Post-harvest & Processing Technology

Drying, chilling, packaging and value-added product development that reduce post-harvest loss and improve shelf-life of fish and fishery products.

Why it matters

Bangladesh is one of the world's leading fish-producing countries, and quality and safety decide both consumer health and export value. Conventional laboratory methods are slow, expensive and destroy the sample. This laboratory develops methods that are fast, non-destructive and affordable enough for routine use.

How we work

• Sample collection from local landing centres, farms and markets
• Standardised sample preparation in the laboratory
• Instrumental measurement and data acquisition
• Chemometric modelling and validation
• Training of students and stakeholders on the method
