Research Focus:
S M Kamrul Hasan’s research primarily focuses on the development and application of advanced edible coatings, specifically nanoemulsions, to preserve the quality of fresh-cut fruits and vegetables. His work explores innovative solutions to enhance storability and bioactive properties of food products, as seen in formulations like yogurt with banana peel extracts. Hasan also delves into the potential of fruit by-products as natural sources of antioxidants and α-glucosidase inhibitors. With a strong emphasis on postharvest quality improvement, his investigations extend to areas such as the effects of edible coatings enriched with black cumin extract on guava fruit. Hasan’s diverse contributions encompass reaction calorimetry studies on food and ascorbic acid’s scavenging properties, demonstrating a comprehensive research focus on food science and technology.
