The laboratory belongs to department of food and wellness, Rakuno Gakuen University and is governed by prof. Isamu Kaneda.
We are studying the physics or physical chemistry of foods. Our main research tool is rheology. several types of rheometers are equipped in our lab. We also use some powerful observation system such as AFM, SEM, TEM, and SALS to consider the relation between phenomenological and molecular theory in foods.
Recent research targets are UDON (Japanese traditional noodles), AN (sweet beans paste), chocolate, eggs etc.
