Dr. S. Dutta Gupta, a Former Professor of Department of Agricultural and Food Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, has worked for more than 3 decades in the area of Plant Developmental Biology. He is a pioneer in the application of Plant image analysis for non-invasive real time estimation of chlorophyll content, photosynthetic ability and early detection of wilting following artificial intelligence, PRI and thermal imaging. He has been able to bring engineering-plant tissue culture link to a new dimension of understanding. He has also contributed significantly to the application of light-emitting diodes in regulating plant morphogenesis and the biosynthesis of metal nanoparticle. Dr. Dutta Gupta has received fellowships/grants from various agencies and governments such as United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Lockheed Martin, the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), the Indian National Science Academy (INSA), the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Czech Academy of Sciences and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS). He has published more than 100 scientific articles and edited 5 books published by Springer and CRC Press and also featured in the Stanford University ranking of top 2 per cent scientists globally during 2021-22 in the category Plant Biology.

I received a BSc in enology and a Ph.D. in microbiology from the University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro (UTAD). I am an Assistant Professor at UTAD and a Chemistry Research Centre – Vila Real member. I have Published 80 articles in international scientific journals, seven technical papers, 12 book chapters, and 85 publications in conference proceedings. Supervised Ph.D. and master's thesis besides having supervised works of completion for Bach. / Degree in the field of Biological Sciences. I received two awards. I am currently involved in three research projects, and my lines of research are linked with studies on volatile acidity bio-reduction in wines, wine microbiology, and food and wine sensory evaluation. In my professional activities, I have interacted with more than 110 researchers in co-authorships of scientific papers. I am an active reviewer for Food Research International, Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Food Chemistry International, Journal of Gastronomy and Food Science, and MDPI Journals (Foods, Fermentation, Beverages, Molecules, International Journal of Molecular Sciences and Materials); Academic Editor of Asian Research Journal of Agriculture, International Journal of Environment and Climate Change, and the Insights in Organic & Inorganic Chemistry Journal and Editorial Board Member of Journal of Agriculture and Crops and Fermentation (MDPI)

 Dietetics applied to bariatric surgery. Clinical impact of bariatric surgery on patient’s body composition (fat mass and fat-free mass) and Resting Metabolic Rate. Pre- and post-operative treatment of micronutrient deficiencies in patients that underwent bariatric surgery

Research Interest: Functional ingredients in Food Phytochemistry, such as the polyphenol, anthocyanin, lycopene, and resveratrol, has presented the antioxidant and many other biologic activities. The enrichment, functionality and application of the anthocyanin and lycopene have been our focus for more than twenty years.New technologies in Food. Application of new technologies will give a solution for current problem in food. We have focus on the ultra high pressure treatment in the pork and vegetable. The quality and shelf life of the product were changed. The proper parameter of the high pressure treatment will be a key to enhance the quality of the food. Energy saving technology in food processing. Drying is a traditional technology for a long time. Energy saving and better quality are the two main melodies in the drying technology. The combination of heat pump and some other technology will give a way for the better efficiency and better quality of products.

Research Interest: Separation & Purification and Quality Control of Food Science New Functional Materials for Food and Pharmaceutical Analysis.

Research Interest: Development of food authenticity tools based on HPLC-MS/MS, fate of pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, poly chlorobiphenyls and heavy metals in crops: transport and degradation processes in soils, and links with their levels in waters and food products, effect of pre- and post-harvest, technological and cooking treatments on food functionality.

Research Interest: Area of Expertise: Chemical Analyses of Fruit and Vegetable, Bioactive compounds, Antioxidant activity, Nutrition of children and Imuno Deficiences, Coeliac Disease and Diet, Herbalplant and Immunesystem.
