Exercising exclusions: Space, visibility, and monitoring of the exercising fat female body
2019
The author’s aim is to inspect the position of the fat (female) body in the field of exercise. Specifically, the author is interested in fat women’s experiences of their treatment while exercising in public, and argues that, in particular, public spaces for exercise, such as gyms and swimming pools, are currently discursively and concretely constructed as “exclusive” spaces for the normative bodied. Bodies that are deemed non-normative, such as fat bodies, are often made either invisible or intolerable in the discourse of physical activity and exercise. Consequently, public spaces for exercise such as gyms or swimming pools are seen as out of bounds for non-normative bodies and this is refl…

Six points à retenir sur les déterminants de la "juste" portion [expertise pour Nestlé]
2021
Membres du comité d'experts ayant participé à la réflexion :Sandrine Monnery-Patris ; Pascale Hebel ; Ghislain Grodard ; Thibaut de Saint Pol et Marie-Josèphe Amiot-Carlin Référence interne : EAPP; Nestlé a initié une réflexion avec un comité d'experts pluridisciplinaires indépendants pour identifier et comprendre les déterminants de la portion, levier essentiel, mais complexe, pour réguler la prise alimentaire.La synthèse de leurs réflexions s’articule en 6 points clés, soutenus par une analyse de la littérature scientifique, qui sont : • Une portion ni normée, ni injonctive• Une portion réaliste• Une portion personnalisée• Une portion associée à l’hédonisme• Une portion qui intègre les as…
Expression and characterization of the human sweet taste receptor expressed in a mammalian inducible cell line
2018
International audience; Sweet taste perception is mediated by a heterodimeric receptor composed of the two distinct protein subunits, TAS1R2 and TAS1R3. TAS1R2 and TAS1R3 subunits are members of the small family of class C GPCRs. Class C GPCRs share a large N-terminal domain (NTD) linked to the heptahelical transmembrane domain by a cysteine-rich region. TAS1R2/TAS1R3 is the primary receptor for a diverse range of sweet compounds including natural sugars, sweet amino acids, artificial sweeteners and plant sweet-tasting proteins. In order to understand the molecular mechanisms that govern receptor – ligand interactions and the relative contribution of the two subunits to the detection of swe…

Creation of a food taste database using an in-home profile method
2013
Poster (1 page) ; http://www.pangborn2013.com/; International audience; The purpose of this study was to create a food taste database using an innovative in-home profile method and to have an overview on the sensory sapid world we face in our diet. The intensity of salty, sweet, acid and bitter tastes were scored using universal scales proposed within the Spectrum™ method (Muñoz and Civille, 1992) and newly developed scales for umami taste and fattiness. The in-home taste profile method was composed of two phases. The first phase consisted in an intensive training in laboratory (55 h). The second one was the in-home measurements phase (8 months) during which 12 panellists had to rate the ta…
