Mine Ozcelik, born in 1984, graduated with Bachelor’s and Master’s of Engineering degrees in Chemical Engineering from Ankara University, Turkey in 2008 and 2012, respectively. She started working in the food industry as an R&D and laboratory head in September 2008 in Ankara, where she oversaw the establishment of the company’s first R&D and coordinated its operations. She managed several R&D projects. She focused her scholarly research on pasta production (including microwave drying technology) and the process for a manufacturing method that can be used for the production of stuffed pasta. After a position as project expert on joint venture company establishment, she started her PhD studies at the Chair of Food and Bioprocess Engineering at the Technical University of Munich under the supervision of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ulrich Kulozik in August 2016, working on microwave drying technology. Since submitting her PhD dissertation in November 2019 she has been working at the chair as a research associate.
Focus
Mine Ozcelik conducts research in the field of drying technology, focusing on microwave drying. Her interests include fruit foams, hydrocolloids as well as the nutritional, textural and sensorial quality of food.
The food trend towards healthy snacks is continuing. Snacks made from freeze-dried fruit meet consumer expectations of modern and high-quality food. However, freeze drying of whole fruits (…)
Molecular monitoring of RNA regulation
The better we understand cellular processes such as RNA regulation, the better molecular therapies can be developed. Until now, it has been especially difficult to track the regulation of non-coding RNA, which is RNA that is not further converted into proteins. A research team from the Tech ... more
Synthetic peptides may suppress formation of harmful deposits
In Alzheimer's disease, the degeneration of brain cells is linked to formation of toxic protein aggregates and deposits known as amyloid plaques. Similar processes play an important role also in type 2 diabetes. A research team under the lead of the Technical University of Munich has now de ... more
First electric nanomotor made from DNA material
A research team led by the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has succeeded for the first time in producing a molecular electric motor using the DNA origami method. The tiny machine made of genetic material self-assembles and converts electrical energy into kinetic energy. The new nanomot ... more
Vital wheat gluten, a protein with potential
For almost every one of the 17 goals that the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development sets out, food and its value chain plays an important role [1]. With this agenda, the United Nations has created a global framework for action that addresses all social players. more
Biobased raw material flows of the future
Anthropogenic climate change and the rising world population, in combination with increasing urbanization, poses global challenges to our societies that can only be solved by technological advancement. The direct biotechnological use of greenhouse gases, including residual biomass flows fro ... more
Taste and aroma boost in the mouth
The food trend towards healthy snacks is continuing. Snacks made from freeze-dried fruit meet consumer expectations of modern and high-quality food. However, freeze drying of whole fruits requires long drying times and substantially reduces sensorial quality, which is unappealing to consumers. more
