The Nutraceutical deals with the design and characterization of foods aimed at promoting the prevention of chronic diseases with high social impact, to improve the quality of life of citizens and optimize public spending.
Functional foods, indeed, are foods in common use enriched with natural components generally absent or present in low concentrations in other foods that have a positive effect on particular body functions.
Through clinical trials and laboratory tests, Biotecnomed supports companies in the identification of biologically active food components and characterization of new functional food from natural products.
Biotecnomed deals with:
- Identification of biologically active food components potentially capable of improving the physical and mental well-being and reduce the risk of serious diseases
- Development of functional foods or nutraceuticals from natural or industrial products, effective and safe for health, through instrumentation and high technical-scientific level skills
- Development of new biotechnological methods for the rapid identification of biologically active molecules extracted from foods
