Fast-food consumption and body mass index in children and adolescents: an international cross-sectional study.
2014
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether reported fast-food consumption over the previous year is associated with higher childhood or adolescent body mass index (BMI). DESIGN: Secondary analysis from a multicentre, multicountry cross-sectional study (International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Children (ISAAC) Phase Three). SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Parents/guardians of children aged 6-7 completed questionnaires which included questions about their children's asthma and allergies, fast-food consumption, height and weight. Adolescents aged 13-14 completed the same questionnaire. The questionnaire asked 'In the past 12 months, how often on average did you (your child) eat fast-food/burgers?' The resp…
Food tray sealing fault detection using hyperspectral imaging and PCANet
2020
Abstract Food trays are very common in shops and supermarkets. Fresh food packaged in trays must be correctly sealed to protect the internal atmosphere and avoid contamination or deterioration. Due to the speed of production, it is not possible to have human quality inspection. Thus, automatic fault detection is a must to reach high production volume. This work describes a deep neural network based on Principal Component Analysis Network (PCANet) for food tray sealing fault detection. The input data come from hyperspectral cameras, showing more characteristics than regular industrial cameras or the human eye as they capture the spectral properties for each pixel. The proposed classification…
Ultrasound-Assisted Lactic Acid Fermentation of Bakraei (Citrus reticulata cv. Bakraei) Juice: Physicochemical and Bioactive Properties
2022
In this study, ultrasonication (US) (50 W, 30 kHz, 1–6 min) was used to increase the efficiency of Limosilactobacillus reuteri PTCC 1655 fermentation process (37 °C; 30 h) of Bakraei juice. Total sugars, pH, Brix, organic acids, vitamin C, polyphenols, antioxidant activity, α-amylase inhibition and anti-inflammatory properties were measured during the fermentation period. The results showed that by increasing the ultrasound time up to 5 min, pH, vitamin C, citric acid, and polyphenolic compounds decreased, while lactic acid, antioxidant capacity, α-amylase inhibition and anti-inflammatory properties were increased. When the ultrasound time was increased up to 6 min, co…

La biopréservation: une stratégie d’avenir pour la conservation des aliments
2015
N° d'article 201511121820; La demande grandissante des consommateurs pour des produits alimentaires à teneur réduite en conservateurs pousse les industriels de l’agroalimentaire à rechercher des méthodes de conservation alternatives. Dans ce contexte, la bioprotection s’impose comme un procédé à fort potentiel. Cette technique consiste à inoculer sur les aliments des cultures de bactéries protectrices. Celles-ci, par l’intermédiaire de plusieurs mécanismes, vont inhiber la croissance de bactéries pathogènes et d’altération telles que Listeria monocytogenes et Salmonella. Cependant, cette technique n’a pas d’effet sur les spores bactériennes. Ainsi, l’objet central du projet de recherche ANR…

Exploiting the Redox Activity of MIL-100(Fe) Carrier Enables Prolonged Carvacrol Antimicrobial Activity
2022
The design of efficient food contact materials that maintain optimal levels of food safety is of paramount relevance to reduce the increasing number of foodborne illnesses. In this work, we develop a smart composite metal-organic framework (MOF)-based material that fosters a unique prolonged antibacterial activity. The composite is obtained by entrapping a natural food preserving molecule, carvacrol, into a mesoporous MIL-100(Fe) material following a direct and biocompatible impregnation method, and obtaining particularly high payloads. By exploiting the intrinsic redox nature of the MIL-100(Fe) material, it is possible to achieve a prolonged activity against Escherichia coli and Listeria i…
Art, cuisine et dépendances mutuelles

Professeur des Universités (Dijon), sémiologue de l'alimentation L'homme du paléolithique donne déjà raison à Lévi-Strauss. S'il pense sa nourriture, il ne pense pas moins à peindre ce qu'il chasse et mange. Pinceau en main, l'homme n'aura de cesse de reproduire les aliments, pour voir dans fruits et bestiaires, non simples pelures et pelages, mais vie, âme, mystère. L'art et la nourriture ont toujours marié leurs couleurs et leurs saveurs expressives. La nature morte fera recette pendant des siècles, avant que les courants artistiques ne s'emparent de la modernité alimentaire. Une exposition devenue permanente avec les médias qui cultivent notre disposition esthétique à l'égard du fait cul…
Genetic Polymorphism in Wine Yeasts: Mechanisms and Methods for Its Detection
2017
The processes of yeast selection for using as wine fermentation starters have revealed a great phenotypic diversity both at interspecific and intraspecific level, which is explained by a corresponding genetic variation among different yeast isolates. Thus, the mechanisms involved in promoting these genetic changes are the main engine generating yeast biodiversity. Currently, an important task to understand biodiversity, population structure and evolutionary history of wine yeasts is the study of the molecular mechanisms involved in yeast adaptation to wine fermentation, and on remodeling the genomic features of wine yeast, unconsciously selected since the advent of winemaking. Moreover, the…
Retro-nasal aroma release is correlated with variations in the in-mouth air cavity volume after empty deglutition.
2012
International audience; We hypothesized that interindividual differences in motor activities during chewing and/or swallowing were determining factors for the transfer of volatile aroma from the in-mouth air cavity (IMAC) toward the olfactory mucosa. In our first experiment, we looked for changes in IMAC volume after saliva deglutition in 12 healthy subjects. The mean IMAC volume was measured after empty deglutition using an acoustic pharyngometer device. Based on the time course of the IMAC volume after swallowing, we discerned two groups of subjects. The first group displayed a small, constant IMAC volume (2.26 mL ±0.62) that corresponded to a high tongue position. The second group displa…
