Descriptive sensory analysis was used to characterize the flavor changes of peanuts during boiling. The attributes investigated were rawness, astringency, and bitterness. Samples of peanut sauce prepared with seed coating and without seed coating and taken at different cooking times (1, 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min) were compared. A descriptive panel (N = 16 peanuts with coating and N = 17 pea
This paper proposes an alternative semi-analytical Fourier modal method adapted for general periodic anisotropic gratings made of dielectrics with moderate to low index profiles corresponding to materials ranging from conventional dielectric 3D printing materials to ceramic materials. The proposed method is closely related to classical Rigorous Coupled-Wave Analysis built on scattering matrices, h
Cybersecurity has in recent years emerged as a paramount concern in the design and operation of industrial systems and civil infrastructures, due mainly to their susceptibility to malicious cyber attacks which take advantage of the vulnerability of communication networks and IT devices. In this paper, we investigate such an attack and counter attack scenario by considering multiagent systems, a so
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by dopaminergic neurodegeneration, α-Synuclein (α-Syn) pathology, and inflammation. Microglia in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) upregulate major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII), and variants in genes encoding MHCII affect PD risk. Additionally, elevated TNF levels and α-Syn-reactive T cells in circulation suggest a strong link betwee
Context Developing compilers and static analysis tools (“language tools”) is a difficult and time-consuming task. We have previously presented property probes, a technique to help the language tool developer build understanding of their tool. A probe presents a live view into the internals of the compiler, enabling the developer to see all the intermediate steps of a compilation or analysis rather
Background: Palliative care (PC) can alleviate suffering and improve quality of life. Yet, disparities persist, particularly in Honduras. Training efforts in PC for non-health caregivers have proven to reduce burnout and stress while enhancing the quality of life for both caregivers and patients. Purpose: This study aimed to explore the feasibility of a PC training program for non-health caregiver
Denna rapport utgör Klimatpolitiska rådets årliga utvärdering av regeringens samlade politik i förhållande till de klimatmål som beslutats av riksdag och regering.Del I är en utvärdering av hur regeringens politik har utvecklats under 2024 och har alltså en tidsmässig avgränsning. För att sätta den utvärderingen i ett sammanhang inleds texten men en kortfattad genomgång av nu gällande klimatmål oc
With the emergence of autonomous vehicles comes the requirement of adequate and rigorous testing, particularly in critical scenarios that are both challenging and potentially hazardous. Generating synthetic simulation-based critical scenarios for testing autonomous vehicles has therefore received considerable interest, yet it is unclear how such scenarios relate to the actual crash or near-crash s
INTRODUCTION: Hospital-acquired bloodstream infections (HA-BSIs) are severe and require antibiotic therapy. In non-complicated BSIs, shortened therapy reduces side effects without compromising efficacy. The impact of shortened antibiotic therapy in HA-BSI critically ill patients without indication of prolonged therapy requires further evaluation. METHODS: Using the international prospective EUROBA
Our viewpoint highlights the challenges faced by women in the Induced Polarization (IP) community (and elsewhere), particularly the persistent gender imbalance in scientific workshops. This underrepresentation in leadership roles, presentations and discussions reflects broader systemic biases in academia. By sharing the experience of the 7th IP workshop, where the organizing team made deliberate eff
Mental well-being and excessive alcohol consumption each represent a significant public health concern, and evidence suggests an association between them. Furthermore, drinking motivations associated with harmful drinking have been studied, but not systematically in the UK population. A representative sample of 6174 UK adults aged 18⁻75 were surveyed online. Low risk drinkers were found to have hi
Aims Endotypes integrate individual clinical and molecular data and can be used to formulate molecular subclassifications of diseases. We previously derived four endotypes of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in a large European cohort, c-IMT and c-IMT Progression as Predictors of Vascular Events in a High-Risk European Population (IMPROVE), identifying individuals with a specific cardiovascular
The saturation of the IJTAG concept and its approval as the IEEE 1687 standard in 2014 has generated a wave of research activities and created demand for a set of appropriate and challenging benchmarks. This paper presents such a set developed by an industrial and academic consortium and constructed in a way that facilitates objective comparison of experimental results across research groups as we
Background: In patients resuscitated after cardiac arrest, a higher mean arterial pressure (MAP) may increase cerebral perfusion and attenuate hypoxic brain injury. Here we present the protocol of the mean arterial pressure after cardiac arrest and resuscitation (MAP-CARE) trial aiming to investigate the influence of MAP targets on patient outcomes. Methods: MAP-CARE is one component of the Sedati
This paper proposes an alternative semi-analytical Fourier modal method adapted for general periodic anisotropic gratings made of dielectrics with moderate to low index profiles corresponding to materials ranging from conventional dielectric 3D printing materials to ceramic materials.

The 2022 edition of Lund Architecture Symposium (LAS22) will engage in (re)activating architectures. During recent years, architecture has frequently been used to communicate the ramifications of contemporary life and culture. Rarer is the communication of architecture’s role within these ramifications. Responding to this dilemma, this symposium will explore architecture that takes a much more act
When designing novel technology, many of the important design decisions tend to be taken early in the process, which is also when it is usually easier to modify the design. Thus, it is important to learn as much as possible, as early as possible in any design process. This work is carried out within the EU project ABILITY, which aims at developing novel refreshable tactile displays. Previously, we
A search for single production of a vector-like quark Q, which could be either a singlet T, with charge 23, or a Y from a (T, B, Y) triplet, with charge −43, is performed using data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The data correspond to the full integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1 recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. The anal
Traditionella, rörbaserade dagvattensystem räcker inte längre till i förtätade städer för att möta krav på vattenkvalitet och översvämningsskydd vid extrem nederbörd. Därför efterfrågas naturbaserade och multifunktionella lösningar, här omnämnda som blå-grön infrastruktur, som kan hantera flera samhällsutmaningar samtidigt.Implementeringen av sådana lösningar försvåras dock av många och ibland sam
