La terminologie du cacao dans un pays producteur (Equateur) et sa diffusion : une terminologie de filière ou commerciale ?
2018
International audience; ContexteSi la gastronomie, au sens large, a de tout temps constitué un objet culturel important dans la plupart des sociétés, elle connaît depuis au moins deux décennies un regain d’intérêt sans précédent se donnant à lire à au moins trois niveaux : (i)en termes d’institutionnalisation avec l’inscription au patrimoine immatériel de l’UNESCO de plusieurs de ses réalisations à l’instar de l’art du pizzaiolo napolitain en 2017, la culture de la bière en Belgique en 2016 ou encore le repas gastronomique des Français en 2011 ; (ii)en termes scientifiques à travers la reconnaissance de celle-ci comme objet de recherche interdisciplinaire, tant fondamentale qu’appliquée, …
A metabolomics-driven approach to predict cocoa product consumption by designing a multimetabolite biomarker model in free-living subjects from the P…
2014
Scope The aim of the current study was to apply an untargeted metabolomics strategy to characterize a model of cocoa intake biomarkers in a free-living population. Methods and results An untargeted HPLC-q-ToF-MS based metabolomics approach was applied to human urine from 32 consumers of cocoa or derived products (CC) and 32 matched control subjects with no consumption of cocoa products (NC). The multivariate statistical analysis (OSC-PLS-DA) showed clear differences between CC and NC groups. The discriminant biomarkers identified were mainly related to the metabolic pathways of theobromine and polyphenols, as well as to cocoa processing. Consumption of cocoa products was also associated wit…
Involvement of NMDA glutamate receptors in the acquisition and reinstatement of the conditioned place preference induced by MDMA.
2015
Some 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) users become dependent as a result of chronic consumption. A greater understanding of the neurobiological basis of the rewarding effects of MDMA could contribute to developing effective pharmacotherapies for MDMA-related problems. The present study evaluated the role of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptors (NMDARs) in the acquisition and reinstatement of conditioned place preference (CPP) induced by MDMA. Adolescent male mice were conditioned with 1 or 10 mg/kg MDMA and pretreated with 5 or 10 mg/kg of the NMDAR antagonist memantine during acquisition of conditioning (experiment 1), or before a reinstatement test (experiment 2). In ad…
Cacao extract enriched in polyphenols prevents endocrine-metabolic disturbances in a rat model of prediabetes triggered by a sucrose rich diet.
2019
Cocoa extracts rich in polyphenols are used as potential agent for treating diabetes. Cocoa polyphenols have been proved to ameliorate important hallmarks of type-2 diabetes (T2D). They can regulate glucose levels by increasing insulin secretion, promoting β-cell proliferation and a reduction of insulin resistance. In addition, epidemiological evidence indicates that consumption of flavonoid decreases the incidence of T2D.T2D is preceded by a prediabetic state in which the endocrine-metabolic changes described in T2D are already present. Since epidemiological evidence indicates that consumption of flavonoid decreases its incidence, we evaluated possible preventive effects of polyphenol-enri…
Direct determination by portable ED-XRF of mineral profile in cocoa powder samples
2019
Abstract The present study has exploited the rapidity of the analysis and the multi-elemental capability of the energy dispersive X- ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) technique for the mineral profile determination in cocoa powder. A fast, cheap and environmental sustainable method without reagent consumption or toxic waste generation has been proposed. The samples can be prepared in the form of pellets of 13 mm in diameter and 2–3 mm thickness. The different internal calibrations used by ED-XRF equipment did not provide accurate results when comparing the mineral profile with the concentration obtained by Inductively Couple Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) after microwave assisted di…

Explotación de recursos geológicos en la periferia valenciana: Camp de Túria y Hoya de Buñol-Chiva
1990
En este artículo se pretende estudiar la influencia que ejerce el área metropolitana de Valencia (AMV) sobre el espacio contiguo occidental (las comarcas del Camp de Turia y la Hoya de Buñol-Chiva) en un aspecto determinado: la explotación de los recursos geológicos de este espacio. Para ello el estudio se centrara en primer lugar en las condiciones litológicas del área en cuestión. Seguidamente, definiremos la evolución de este sector desde finales del siglo XVIII. Y, finalmente, estudiaremos la situación actual. Para ello nos basaremos en la localización de los yacimientos y su evolución, así como en la titularidad de las distintas explotaciones y en los principales destinos del volumen e…
