Physico-chemical characterisation of a non-conventional food protein source from earthworms and sensory impact in arepas
2009
International audience; This study aimed to characterise a non-conventional protein source: a powder made from earthworms, and to evaluate its potential use as human food. The way it was prepared led to low solubility and wide particle size distribution. Sensory analysis was used to assess the acceptability and the organoleptic properties of maize-based pan-cakes fortified with this novel protein powder. Satisfying products were obtained with a substitution level of 5.5% (w/w) earthworm powder in pan-cakes. GC-MS allowed the identification of more than seventy volatile compounds that may be responsible for the off-odour of the powder. The most abundant chemical groups found in the volatile …
M. Cvetajevas individuālo jaundarinājumu tulkošanas problēma latviešu valodā
2019
Šis maģistra darbs ir veltīts tam, lai izpētītu tulkošanas problēmas dzējnieces Marinas Cvetajevas individuālos jaundarinājumus tulkojumā no krievu valodas latviešu valodā. Pētījuma materiāls bija dzejas krājums latviešu valodā „Marina Cvetajeva. Lirika”, kas izdots 1982. gadā. Šī darba mērķis ir pētīt M. Cvetajevas individuālos jaundarinājumus dzejā un to tulkošanas problēmas tulkojumā latviešu valodā. Darbu veido divas daļas. Darba pirmajā daļā tiek apskatīti galvenie teorētiskie jautājumi, kas saistīti ar literāro tekstu tulkošanas problēmām, individuālo jaundarinājumu noteikšanu un M. Cvetajevas daiļrades valodas specifiku. Otrā darba daļa ir praktiskā daļa. Tajā tiek veikta M. Cvetajev…
Micro-interactional insights from the English as a foreign language classroom
2014
In this paper, we examine instances of the methods pupils deploy to do language policy in an English as a foreign language classroom in Sweden, where there is a locally practised English-only rule. Although we exemplify some more tacit methods of constructing a monolingual classroom (Slotte-Lüttge 2007), we focus primarily on instances where pupils police other pupils and on occasion even the teacher, when they are perceived not to be upholding the rule. This blatantly explicit method of pupils doing language policy, which we term language policing, generally serves to (re-) establish and maintain English as the medium of interaction and instruction. The data for this study consists of vide…
Priming effect increases with depth in a boreal forest soil
2016
Abstract Climate warming increases labile carbon (C) inputs to soil through increased photosynthesis and C allocation belowground. This could counterintuitively lead to losses of soil C via priming effects (PE): the stimulation of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition caused by labile C addition. Systematic quantification of PEs in different ecosystems is needed. We measured PEs of free-living soil microbes in different layers of a boreal forest soil, and found that the relative magnitude of the PE increased with soil depth. The relationship between relative PE and the added glucose amount also depended on the soil layer. Our results indicate that the decomposition of SOM in deeper soil l…
Closed tank pneumatic press application to improve Sauvignon Blanc wine quality and nutraceutical properties
2019
The machines used in the winemaking process directly affect the quality of wine and its nutraceutical properties. Grapes-pressing is a very important step in winemaking as it may promote the presence and/or absence of enzymatic processes on the must, leading to the creation of different products in terms of chemical composition, starting from the same grapes. The aim of the study was to compare two different pressing systems of Sauvignon Blanc grapes using an innovative pneumatic discontinuous closed tank press in two operating modes: the traditional pressing mode in presence of oxygen and the inert pressing mode, performed through grapes pressing under inert gas with nitrogen recovery. Che…
Sensory Organ Investment Varies with Body Size and Sex in the Butterfly Pieris napi
2021
Simple Summary Pollinating insects rely on a range of senses such as vision, olfaction, gustation, and mechanosensation to utilise, locate, and fly between floral resources. The size of different sensory organs determines their sensitivity and provides an indication of their relative importance—larger organs can enhance sensitivity by increasing the number or size of sensing structures. However, increasing the relative size of an organ would require additional energy for developing and maintaining it. This likely leads to a trade-off between the energy invested into different sensory systems within individuals. To explore how the size of the sensory organs vary with body size in insect poll…
Challenges Associated with Byproducts Valorization—Comparison Study of Safety Parameters of Ultrasonicated and Fermented Plant-Based Byproducts
2020
In order to promote the efficient use of byproducts from the production of plant-based beverages, which still contain a large amount of nutritional and functional compounds, microbiological and chemical safety characteristics should be evaluated and, if needed, improved. Many challenges are associated with byproducts valorization, and the most important ones, which should be taken into account at the further steps of valorization, are biological and chemical safety. For safety improving, several technological treatments (biological, physical etc.) can be used. In this study, the influence of low-frequency ultrasonication (US) and fermentation with Lactobacillus casei LUHS210 strain, as phys…

Employer brand management: methodological aspects
2021
У статті обгрунтовано необхідність залучення зовнішніх ресурсів для управління брендом роботодавця. У роботі авторами було схематизовано процес прийняття рішення щодо обгрунтованого вибору компаній аутсорсерів. При цьому сформовано систему критеріїв здійснення такого вибору, що включає як вимоги до компанії-аутсорсера, так і вимоги до майбутнього проекту: рівень вдалих попередніх проектів; рівень задоволеності клієнтів; досвід роботи в Україні; середня вартість послуг аутсорсингової компанії з розробки проекту; термін розробки проекту; комплексність розроблених рекомендацій щодо просування бренду роботодавця; термін дії проекту; гнучкість проекту; рівень складності впровадження проекту; сер…
