Kashish Bajaj

About

My research interests focus on managing Oxidative stress in postharvest fruits, developing novel postharvest technologies, shelf-life extension, Food nutrition, food security, fruit surface morphology studies, and characterization of plant-based edible coatings and extracts. Well-versed in research-oriented abilities and fruit quality analysis. Efficient in biochemical analysis, Antioxidant enzyme activity, Oxidative stress in postharvest fruits, ATR-FTIR, statistical analysis and data interpretation, and Postharvest handling of fresh horticulture produce.
