Influence of flavour transfer between different gel phases on perceived aroma
2007
International audience; Multiphasic models of stirred fruit yoghurts made from a bilayer that consisted of a pectin and a dairy gel were developed in order to study the transfer of strawberry flavour compounds between the two phases. Several parameters (i.e., the flavour concentration, the fat content of the dairy gel and the storage temperature) affecting flavour compound transfer, using an experimental design, together with their effect on sensory perception were investigated. Strawberry flavour transfer between the two gels was high enough to affect the sensory perception of the dairy gels. The parameters that modified the partitioning of ethyl esters between the pectin and dairy gel (i.…
Retention/release equilibrium of aroma compounds in fat-free dairy gels
2010
BACKGROUND: The replacement of fat by thickeners in fat-free yoghurts leads to an important modification of aroma compound partitioning, with an impact on aroma perception. Investigation of retention/release equilibria allows a good understanding of aroma compound behaviour depending on food composition. RESULTS: Vapour/liquid equilibria of ten aroma compounds (two esters, two ketones, three aldehydes and three alcohols) in several media were studied to investigate the influence of pectin addition to fat-free dairy gel on the retention/release equilibrium. The partition coefficient of each aroma compound was measured by headspace analysis at equilibrium in six media (pure water, low-methoxy…

Striving for mutual understanding : native English speakers' views on speech modifications in intercultural encounters

”Foreigner talk” -nimistä ilmiötä on aikaisemmin tutkittu melko laajaltikin eri näkökulmien kautta. Suurin osa tutkimuksesta on tehty 1980-luvulla, jonka jälkeen termin käyttö näyttää hiljalleen vähentyneen. ”Foreigner talk” tarkoittaa muokattua kieltä, jonka tarkoitus on tehdä puheesta ymmärrettävämpää henkilölle, jonka kompetenssi kohdekielessä ei ole toisen puhujan kanssa syystä tai toisesta samalla tasolla: kyseessä voivat olla esimerkiksi kieltä äidinkielenään puhuva henkilö ja kieltä vieraana kielenä puhuva henkilö. Aivan viime aikoina ilmiö näyttää nouseen taas suosioon tutkimuskohteena etenkin osana työympäristöä, jossa kansainväliset kohtaamiset ovat monelle arkipäivää. Siitä huoli…
Action simulation in the human brain: Twelve questions
2013
Although the idea of action simulation is nowadays popular in cognitive science, neuroscience and robotics, many aspects of the simulative processes remain unclear from empirical, computational, and neural perspectives. In the first part of the article, we provide a critical review and assessment of action simulation theories advanced so far in the wider literature of embodied and motor cognition. We focus our analysis on twelve key questions, and discuss them in the context of human and (occasionally) primate studies. In the second part of the article, we describe an integrative neuro-computational account of action simulation, which links the neural substrate (as revealed in neuroimaging …
An optimization-based approach for solving a time-harmonic multiphysical wave problem with higher-order schemes
2013
This study considers developing numerical solution techniques for the computer simulations of time-harmonic fluid-structure interaction between acoustic and elastic waves. The focus is on the efficiency of an iterative solution method based on a controllability approach and spectral elements. We concentrate on the model, in which the acoustic waves in the fluid domain are modeled by using the velocity potential and the elastic waves in the structure domain are modeled by using displacement.Traditionally, the complex-valued time-harmonic equations are used for solving the time-harmonic problems. Instead of that, we focus on finding periodic solutions without solving the time-harmonic problem…

Building on 150 Years of Knowledge : The Freshwater Isopod Asellus aquaticus as an Integrative Eco-Evolutionary Model System
2021
Interactions between organisms and their environments are central to how biological diversity arises and how natural populations and ecosystems respond to environmental change. These interactions involve processes by which phenotypes are affected by or respond to external conditions (e.g., via phenotypic plasticity or natural selection) as well as processes by which organisms reciprocally interact with the environment (e.g., via eco-evolutionary feedbacks). Organism-environment interactions can be highly dynamic and operate on different hierarchical levels, from genes and phenotypes to populations, communities, and ecosystems. Therefore, the study of organism-environment interactions requir…
Effects of anthropogenic stress on hosts and their microbiomes: Treated wastewater alters performance and gut microbiome of a key detritivore ( Asell…
2023
Human activity is a major driver of ecological and evolutionary change in wild populations and can have diverse effects on eukaryotic organisms as well as on environmental and host-associated microbial communities. Although host-microbiome interactions can be a major determinant of host fitness, few studies consider the joint responses of hosts and their microbiomes to anthropogenic changes. In freshwater ecosystems, wastewater is a widespread anthropogenic stressor that represents a multifarious environmental perturbation. Here, we experimentally tested the impact of treated wastewater on a keystone host (the freshwater isopod Asellus aquaticus) and its gut microbiome. We used a semi-natur…
INTERACTIONS BETWEEN FUNCTIONALIZED THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMER AND LAYERED DOUBLE HYDROXIDES
2016
Results coming from rheological analysis clearly suggest that in SEBS-g-MA-based nanocomposites, containing high amount of o-LDH, the formation of strong interactions between the dispersed nanoparticles and maleic functionalities of matrix occurs. A significant modification of the rheological behaviour can be noticed due to the formation of gel-like structures.
