Prof. Mohammad Mohsenzadeh | Ferdowsi University of Mashhad | Iran

Prof. Mohammad Mohsenzadeh holds a Ph.D. in Food Safety and Technology with specialization in Food Microbiology and Biotechnology from Ferdowsi University of Mashhad (FUM), Iran. His expertise spans food microbiology and biotechnology, food nanotechnology, food chemistry and biochemistry, preservation and packaging, industrial microbiology, and quality control of food products. He has directed and assisted numerous research projects focusing on antibiotic residues, aflatoxin detection, microbial contamination, and pathogen identification in milk, meat, and dairy products, employing advanced techniques such as ELISA, HPLC, and PCR. His investigations into antibiotic resistance in Gram-positive bacteria, Salmonella contamination, and Brucella spp. detection have contributed significantly to food safety and public health. Prof. Mohsenzadeh has also explored the application of HACCP, TQM, and ISO systems in food processing, advancing risk analysis and quality management across the food industry. As a member of the International HACCP Alliance, Iranian Veterinary Association, and the Veterinary Organization of the Islamic Republic of Iran, he actively promotes global standards in food hygiene and safety. He has taught extensively in veterinary medicine and food technology, covering courses in food hygiene, milk and meat inspection, bacteriology, and quality control at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. He has delivered professional workshops on raw milk hygiene, food poisoning, and HACCP implementation for veterinarians and food inspectors. His scholarly output includes over 40 research publications in indexed journals, with more than 700 citations and an h-index of 12, reflecting his impactful contributions to food microbiology, safety, and biotechnology in both academic and industrial contexts.
