Through this project, ARDI will assist in the
development of the Richardson Centre for Functional Foods and
Nutraceuticals (RCFFN). The focus of RCFFN is to become a nationally
and internationally recognized Centre of Excellence for research and
development of functional foods and nutraceuticals.
The
research goals are to:
-
Enhance the activities of the research community at the University of
Manitoba in functional foods and nutraceuticals through the provision
of state-of-the-art research facilities and the opportunity to develop
multi-disciplinary research.
-
Make a major contribution to the economic viability of the functional
foods and nutraceuticals industry in western Canada through the
identification of new products from western Canadian crops.
-
Provide safety and efficacy testing of functional food and
nutraceutical products for external agencies as a service to the
industrial community.
-
Partner with other research institutions in Manitoba and in Canada in
order to collectively foster and build the functional food and
nutraceutical industry in Canada.
