Autorenporträt

Leonardo Sepúlveda Torre, PhD, is a Researcher at the School of Chemistry at the Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila, Saltillo, Coahuila, México, where he is also a member of the Bioprocesses and Microbial Biochemistry Group. In 2011, he made a research stay at the Institute of Biotechnology and Bioengineering at the University of Minho, Portugal, where he worked as a collaborator at the Center of Biological Engineering, with the link project Biotechnologies for Regional Food Biodiversity in Latin America. He carried out his postdoctoral program at the same institution, writing on "Assisted Extraction by Fermentation of Polyphenols from Agro-industrial Waste." Juan Carlos Contreras-Esquivel, PhD, is a Professor and Head of the Laboratory of Applied Glycobiotechnology at the Food Research Department, School of Chemistry, the University of Coahuila, Mexico. He is involved in teaching undergraduate and graduate students with a special focus in food science and food bioscience. His research interests are mainly applied glycol technology for polysaccharide extraction by using ecofriendly technologies (enzymatic, microwave, pulsed electric field, ultrasonic), and oligosaccharide production by degradative or biosynthetic routes. Ann Rose Abraham, PhD, is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Physics, Sacred Heart College (Autonomous), Kerala, India. She has research experience at various reputed national institutes and has collaborated with international laboratories. Dr. Abraham is a frequent speaker at national and international conferences. She has a good number of publications to her credit in many peer-reviewed high impact journals of international repute. She has authored many book chapters and edited more than 10 books. A. K. Haghi, PhD, has published over 250 academic research-oriented books as well as over 1000 research papers published in various journals and conference proceedings. He has received research grants, consulted for major corporations, and is a frequent speaker to national and international audiences. He was formerly Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Chemoinformatics and Chemical Engineering as well as Polymers Research Journal. Professor Haghi has acted as a journal editorial board member and served as a member of the Canadian Research and Development Center of Sciences and Cultures and the Research Chemistry Centre, Coimbra, Portugal.
