Claudine Lanteigne Dubé

In 1975, Claudine Lanteigne Dubé graduated from the University of Moncton, NB, with a BSc in Biology and Biochemistry. She worked for Cosmair Canada as a quality control technician on capillary and cosmetic products, from 1976-1980. In 1981, she worked at Kellogg Salada, in Montreal, as a sensory technician for tea products. From 1983-1985, she worked for the Ministère de l’Environnement du Québec as a technician, doing bioassays using algae, daphnia and microtox as indicators of pollution in residuals waters as well as in beaches, lakes, etc… In 1988, Claudine started to work as a laboratory technician, on the chemistry of milk products, at the Central Experimental Farm of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC), in Ottawa. In 1995, she was transferred at the AAFC-Food Research and Development Centre (FRDC), in St-Hyacinthe. She then returned to school, at the University of Montreal, in order to receive academical training in Microbiological sciences. She did microbiology and molecular biology assays for meat quality assurance, from 1996 through 2004. In 2003, under a grant from the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), she did a 10 weeks workshop at the Centro de Investigación y Asistencia en Technología y Diseño del Estado de Jalisco (CIATEJ), in Guadalajara, Mexico, to investigate on the use of essential oil of oregano as antifungal in meat products. In 2004, she was transferred in the fermentation sector of FRDC, working on kimchi, garlic flower, sauerkraut and other possible fermented products. April 2008, she joined Dr. Khanizadeh’s team, at the AAFC-Research and Development Center on Horticulture (CRDH), as a research assistant on strawberries and other horticultural products.
