个人简介
Dr. Shahid Ahmed Junejo is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the School of Food Science and Engineering, South China University of Technology. His research focuses on nutrient digestibility and the role of plant cell wall structures—particularly in pulses—as natural barriers that regulate nutrient release during digestion. He investigates how pulse macrostructures, such as cell walls and protein matrices, influence cell morphology, starch characteristics (including crystallinity and thermal stability), and in vitro starch digestibility. His work aims to understand how structural and biochemical factors in starch-rich plant tissues affect nutrient bioaccessibility, with particular emphasis on the fact that many plant tissues remain partially intact during digestion, thereby resticting nutrient release. The research provides a theoretical foundation and practical guidance for the development of functional pulse-based foods with low glycemic index (GI).Dr. Junejo is currently conducting a mechanistic study on lectin allergenicity and starch digestibility in legume intact cotyledon cells subjected to high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) processing. Lectins in undercooked or unprocessed legumes can trigger digestive discomfort and allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. His research employs advanced analytical techniques to explore how HHP treatment alters the macrostructure of legume cells and the multi-scale structure of intracellular starch, with the aim of understanding the dual impact on allergenicity and starch digestion.
