Short research description: 

My research project is based on the evaluation of bioactive compounds able to have an effect on health. In particular, I work with cell models such as HUVEC and THP-1 in order to evaluate the capability of the polyphenols to counteract the inflammation and the endothelial dysfunction. On the other hand I have done some experiences with in vivo study. For instance, the evaluation of adiposity in obese children after the supplementation with DHA, the evaluation of DNA damage by COMET assay in men which consume a note quantity of coffee.

COMET assay, Folin assay, ELISA, Trypan-blu assay
