Fresh and sun-dried faba beans (Vicia faba L.) were cooked, stored for various times at 4°C and analysed for available starch (AS), resistant starch (RS) and fibre-associated resistant starch (FARS) contents as well as α-amylolysis. Fresh beans required a shorter cooking time (25 min) than dried beans (158 min). Cooked fresh faba beans had a higher AS content than cooked dried faba beans. The AS c

This chapter addresses the politics of water and the interplay between depoliticisation, technocracy and peacebuilding. Water scarcity is often framed with a dual emphasis on the conflictual and cooperative dimensions. Hence, water is an important and prioritised area of environmental peacebuilding (Conca and Dabelko 2002). At the same time, there is something puzzling about the interaction betwee

This article responds to previous efforts to calculate diplomatic prestige while adapting these methodologies to the exigencies of digital diplomacy. In particular, we are interested in how digital diplomacy provides opportunities for diplomatic actors lacking in material resources to overcome prestige deficits. We adapt approaches used in earlier studies to calculate the material and ideational c

Planning and execution of large infrastructure projects benefit from detailed mapping of the subsurface through geophysical methods. However applying geophysical methods in an urban environment requires careful preparation to ensure success in areas where source of noise and present infrastructure may compromise the results. We present and discuss the results of a seismic investigation conducted i

Under slutet av 1500-talet och början av 1600-talet utgjorde La Rochelle den viktigaste reformerta enklaven i Frankrike. I denna artikel studerar jag hur religionsstriderna, både de faktiska händelserna och de olika rykten som cirkulerade, framträdde i den reformerta prästen Jacques Merlins anteckningar från 1589 till 1620.

BACKGROUND: The number of adolescents who use caffeine is constantly increasing. As juvenile age is vulnerable, it is reasonable to expect that they will differently perceive reason and react to caffeine use than adults, and be more prone to unwanted physiological and psychological consequences of its consumption.AIM: Analysis of the scope and pattern of caffeine consumption among adolescents in S

In this article, I outline the foundations of a consistent and systematic approach to conceptualizing communities in action-oriented sustainability research. More specifically, I develop a conceptual heuristic based on key questions related to ontology, epistemology, methodology and motivation that should be useful for researchers regarding the process of initiating, clarifying and reporting on re

We apply spectral stability theory to investigate nonlinear gravity waves in the atmosphere. These waves are determined by modulation equations that result from Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin theory. First, we establish that plane waves, which represent exact solutions to the inviscid Boussinesq equations, are spectrally stable with respect to their nonlinear modulation equations under the same conditi

AIM: Although metformin treatment has been reported to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes, the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated fully. Here we assessed atherosclerotic lesion formation in newly established 2 mouse lines with different blood glucose levels (Oikawa-Nagao Diabetes-Prone [ON-DP] and -Resistant [ON-DR]) to evaluate the effect of metf

Thefirst reported applications of laser sheet imaging for the study of atomizing sprays date from the mid 1980th.Since those early tries, blurring effects from the light being scattered multiple times by the surrounding dropletswere already observed and reported. While s trategies in suppressing part of this multiple light scatteringcontribution, were known for transmission imaging (e. spatial Fou
