Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Son Radu"
- Son Radu's recent research predominantly focuses on the exploration and enhancement of antimicrobial properties in lactic acid bacteria (LAB) through advanced genetic modification techniques like CRISPR/Cas9, as well as investigating the prevalence and resistance of pathogens in food sources, including non-typhoidal Salmonella from urban markets.
- His work includes notable contributions to understanding the microbial biodiversity in Malaysian fermented foods, and the identification of bioactive compounds that can aid in nutritional improvements, particularly in addressing malnutrition and health concerns.
- Additionally, Radu's studies address food safety impacts by evaluating sanitization methods for fresh produce, and examining the biogeochemical roles of microbial communities in tropical peat ecosystems, alongside the modeling of conditions affecting aflatoxin production in food products, demonstrating a holistic approach to food microbiology and safety.
