Research summary
AI-generated

Chi-Tang Ho's research focuses on food chemistry, particularly the chemical composition, processing, and health-related effects of plant-based foods such as tea, spices, and other natural products. Work spans identifying bioactive compounds (like polyphenols, flavonoids, and capsaicin-related molecules), studying how food processing and fermentation affect flavor and nutritional properties, and examining how these compounds may influence health conditions such as inflammation, obesity, and liver metabolism in laboratory and animal models. Much of the work combines analytical chemistry techniques with biological testing to connect food composition to potential health benefits.
