Over the last decades, the legal protection of Geographical Indications (GIs) as a distinct formal sui generis Intellectual Property regime (IPR) have been subject to sharp trade disputes and opposition between the USA and the EU at the international level. Our study provides a detailed analysis of the discursive strategies and the policy and theor...

Consumer willingness to accept alternative meat products has been widely explored. However, few studies have explored the key factors driving and inhibiting willingness to try, buy and pay a price premium for plant-based proteins, fungal-based proteins and cultured muscle tissue. Therefore, the present study is dedicated to this research gap and pr...

An agroecological transition has today become a priority in the policy agenda due to the growing concerns about the negative environmental impacts of the mainstream agricultural model. Geographical indication (GI) systems are particularly concerned, being so strongly dependent on the characteristics of the terroir to which they are associated, espe...

Cultured meat is a relatively new product, enjoying consumer appreciation as a more sustainable meat option. The present study builds on a sample from a diverse set of countries and continents, including China, the US, the UK, France, Spain, Netherlands, New Zealand, Brazil, and the Dominican Republic and uses partial least square structural equati...

Cultured meat, as a product of recent advancement in food technology, might become a viable alternative source of protein to traditional meat. As such, cultured meat production is disruptive as it has the potential to change the demand for traditional meats. Moreover, it has been claimed it can be more sustainable regarding the environment and that...

Insects as an alternative protein source has gained traction for its advantageous environmental impact. Despite being part of many traditional food cultures, insects remain a novelty in Western cultures and a challenging concept for many. Even though plant-based protein alternatives are not facing the same barriers, product unfamiliarity and limite...

Organic products are vulnerable to fraud due to their premium price. Analytical methodology helps to manage the risk of fraud and due to the miniaturization of equipment, tests may nowadays even be rapidly applied on-site. The current study aimed to evaluate portable near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in combination with chemometrics to distinguish...

Abstract Surfactant solution flow behavior is of great importance to both the chemical and consumer product industries. Most studies on the flow behavior of surfactant solutions, however, have focused on the dilute regime. Seldom reported is rheology in the highly concentrated regime where typically these surfactants are processed and delivered. Fi...

We propose a state diagram of charged disk-like mineral particle (Laponite) dispersions as a function of the Laponite concentration (C) and the concentration of added salt (C(s)), based on simple observation and light-scattering measurements. At low C or high C(s) the dispersions separate into two domains due to sedimentation of Laponite aggregates...

The influence of pyrophosphate or polyethylene oxide (PEO) on the aggregation and gelation of dispersions of model disklike clay particles (Laponite) is studied using light scattering and rheology. Pyrophosphate adsorbs onto the positively charged rim and inhibits bond formation between the rim and the negatively charged faces of the particles. At...

The hydroxyl end groups of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) have been transformed easily and quantitatively into amino groups via the Mitsunobu reaction. Phthalimide was alkylated with PEGs and the hydrazinolysis of the resulting phthalimido‐PEGs gave the amino compounds in high yields. Quaternization of the amino groups leads to hydrophilic polymer cha...

This study deals with aqueous Laponite suspensions. The origin of gel formation has been determined by modifying interactions between particles with added salt (NaCl) or sodium pyrophosphate which slows down the aggregation of particles and with an adsorbed polymer layer (PEO). Different techniques (visual observations, static and dynamic light sca...
