Rose Daphnee Tchonkouang obtained a BSc in Biotechnology at the Pearson Institute of Higher Education in South Africa and a MSc in Food Technology at the Universidade do Algarve). She is currently a research fellow in the project 'Functionalized Tomato Products' in which health-enhancing tomato-based products are developed and preserved using emergent processing technologies and a PhD student in Biotechnological sciences (specialization: Food Biotechnology) at the Universidade do Algarve. She studies the stability of lycopene and inactivation of alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris spores in thermal and UV-C pasteurized tomato juice and tomato sauce produced with high-lycopene tomatoes. She is open to collaborations to acquire new knowledge and contribute to the body of knowledge produced by science.

2023/11/09 - 2023/11/10 The general assembly of the international FunTomP project was held from the 9th to the 10th of November 2023. The aim was to discuss the advancements of the project work packages and the future work that needs to be performed. I presented the recent findings of the work on the 'Formulation Design of Tomato Juice' by discussing the various steps involved in conducting a D-optimal mixture design to obtain a formulation using various mixture components (i.e. ingredients) taking into account the sensory acceptability of the developed products

2022/06/30 - 2022/07/02 The board meeting for the Functionalized Tomato Products (FunTomP) project funded under the Partnership for Research and Innovation in the Mediterranean Area (PRIMA) was held at Ege University in Turkey. The project includes a consortium of 16 partners from 8 countries (Turkey, Lebanon, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Croatia, Tunisia, and Greece). Presentations and discussions were held on reevaluating traditional Mediterranean foods by utilizing emergent processing technologies such as microwave technology, Ultraviolet light, high-pressure processing.
