Wir laden Sie herzlich ein zum Vortrag unseres Gastes, Cristian Botta, PhD researcher, Department of Agricultural, Forest and Food Sciences, University of Torino, Italy. Titel: The use of omics in food transformation processes and environments: from the current observational studies to the future practical applications am 10. Oktober 2023, um 14 st. Uhr im Raum F119, Sand 6. Abstract: Metataxonomic, metagenomic and transcriptomic are nowadays extensively used in medical microbiology to obtain a holistic view of the patient's identity and further highlight biomarkers associated to human pathologies and diseases. Although for microbiologists they represent well-established techniques, in food science and technology their use is still marginal and their potentialities are far from being fully understood, both from academia and industry. In this talk examples of omics applications in food industries and processes will be shown and discussed, with emphasis on advantages, limitations and pitfalls encountered in the last five years of applied research
