Specialization in food production affects global food security and food systems sustainability
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
Understanding specialization patterns of countries in food production can provide relevant insights for the evaluation and design of policies seeking to achieve food security and sustainability, which are key to reach ...
Food networks in migrant families: mixed methods to analyze the relationship of ingredients and food consumption strategies in Argentina
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021-04)
This paper presents an analysis of food practice and representations of a particular migration process of rural families in South America that has moved, during the last 30 years, from Central Andean uplands to suburb ...
Characterisation of liquid food colour from digital images
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-12)
The characteristic colour of translucent liquid foods is defined as the colour values at infinite depth, where the liquid depth and the background effects are surpassed. A measurement cell with variable depth was built, ...
Sodium content in commonly consumed foods and its contribution to the daily intake
(MDPI, 2020-01)
Salt consumption in many countries of the world exceeds the level recommended by WHO (5 g/day), which is associated with negative effects on health. Public health strategies to achieve the WHO’s objectives include salt ...
Self-Assembled Carbohydrate Polymers for Food Applications: A Review
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-11)
The self-assembled natural and synthetic polymers are booming. However, natural polymers obtained from native or modified carbohydrate polymers (CPs), such as celluloses, chitosan, glucans, gums, pectins, and starches, ...
Determination of phenolic composition and antioxidant activity in fruits, rhizomes and leaves of the white strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis spp. chiloensis form chiloensis) using HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS and free radical quenching techniques
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2010-09)
A comparative analysis of methanol extracts from fruits, rhizomes and leaves of the Chilean white strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis spp. chiloensis var chiloensis) was performed by means of reversed phase high-performance ...
Economic Examples of Latent Budget AnalysisEconomic Examples of Latent Budget Analysis
(European Economics Letters GroupEuropean Economics Letters Group, 2013-12)
Latent budget analysis is a classification technique that allows clustering identification by using compositional data. This paper presents examples of how this technique deals with the unit-sum constraint by establishing ...
Self-assembled proteins for food applications: A review
(Elsevier Science London, 2020-04-18)
Background: The development of advanced food materials necessarily involves the building of well-known and oriented micro- and nanoarchitectures, which are obtained through the self-assembly of food grade (edible) ...
Sensitivity analysis using a model based on computational fluid dynamics, discrete element method and discrete phase model to study a food hydrofluidization system
(Elsevier, 2018-11)
A sensitivity analysis was performed to study a hydrofluidization system, using a previous partially validated model that considers multiple fluid immersed jets and moving food spheres. The inputs were the average velocity ...
Suspension feeders as natural sentinels of the spatial variability in food sources in an Antarctic fjord: A stable isotope approach
(Elsevier Science, 2020-08)
We examined the effect of glacial melt-related retreat environmental conditions on the spatial heterogeneity of food sources for Antarctic nearshore marine benthic communities of Potter Cove, a representative fjord on King ...
