Nestlé | Jan 2020 - Feb 2021

Intern

- Support of QA team - Set up of the rules for rapid prototyping room usage and the release procedure of prototypes for Infant Nutrition ensuring GMP - Review of release criteria and release procedure for consumer and clinical trial for Infant Nutrition R&D in alignment with R&D Project Managers, R&D QA and Site QA team - Work on a pilot project for Infant Cereals and Healthy Snacks in close collaboration with external suppliers, corporate functions and R&D

Academy of Sciences | Sep 2019 - Jan 2019

Intern

The research work concerned antioxidant properties of designed products and anti-glycation activity. My tasks were: - preparation of extracts for certain analysis - evaluation of antioxidant properties using TF and TPC tests - evaluation of anti-glycation activity using BSA/MGO and BSA/glucose in vitro tests - preparation of samples for the phenolic acids and flavonoids on HPLC - carboxymethyllysine content determination - samples preparation and HPLC analysis This internship has been provided through the EIT Fellowship programme.

Academy of Sciences | Sep 2018 - Jan 2018

Trainee

During my internship, the research dealt with the physico-chemical properties of the nanoparticles of whey protein isolate (WPI) considered as delivery nanovehicles for polyunsaturated lipids. I got the chance to try the following methods: - preparation of pure and loaded PC liposomes - protein solution preparation - partial unfolding of whey proteins by heating - mechanical and ultrasonic homogenization - formation of the complex between WPI and phosphatidylcholine liposomes - refractometry This internship was arranged through IAESTE Exchange program.

Madeta A. S. | Jan 2018 - Jan 2018

Summer Intern

Internship at the department for innovations where I got familiar with cheese and yogurt technology.

Agricultural University of Athens | Jun 2017 - Jan 2017

Trainee

Tasks - Isolation of DNA and characterisation by PCR methods - Determination of antibacterial activity of bacteriocins This internship was arranged through IAESTE Exchange program.
