Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Food science
  • Enzyme

Her main research concerns Antioxidant, Food science, Botany, Biochemistry and Antimicrobial. Her Antioxidant study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Phenols, Traditional medicine, Decoction and Chromatography. Her Food science study incorporates themes from DPPH, TBARS, Nutrient and Polyunsaturated fatty acid.

Isabel C.F.R. Ferreira regularly ties together related areas like Horticulture in her Botany studies. Her research combines Mushroom and Biochemistry. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Gram-negative bacteria and Bacillus cereus.

Her most cited work include:

  • A review on antioxidants, prooxidants and related controversy: natural and synthetic compounds, screening and analysis methodologies and future perspectives. (916 citations)
  • Free-radical scavenging capacity and reducing power of wild edible mushrooms from northeast Portugal : individual cap and stipe activity (495 citations)
  • Total phenols, ascorbic acid, β-carotene and lycopene in Portuguese wild edible mushrooms and their antioxidant activities (422 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Food science, Antioxidant, Botany, Antimicrobial and Traditional medicine. Her work deals with themes such as Composition, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Chemical composition, which intersect with Food science. Her Antioxidant study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Biochemistry.

Botany and Horticulture are frequently intertwined in her study. Antimicrobial is a subfield of Microbiology that Isabel C.F.R. Ferreira investigates. Her study in Medicinal plants and Phytochemical is carried out as part of her studies in Traditional medicine.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Food science (38.48%)
  • Antioxidant (34.84%)
  • Botany (17.85%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2022)?

  • Food science (38.48%)
  • Antioxidant (34.84%)
  • Antimicrobial (15.26%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary areas of study are Food science, Antioxidant, Antimicrobial, Traditional medicine and Extraction. Her Food science study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Polyphenol and Chemical composition. Her study in Antioxidant is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Composition, Palmitic acid and Polyunsaturated fatty acid.

Antimicrobial is frequently linked to Catechin in her study. Her Traditional medicine study combines topics in areas such as Cytotoxicity and Rosmarinic acid. The concepts of her Extraction study are interwoven with issues in Yield, Ethanol, Solvent and Response surface methodology.

Between 2019 and 2022, her most popular works were:

  • Jabuticaba residues (Myrciaria jaboticaba (Vell.) Berg) are rich sources of valuable compounds with bioactive properties. (30 citations)
  • Anthocyanin-rich extract of jabuticaba epicarp as a natural colorant: Optimization of heat- and ultrasound-assisted extractions and application in a bakery product (27 citations)
  • Grown to be Blue-Antioxidant Properties and Health Effects of Colored Vegetables. Part II: Leafy, Fruit, and Other Vegetables. (24 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Food science

Her primary areas of investigation include Food science, Antioxidant, Antimicrobial, Traditional medicine and Horticulture. In her works, she conducts interdisciplinary research on Food science and Health benefits. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cultivar, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Chemical composition in addition to Antioxidant.

Isabel C.F.R. Ferreira combines subjects such as Astringent, Antibacterial activity, Quercetin and Anti proliferative with her study of Antimicrobial. Isabel C.F.R. Ferreira interconnects Mode of action, Rosmarinic acid and Cytotoxicity in the investigation of issues within Traditional medicine. Her Horticulture research incorporates elements of Fertilizer, Crop, Manure and Fatty acid.
