Argueta gave a presentation on “Effect of Maillard Conjugates vs. Electrostatic Deposition on the Formation of Lutein-Enriched Emulsions.”
She is one of nine students who will represent Cal Poly Pomona in the 40th annual California State University Systemwide Student Research Competition at San Jose State, on April 23-25.
Professor Gabriel Davidov-Pardo is her faculty mentor.
