Dr. FEDERICA TURRINI

Federica Turrini is a researcher at the Department of Pharmacy of the University of Genoa. Her research interests are in the fields of eco-compatible extractive technologies with low environmental impact that are in accordance with the principles of green chemistry and green extraction; the application of environmentally friendly technologies assisted via ultrasounds and microwaves for the treatment of different food matrices and agro-fishery production waste; the exploitation and valorization of waste from different food processing chains in order to further the formulation of new potential nutraceutical and/or cosmeceutical ingredients; the chemical–bromatological characterization and assessment of the authenticity of different food matrices via untargeted spectroscopic analytical technologies coupled with chemometric techniques and targeted chromatographic characterization; and the formulation of new enriched and/or functional foods and food dietary supplements via innovative technological treatments. In these fields of study, she is the author of many scientific publications in national and international journals, and she has participated in national and EU research projects.
