Research Area:
Dr. Zeeces research interest is focused on the development of proteomic applications for both conventional and emerging technologies (microarrays). Microarrays have been developed for the quantitative profiling proteins of interest in animal and plant materials. Dr. Zeece has also initiated new research activity on the use of high hydrostatic pressure treatment, a novel processing technology that has been shown to induce desirable changes in food systems.
