Henrik Siegumfeldt

Kort præsentation

Jeg arbejder med både de positive og negative sider af fødevaremikrobiologi, så mine interesseområder er både fermentering, fordærv og sygdomsfremkaldende mikroorganismer.

Jeg underviser i general fødevaremikrobiologi, og derudover underviser jeg også specifikt i øl-videnskab og mejerimikrobiologi. 

Udover mine forsknings og undervisningsopgaver er jeg også studieleder for kandidatuddannelsen i Food Science and Technology.

Primære forskningsområder

• Bioimaging og enkeltcellestudier
• Mikrobiologisk hygiejne
• Øl- og vinmikrobiologi

Undervisnings- og vejledningsområder

• Generel Fødevaremikrobiologi
• Fermenterede produkter, herunder øl, vin, syrnede mælkeprodukter og "nye" fermenterede produkter
• Fordærv og mikrobiel hygiejne
