A new event is scheduled for METROFOOD-IT this coming September. As part of the international conference ICIAP 2025 (23rd International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing), which will take place in Rome from September 15 to 19, 2025, the research infrastructure will host a workshop entitled:
ImagEAT: Imaging, AI, VR and AR in Food Research to Enhancing Safety, Quality, and Consumer Insights.
The University of Parma has achieved another important scientific result within the METROFOOD-IT project: a recent article was published in the journal Food Chemistry regarding the use of the electronic nose (e-nose) as a screening technique for detecting fungal contamination in wheat by Claviceps purpurea, the fungus responsible for the production of Ergot Alkaloid (EA) toxins.
