The main focus of my research is the use of supercritical fluid (SCF) technology to process bioactive compounds: 1 – extraction and fractionation from non-edible biomass 2- micronization of pharmaceutical ingredients I have expertise in SCF extraction and fractionation for downstream processing of microalgae biomass, and for valorization of wastes/by-products from agro-food industry. My scientific interest include the use of SCFs for the production of micro and nanoparticles of pharmaceutical ingredients, biopharmaceuticals and bioactive compounds.
