The CTNS studies the physical and chemical characterization of food.

These studies enable us to understand the nutritional content of micro- and macronutrients and their physical and chemical parameters, and to provide valuable information about the quality and the nutritional profile of food.

They include:

• Determination of the composition and quantification of the protein fractions
• Determination of the composition and quantification of the lipid fraction
• Analysis and determination of the sugar, fibre and vitamin content
• Analysis and determination of substances and/or ingredients
• Determination of caloric content
• Study of the traceability of food components
