We are excited to celebrate Rianat Lukman for successfully defending her thesis, “Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis of Proteins in Milk.”
About Her Research:
Rianat’s work focuses on the critical role of milk proteins in nutrition and the dairy industry, emphasizing the need for rapid, precise methods to quantify key whey proteins like β-lactoglobulin, α-lactalbumin, and lactoferrin. Using advanced spectroscopy techniques—Fourier transform mid-infrared (MIR) and near-infrared (NIR)—Rianat provided data that supported the developed innovative model to accurately measure these proteins.
Why It Matters:
Her research offers significant advancements for industrial dairy processes by simplifying protein analysis, enhancing efficiency, and unlocking new possibilities for using whey proteins in functional foods. This work bridges cutting-edge technology with practical dairy applications, paving the way for improvements in nutrition, functionality, and sustainability in the dairy industry.
Join us in congratulating Rianat on her exceptional achievement and contribution to dairy science!
