DESIGN OF FUNCTIONAL FOODS: UNIVERSITY-INDUSTRY COLLABORATION PROJECTS

摘要

The Bionutest group of the Nutrition and Food Chemistry Area of the University of Valencia (Spain) develops functional foods, and one of its main activities is to study the bioavailability and biological effects of food components. The Hero Group is one of the most important companies in the European food industry, with a presence in over 15 countries, and their products are exported to 5 continents. Due to the geographic dispersion of the Hero Group companies, the Hero Institute for Infant Nutrition has been created to ensure coordination in all the activities of Research, Development and New Technologies within the Hero Group.
