Ximena Yépez studies cold plasma technology, a method that uses ionized gas to disinfect, modify, or process foods without heat. Her work applies this technology to food safety and quality problems, including disinfecting produce and packaging, treating oils to remove trans fats, and controlling spoilage or microbial contamination in fruits, seafood, and grains. This research is relevant to students interested in food engineering, food safety, and non-thermal food processing methods.
