RE: AOAC Research Institute - Urgently Seeking Experts - reply
Dear Ms. Phillips,
I would like to participate as an Expert Reviewer for the development of five protocols
for Malonaldehyde in Oils and Foods, Alkenol in Oils and Foods, Free Fatty Acids in Oils
and Foods, Total Fat Content in Foods, and Lipid Peroxide in Oils in Foods. I have been
an Associate Referee for AOAC on the topic of heated and oxidized oils under Dr. David
Firestone, and have a Ph.D. degree from Rutgers Food Science Department specifically
dealing with lipid chemistry, as well as an earlier undergraduate ACS certified Chemistry
degree from Adelphi University. I am also currently an Adjunct Professor at Rutgers in
the Graduate Program for the Food Science Department, and an Advisor to the
Chairman of the department. I was very active in the past for the Institute of Food
Technology and also the American Oil Chemists’ Society, and won the respective Chang
Awards from both in 2001 for my research in Lipid Chemistry and Food Lipid Chemistry.
I had to take medical leave from my laboratory from 2013 to 2015 for cancer
treatment, continued consulting during treatment, and had returned to work in late
2015.
My independent contract and consulting laboratory (founded 1979) has relocated to:
Libra Technical Center, LLC
200 Centennial Avenue Suite 140
Piscataway, NJ 08854
My personal Cell number is 732-754-5802, and is my preferred contact number for
professional activities.
Attached please find my CV and Bibliography in MS Word format.
Best Regards,
