Es uno de los siete proyectos de la Escuela de Ingeniería UC que se adjudicó un FONDEF este año. Presentado como un proyecto de interés público, “Minimización de la formación de acrilamida en alimentos de consumo masivo en Chile” pretende determinar el nivel de este compuesto en los alimentos y así saber cuán expuestos están los chilenos. A partir de esto, se podrán desarrollar técnicas para disminuir la formación de acrilamida en los productos.
