Abstract:
... Extending the logic of processing fluency into the domain of food and beverage perceptions, this study explores whether the fluency of brand names can influence consumer perceptions of bottled-water attributes such as purity, taste, and mineral contents. Forty-four participants, who were presented with twelve unknown foreign brand names of bottled water, indicated their perceptions of water based ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Computed tomography (CT) has been used to estimate body composition and determine tissue distribution in dogs, despite limited validation. This may introduce error into estimates of body composition studies and its effect on health in dogs. Further, the modality has not been validated against dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or over a wide range of dog breeds, ages and sexes. The ...

Abstract:
... Acid whey from Greek-style yogurt (GAW) has become abundantly available in recent years. Due to its low solids content, low pH, high lactose and mineral content, GAW is challenging to transport and process. In this study, a combination of reverse osmosis (RO) and forward osmosis (FO) was developed for the nonthermal concentration of GAW. Permeate flux, retentate concentration, and specific energy ...
