Dr. Maria Hoppe

Fraunhofer-Institut für Verfahrenstechnik und Verpackung IVV, Abteilung Produktsicherheit und -analytik

Maria Hoppe, born in 1987, studied chemistry from 2007 to 2013 at the Free University of Berlin and the University of Amsterdam. From 2013 to 2018 she was a PhD student at the Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV in the department Product Safety and Analytics. In 2018, she successfully completed her doctoral thesis “Oligomers in polyester-type food contact polymers: Identification and migration studies”, supervised by Professor Pim de Voogt, University of Amsterdam. Since then, Dr. Hoppe has been a research associate at the Fraunhofer IVV, where she continues her research.

Focus

The focus of Dr. Hoppe’s research is the identification and migration of substances in food, in particular of NIAS (non-intentionally added substances).

Methods

  • LC/HRMS
    (liquid chromatography/gas chromatography high resolution mass spectrometry)
  • HPLC/UV
    (high performance liquid chromatography/ultraviolet detection)
  • APGC
    (atmospheric pressure gas chromatography)

    Vegetable proteins replace petroleum-based raw materials

    Just like cellulose, lignin and fats, proteins are renewable raw materials. Their potential for the chemical industry remains largely untapped. Research teams at the Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV are collaborating with partners to change all this, the idea b ... more

    Pocket-size food scanner

    According to a study by the environmental organization WWF Germany, ten million metric tons of food are thrown in the garbage every year in Germany despite still being edible. A mobile food scanner will allow consumers and supermarket operators in the future to test whether food items have ... more

    Is there something up with stinky inflatable pool toys?

    Inflatable toys and swimming aids, like bathing rings and arm bands, often have a distinctive smell which could indicate that they contain a range of potentially hazardous substances. Some of these compounds, which include carbonyl compounds, cyclohexanone, phenol and isophorone, might be c ... more

    Food ingredients from sunflowers

    Sunflowers are grown primarily to produce vegetable oil. What remains after producing sunflower oil is a press cake which, despite its high nutritional value, is generally used only as animal feed. An innovative development process as part of the “SmartProSun” project has aimed to increase ... more

    Protein-rich meat alternatives made from fungi

    Protein-rich “mycoprotein” is a sustainable and biological food ingredient obtained by targeted fermentation of a starter culture. Particularly its intrinsic fiber structure makes it worth investigating whether mycoprotein is suitable for producing low-processed alternatives to meat. more

    Oligomers in polyester-based food packaging

    For several decades, food packaging has made handling food easier and helped to maintain its quality. Plastic packaging possesses the advantage that it is light and flexible, with a vast variety of polymer modifications allowing a wide range of usages. more
