Photo-Fenton Swan Neck Reactor for Air Pollutant and Microbial Removal
A modular, low-maintenance photo-Fenton reactor using LED-UV, ferrous iron, and hydrogen peroxide to degrade volatile organic compounds and inactivate airborne microbes without emissions or HEPA filter degradation.
Stabilized hydroxyl-radical activated water sanitizer for surface decontamination
A novel liquid surface sanitizer based on stabilized hydroxyl-radical activated water that provides broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity without toxic residues. The technology uses a Fenton-like reaction with hydrogen p...
Gas-phase hydroxyl radical treatment for rapid pest control and plant pathogen resistance
A novel advanced oxidative process that delivers hydroxyl radicals in seconds to reduce pests, inactivate pathogens, and stimulate plant systemic acquired resistance. Validated on microgreens, strawberries, and avocado, ...
AI-Powered Apple Yield Prediction and Orchard Health Monitoring System
An ATV-mounted machine vision and AI platform that automates apple flower and fruit counting, detects diseased trees, and delivers actionable yield estimates and remediation guidance to tree fruit producers.
Mycotoxin-Degradation Strategies for Fusarium-Resistant Cereal Crops
A systems biology approach to identify host-driven mycotoxin degradation pathways in cereal crops, enabling development of Fusarium-resistant seed lines. Aims to reduce DON mycotoxin accumulation in wheat, protecting liv...
High-throughput UAS multispectral phenotyping platform for winter wheat breeding
Drone-based multispectral imaging system that replaces manual field measurements with automated assessment of winter survival, canopy height, yield potential, and disease traits in winter wheat breeding programs.
Endophytic Microbial Biocontrol Solutions for Fusarium Suppression and Diversified Cropping Systems
A microbial biocontrol platform leveraging ~2000 endophytic strains from corn and wheat, with ~50 confirmed to suppress Fusarium graminearum and reduce mycotoxins. Applications include spray and seed-coat treatments. Com...
Cost-effective phospholipid-based tempering agents for chocolate manufacturing
A novel food ingredient approach to chocolate tempering using modified phospholipid fractions derived from soy lecithin. By interesterifying phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) fractions with cocon...
Optimizing intercrop success through row orientation and crop management
Research-based agronomic solution that improves intercrop performance by manipulating row orientation, spacing, density, and cultivar selection to maximize light interception in corn-cover crop and wheat-soybean relay in...
Novel lipid edible coatings for postharvest quality improvement
Tailored lipid edible coatings including wax esters, sucrose esters, and mono/di-acylglycerols designed to enhance storability and postharvest quality of horticultural products. Developed through biocatalytic synthesis w...
