Foubert Paul 1812-1886
No full textPaul Foubert est né le 21 mai 1812 à Entrammes (Mayenne) où son père, Joseph, était propriétaire et homme d’affaires. Sa mère, Perrine Gontier, était originaire de la Manche et c’est d’elle qu’il reçut en héritage le château de la Forêt, à Saint-Sauveur-le-Vicomte, où il devait passer une bonne partie de son existence. Sa famille l’envoya de bonne heure à Paris, auprès de son frère aîné qui y exerçait la profession d’avoué. Paul Foubert accomplit ses études au collège Stanislas, à Paris, où i..

Resuspended freeze-dried Nannochloropsis as a model laboratory system for concentrated fresh Nannochloropsis in ultrasound cell disruption experiments
No full textMicroalgae have rigid, complex cell walls hindering direct lipid extraction. Cell disruption techniques are used to rupture these cellular structures to increase lipid extraction. Researchers investigating the downstream processing of microalgae do not always have access to microalgal cultivation systems to generate large amounts of fresh microalgal biomass. Using resuspended freeze-dried microalgal biomass as a model laboratory system for concentrated fresh biomass during cell disruption experiments offers greater flexibility in experimental planning and omits investment costs of microalgal cultivation equipment. So far, it however remains unclear whether freeze-dried resuspended biomass can be used as a model laboratory system to represent concentrated fresh biomass during cell disruption and lipid extraction experiments. This paper thus evaluated the suitability of resuspended freeze-dried Nannochloropsis as a model laboratory system for concentrated fresh Nannochloropsis during cell disruption. Ultrasound assisted cell disruption was used as example cell disruption technique and lipid extraction efficiency and free fatty acid content were investigated. Tap water and 3% sodium chloride are both suitable resuspension media for the resuspension of freeze-dried Nannochloropsis. Resuspension duration should be limited (< 120 min) to prevent the formation of free fatty acids. The condition of the biomass (concentrated fresh, or resuspended freeze-dried) prior to ultrasound assisted cell disruption did not influence the resulting lipid extraction efficiency. Resuspended freeze-dried Nannochloropsis biomass in tap water or 3% sodium chloride can thus be used as a model laboratory system for fresh microalgal biomass during research on ultrasound assisted lipid extraction. The generalization of the results to other cultivation conditions, cell disruption techniques, components of interest or microalgal species should be carefully assessed.The author(s) declare that financial support was received for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article.

Replication Data for: Conversion of Retinyl Palmitate to Retinol by Wheat Bran Endogenous Lipase Reduces Vitamin A Stability
No full textThis data set contains all data supporting the following publication: Van Wayenbergh, E., Blockx, J., Langenaeken, N.A., Foubert, I. & Courtin, C.M. (2024). Conversion of retinyl palmitate by wheat bran endogenous lipase reduces vitamin A stability. Foods, 13 (1), 80. doi: 10.3390/foods13010080. In this study an accelerated storage experiment (60°C, 70% relative humidity) was performed with samples consisting of native or toasted wheat bran mixed with vitamin A-enriched oil. Three different vitamin A forms were used: retinyl palmitate, retinol and retinyl tridecanoate.Vitamin A retention, free fatty acid production, lipid oxidation and retinyl ester hydrolysis were monitored in function of storage time for samples
Gender-biased neologisms: the case of man-X
Get PDFCet article présente l’analyse sémantique et la diffusion de néologismes genrés en anglais que l’on appellera « man-neologisms » tels que man bun, mancation (man + vacation) et manspread. Notre étude (basée sur Foubert [2018]) montre que l’usage de man dans ces néologismes ne se réfère que très peu à son sens générique (les êtres humains en général, comme dans Homme) mais se réfère plutôt au sens spécifique (homme). Notre analyse sémantique des néologismes avec ce sens spécifique montre qu’ils sont spécifiques par le fait qu’ils désignent majoritairement des domaines typiquement associés aux femmes. De plus, notre étude révèle quatre motivations à l’origine de ces néologismes : (i) se réapproprier des domaines typiquement associés aux femmes, tel que man purse (un sac à main pour les hommes), (ii) cultiver les différences, tel que man cave (une pièce réservée aux hommes), (iii) conforter les stéréotypes, tel que man science (des connaissances qui ne sont disponibles qu’aux hommes), et (iv) nommer des comportements masculins indésirables, en ayant pour but de les changer, tel que mansplain (man + explain, ou mecspliquer : quand un homme explique quelque chose de façon condescendante). L’analyse portant sur la diffusion étudie la fréquence des occurrences des néologismes ; les résultats montrent que les néologismes qui visent à se réapproprier des domaines et plus particulièrement ceux qui visent à nommer des comportements masculins sont numériquement peu représentés dans les formations nouvelles, mais utilisés fréquemment, à l’inverse des néologismes qui cultivent les différences et confortent les stéréotypes.This article presents a semantic and frequency-based diffusion analysis of one specific type of gendered coinages that we will refer to as “man-neologisms” such as man bun, mancation (man + vacation) or manspread. Our study (based on Foubert [2018]) reveals that man in these coinages only rarely carries a generic meaning (referring to human beings in general, as in man is mortal) but mostly have a gender-specific meaning (“of, or related to, men”). Our analysis of the meanings of these man-specific neologisms shows that they are gender specific and mainly concern domains which are typically associated with women. Moreover, our analysis reveals four motivations behind the coinages of man-neologisms: (i) the reappropriation of domains which are typically associated with women, as in man purse (a purse for men), (ii) the reinforcement of differences, such as man cave (a room for men only), (iii) the confirmation of stereotypes, as in man science (a branch of knowledge available to men only), (iv) and naming undesirable male behaviours, mainly in an attempt to change them, such as mansplain (man + explain; men explaining things to women in a condescending way). The diffusion analysis observing the frequency of occurrences of man-neologisms reveals that neologisms aiming at the reappropriation of domains and particularly those naming undesirable male behaviours are less numerous in the list of coinages themselves, but more inclined to be diffused, contrary to neologisms reinforcing differences and confirming stereotypes
