Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Amparo Querol"
- Amparo Querol's recent research focuses on the taxonomy and safety of yeast species, particularly in relation to food production, with a significant emphasis on genomic analysis and metabolic profiles during fermentation processes.
- Her studies include evaluating the Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) as a method for yeast species identification, assessing the fermentation metabolites of Saccharomyces hybrids, and investigating the antifungal properties of volatile compounds produced by brewer's yeasts.
- Additionally, Querol's work contributes to the Qualified Presumption of Safety (QPS) framework, ensuring the safety of microbiological agents in food and feed by regularly updating the suitability of taxonomic units based on thorough assessments of safety and taxonomic identity.
