valorization of agricultural byproducts and the application of 3D food printing technologies. She investigates the phytochemical composition, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties of plant materials, including walnut green husk and sugar beet fiber. Her work also explores the rheological and functional properties of food ingredients like gum tragacanth and soy protein isolates.

Barekat is actively involved in developing novel food products and processes. This includes optimizing gel formulations and 3D printing parameters to create printable sorghum protein bioinks and enhancing the stability and bioaccessibility of nutrients through coaxial 3D food printing. Her research network includes collaborators such as Ali Ubeyitogullari and Safoura Ahmadzadeh from the University of Arkansas. Barekat has published 17 papers, with a total of 348 citations and an h-index of 8.
