Abstract:
... Although the need to reduce the sugar content of processed products has been widely acknowledged, progress has been slow. So far, sugar reduction strategies have been targeted at minimizing the sensory changes associated with product reformulation, mainly through the use of non-nutritive sweeteners. However, emerging evidence has shown that we may have been following the wrong path by focusing on ...

Abstract:
... Sugar‐sweetened beverage (SSB) taxes have been proposed to discourage excessive sugar consumption, but it is unclear how high‐ versus low‐SSB purchasers respond to such taxes. We first examine heterogeneity in the purchase and financial effects of a national SSB tax across different types of households buying varying amounts of SSBs. We find high‐SSB purchasers are less responsive to SSB price cha ...

Abstract:
... Crystal size distribution (CSD) is important in evaluating crystal quality in cane sugar crystallization process. Due to the complex non‐linearity, time‐delay and strong coupling in cane sugar crystallization process, it is difficult to directly modeling in the mechanism of cane sugar crystallization process to obtain CSD parameters. In order to obtain two main CSD parameters so that to achieve be ...

Abstract:
... Chocolate is a product that has a high content of fat and sugar. The addition of fibers and polyphenols in chocolate is increasingly being applied and studied in recent years. Since chocolate is a food product that has sensitive rheological properties, any addition of components that are not part of the standard recipe may have a significant influence on physical, chemical and sensory properties. ...

However, these reaction pathways suggest that many noncanonical nucleotides are likely to have been generated alongside the standard ribonucleotides. Thus, the oligomerization of prebiotically synthesized nucleotides is ...
