Dr Anh Phan
Dr Anh Phan is a Food Scientist with experience in Food Biochemistry and Food analytic techniques using state-of-the art LC-MSMS. PhD Graduate from the University of Queensland in 2016 worked on the interactions between polyphenols and dietary fibres. Currently, Dr Anh Phan is an early research career appointed by the ARC Training Centre for Uniquely Australian Foods at QAAFI’s Centre for Nutrition and Food Science (CNAFS). Her current research focuses on nutritional values and health related benefits of Australian native foods
Projects Dr Anh Phan is involved with:
Nutritional quality and functionality of selected Australian native herbs
Read moreNative herbs and spices will identify sensory and nutritional properties and will particularly focus on toxicological risks associated with bush tomato, salt bush, gulbarn and jilungin. The project target will be to identify sufficiently promising..
