“How You Can Reduce Your Environmental Impact Through Food Choices – EPA Region 6” presented by Stephen Sturdivant with the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

Food testing services now offered to companies through the Ravishankar lab.

We answer your questions and provide tips about how to make sure the food we prepare at home during the holiday season is safe.

University of Arizona Professor Sadhana Ravishankar has spent her career keeping agricultural products in Arizona safe and was recently awarded Inventor of the Year by Tech Launch Arizona after her lab developed natural antimicrobial washes for produce. Her work has become especially important in an agricultural state like Arizona, where so many of our winter salad vegetables are grown.
