L'intégration multisensorielle comme stratégie pour compenser la réduction en sodium et matière grasse dans les aliments
No full textAu cours des dernières années, les autorités sanitaires ont recommandé une réduction de la teneur en sel et en gras dans la consommation alimentaire quotidienne. Cependant, les aliments à teneur réduite en sel et en gras sont souvent peu appréciés par les consommateurs, ce qui a amené au développement des recherches sur les stratégies possibles pour maintenir l’acceptabilité des aliments tout en réduisant les teneurs en ces ingrédients. Dans cette thèse, l’intégration multi-sensorielle et les cinétiques de libération du sel et des arômes mesurées in vitro ont été étudiés pour évaluer leur potentialité à compenser une réduction en sel et matière grasse d’un fromage modèle de composition variable et d’un fromage réel (type trappiste).Dans une première étape, une approche sensorielle a permis d’étudier les interactions multi-sensorielles arômes-saveurs-texture pour les formages modèles et réels. La structure et la perception sensorielle de vingt-quatre modèles fromagers variant en composition (2 niveaux de gras, 2 de sel, 2 de pH à l’emprésurage) et aromatisés avec un arôme de sardine (associé au sel), d'un arôme de beurre (associé au gras) ou non aromatisés (témoin) ont été caractérisés par des mesures rhéologiques (compression uniaxiale) et des mesures sensorielles (profil descriptif). Les résultats ont montré une influence de la composition sur la structure et la texture perçue des produits. Par ailleurs, l’arôme sardine a conduit à une perception plus salé ; l’arôme de beurre a permis de renforcer la perception du caractère gras. Toutefois cette influence des arômes sur les autres dimensions sensorielles est fonction de la texture des produits donc de leur composition et de leur structure. Ces résultats ont été étendus à des fromages réels avec toutefois des spécificités. Si l’arôme sardine renforce la perception du sel, seul l’arôme de beurre associé à l’arôme de sardine permet de renforcer le caractère gras.Dans une deuxième étape, une approche physico-chimique a été développée pour explorer les cinétiques de libération des stimuli odorants et sapides dans des conditions simulant la mastication in vitro à l’aide d’un simulateur de mastication. L’objectif était d’utiliser les données ainsi obtenues pour expliquer l’influence de la structure des produits et de leur déstructuration lors de la mastication sur les effets sensoriels observés dans la première étape. Les modèles fromagers et les fromages réels ont été ainsi étudiés. La libération des composés volatils a été évaluée en connectant le simulateur de mastication à un spectromètre de masse à pression atmosphérique (PTR-MS) ; la libération du sodium a été suivie grâce à une sonde de conductivité. Les résultats ont montré une influence des trois paramètres de composition (teneur en matière grasse, en sel et pH à l’emprésurage) sur les cinétiques de la libération des arômes. Cette variation dépend néanmoins de la nature de l’arôme suivi ; les arômes plus hydrophobes étant moins sensibles aux variations de la teneur en matière grasse et plus sensibles aux variations de pH et donc à la structure du produit. La cinétique de libération du sel lors de la mastication in vitro est aussi largement influencée par la composition et la structure des produits. Outre la teneur en sel qui conditionne les quantités libérées, la teneur en matière grasse et le pH à l’emprésurage module la cinétique de libération du sel. Au final, ces travaux montrent une importante contribution de la cinétique de libération et donc probablement de la temporalité des sensations dans perception globale du sel et de la matière grasse lors de la consommation d’un aliment complexe.In recent years, health authorities worldwide advise for a reduction of salt and fat in daily food consumption. However, foods with reduced salt and fat content are often not appreciated by consumers, Therefore, the formulation of low-salt-fat foods that maintain acceptability is a major concern in food research. In this thesis, the multi-sensory integration and release kinetics of flavor compounds were explored as strategies to compensate for salt and fat reduction in cheese products (model cheeses and real cheeses). The objective was to better understand the mechanisms leading to aroma and salt release during mastication and to evaluate how the matrix composition and structure influence salt and aroma release profile.Multisensory integration approach to compensate for salt and fat reduction was studied in a first step. The structure and sensory perception of 24 cheese models varying in composition (2 levels of fat, 2 salt, 2 pH at renneting) and flavored with either a sardine aroma (associated to salt), a butter aroma (associated to fat) or not flavoured (control) were characterised by rheological measurements (uniaxial compression) and sensory evaluation (descriptive analysis). The results demonstrated an influence of the composition on the products structure and perceived texture. Furthermore, a significant saltiness enhancement was induced by sardine aroma while significant fat perception enhancement was induced by butter aroma. However, this influence of the aroma on other sensory dimensions depends on the texture of the products thus on their composition and structure. These results have been extended to real cheeses but with specificities. If the sardine flavor enhanced the perception of salt, only butter-sardine-flavor enhanced the perception of fat.In a second step, a physico-chemical approach was developed to explore the release kinetic of flavor compounds during in vitro breakdown using a chewing simulator. The aim was to use these data to explain the influence of the structure of model cheeses and real cheeses and their breakdown during chewing on sensory effects observed in the first step. Volatile compounds release was monitored by connecting the chewing simulator to a proton transfer reaction-mass spectrometry (PTR-MS), while salt release was monitored using a conductivity probe. Results showed that product composition and structure (fat, salt and pH at renneting) influenced aroma release, which however depends on the nature of the aroma: the more hydrophobic compounds are less sensitive to variations in fat content and more sensitive to variations in pH and therefore to the products structure. The salt release kinetic during in vitro chewing was also influenced by the composition and structure of the products. Indeed, beyond salt content which determined the amount of salt released, fat content and the pH at renneting modulated the release kinetic. In conclusion, this work showed a significant impact of the flavor compounds release kinetic and probably of temporality of sensations on the overall perception of salt and fat when consuming a complex food
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
