Effects of mountain grassland maturity stage and grazing managment on carotenoids in sward and cows’ milk.
2006
The maturity stage of the grass affects milk fatty acids of cows grazing a mountain grassland
2010
International audience; We aimed to quantify the effect of the growth stage of a mountain grassland pasture on the fatty acid (FA) composition of grass and milk. In June (growth) and October (regrowth), a mountain pasture was continuously grazed by six dairy cows in a strip grazing system. During June, the grass C18:3n-3 content decreased while C16:0, c9-C18:1 and C18:2n-6 content increased. During October, the grass FA composition was similar to that observed in the first part of June. During June, milk saturated FA (SFA) content increased while the sum of the trans FA and polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) content decreased, mainly due to the decrease in C18:3n-3 and c9t11-CLA percentages. At the …
Calcium bioavailability in human milk, cow milk and infant formulasâcomparison between dialysis and solubility methods
1999
Abstract The percentages of total, soluble and dialysable calcium of human milk, cow milk and milk and soy based infant formulas were determined in order to detect possible differences in the calcium bioavailability of the samples. For this purpose an in vitro method was applied to these four calcium sources. The ranking of the analysed samples in terms of calcium bioavailability depends on the criteria applied. Calcium ranked dialysis percentage was: cow milk>human milk>soy based formula>milk based formulas. Calcium ranked solubility percentage was: human milk>cow milk>soy-based formula>milk-based formulas. Comparison of the results of the in vitro assay with the information available on i…
Calcium dialysability as an estimation of bioavailability in human milk, cow milk and infant formulas
1999
Abstract The calcium dialysability of human milk, cow milk and infant formulas is estimated by applying the in vitro method (Miller, Schricker, Rasmussen, & Van Campen, (1981). American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 34, 2248–2256) slightly modified, as a measure of its bioavailability. The influence of the protein composition of infant formula samples on calcium bioavailability is also studied. Whole cow milk, a pool of human milk and 18 commercial infant formulas of 6 different types are analysed. The highest values of calcium dialysability (mg Ca/100 ml infant formula) correspond to premature (13.6) and follow-up formulas (11.8) and the lowest ones to adapted formulas (3.7); the latter v…
Anton Čechov, Il giardino dei ciliegi
2023
Anton Chekhov wrote his last play, Višnëvyj sad (The Cherry Orchard), at the dawn of the twentieth century. From Yalta on 22 April 1901 he sent a letter to the Moscow Art Theater’s actress Olga Knipper, whom he would marry within a year, telling her that he was tempted to write a four acts vaudeville or a comedy, and would have been able to send it to the Art Theatre «not before the end of 1903». So it was. And so it takes shape for the scene The Cherry Orchard; Chekhov managed to create «a spider's web» with which he captured the attention and the mind of the spectators of the first opening of the play in 1904, as well as of every subsequent re-run on all the stages of the world. The Cherr…
Effects of thermal processing and storage on available lysine and furfural compounds contents of infant formulas.
2000
The Maillard reaction-related effects that thermal treatments during the manufacturing process and storage (at 20 and 37 degrees C) have on powdered adapted and follow-up milk-based infant formulas were estimated by measuring the available lysine and furfural compounds contents of raw cow milk used in manufacturing, intermediate products and formulas. A fluorimetric method was used to measure the available lysine contents, and free and total furfural compounds were determined by HPLC. Statistically significant losses in available lysine (about 20%) in the infant formulas with respect to raw milk were found. The storage period did not affect the available lysine contents of adapted formulas …
La validación del clima de justicia y de la justicia entre compañeros en un entorno real de trabajo
2016
Abstract In this study we tested the validity of justice climate and peer justice, measured as second-order constructs, in a real work setting. First, we investigated the appropriateness of aggregating first-order facets of justice climate and peer justice to work-unit level of analysis. Second, we examined the construct validity of justice climate and peer justice as two different factor structures. Third, we tested the hierarchical structure of justice climate and peer justice as second-order factors. Finally, we examined the predictive validity of second-order factors justice climate and peer justice within a nomological network composed of reciprocity with the supervisor and reciprocity…
Appropriate kernels for Divisive Normalization explained by Wilson-Cowan equations
2018
The interaction between wavelet-like sensors in Divisive Normalization is classically described through Gaussian kernels that decay with spatial distance, angular distance and frequency distance. However, simultaneous explanation of (a) distortion perception in natural image databases and (b) contrast perception of artificial stimuli requires very specific modifications in classical Divisive Normalization. First, the wavelet response has to be high-pass filtered before the Gaussian interaction is applied. Then, distinct weights per subband are also required after the Gaussian interaction. In summary, the classical Gaussian kernel has to be left- and right-multiplied by two extra diagonal ma…
Querying and reasoning over large scale building data sets
2016
International audience; The architectural design and construction domains work on a daily basis with massive amounts of data. Properly managing, exchanging and exploiting these data is an ever ongoing challenge in this domain. This has resulted in large semantic RDF graphs that are to be combined with a significant number of other data sets (building product catalogues, regulation data, geometric point cloud data, simulation data, sensor data), thus making an already huge dataset even larger. Making these big data available at high performance rates and speeds and into the correct (intuitive) formats is therefore an incredibly high challenge in this domain. Yet, hardly any benchmark is avai…
