Jeandot, Chrystel. "Ce que l'information en continu fait à l'information. Le cas de BFMTV." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016USPCA156.
Full textIf 24-hour news channels today seem to constitute an established television genre, the type of information that they provide leaves many questions open concerning both the re-presentation of information and the latter’s very nature. Because the 24-hour news channel BFMTV incarnates those critical questions, it seems relevant, more than ten years after its creation, to examine the model of information that it provides. Moreover, in the context of media convergence, this channel is now transmitted on several platforms that evolve according to the user's practices and existing technical possibilities. This fact leads to a further examination of how the channel develops a relationship, through its technical possibilities, with its users. Deploying a pragmatic approach, this thesis aims to achieve a better understanding of what is at stake in continuous news cycles and also of the impact that the latter have on information in general

Full textThe international law commission has proposed the codification of the concept of state continued wrongful fact as one which can be to the origin of state responsability. This proposal, issued by professor roberto ago, is so original that there are a few international juridictions which are qualified some state actions or abstentions as continued wrongful fact. We can assert that this notion is realy specific and its juridical regim also so, where can we find the specific caracters of that notion? this study deals with some originalities of this concept and the particular rules which can be applied to its regim

Full textIn one sense the adjective systemic means what is “relating to or involving a whole system”. With this definition as reference, this study concerns the (dys)functioning of domestic legal systems from an international perspective. The word systematic refers also, in human rights matters, to what is practiced “on a large scale” revealing the absence of care and the absence of rationality in the legal sense, and which can be measured in terms of procedures and legal obligations. These two definitions of the word systemic represent two principal aspects of our research, as they are linked to eachother. In studying international jurisprudence related to human rights matters, our research aims, on one hand, to build a category of violations that we designate as systemic and to demonstrate the particularity of their legal treatment. On the other hand, we will demonstrate the manner in which human rights jurisdictions adapt to this type of violations. Finally, there is the aim of illustrating the specificity of international liability of the state arising from systemic violations

This thesis describes the development of a new milk dispenser product that is designed to dispense milk with varying levels of milk fat content. The product contains two tanks of milk, one containing skim and one containing whole. The user can rotate a dial to select which type of milk they want (skim, 1%, 2%, whole) and the product is able to mix the skim and whole milk at the appropriate ratio to dispense the desired type of milk. A prototype was developed that uses two, gallon-size milk jugs, each attached to a flexible tube at the cap interface. The flexible tubes passes through a ratio selection mechanism that the user can rotate to select the desired type of milk. The mechanism compresses the tubes to achieve the appropriate ratio, and finally the tubes pass on through to a dispensing valve. The prototype was tested using clear water in one tank, and colored water in the other to visually observe how well the product mixes. The final prototype was able to mix quite appropriate ratios with sufficient precision in milk fat ratios.

Full textLa tesis se compone de tres estudios que se realizaron con el fin de disminuir el coste analítico que supone la determinación rutinaria de la grasa intramuscular (GIM) y del ácido oleico, así cómo de investigar los mecanismos biológicos de la deposición de la grasa. En el primer estudio se desarrolló un método analítico de alto rendimiento para la cuantificación del ácido oleíco en carne de cerdo usando un sistema de análisis por inyección de flujo basado en una espectrometría de masas con ionización por electrospray. El nuevo método, el cual permite una cuantificación rápida del contenido en oleico en muestras pequeñas, podría ser adecuado para la clasificación de cerdos y canales por su contenido en oleico. El segundo estudio evalúa el uso de indicadores lipídicos en suero cómo biomarcadores de la composición y contenido de la GIM y la grasa subcutánea a edades tempranas. Ninguno de los indicadores lipídicos investigados se recomiendan que se usen cómo un biomarcador precoz de la grasa. El último estudio examinó el efecto de la selección contra grasa dorsal a constante GIM sobre la expresión proteíca hepática, y la composición de ácidos grasos en hígado, músculo y grasa subcutánea. Se concluye que el patrón de expresión proteíca hepática en cerdos es afectada por la selección contra grasa dorsal.
The thesis comprises of three studies, with the aim at decreasing the cost of routinely intramuscular fat (IMF) and acid oleic determinations, as well as investigating the biological mechanisms of fat deposition. In the first study, it was developed a high-throughput analytical method for oleic fatty acid quantification in pork using a flow injection analysis system based on electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry. The new method, which allows for a rapid quantification of oleic content in small pork samples, may be used as a suitable method for ranking pigs and carcasses by oleic content. The second study assesses the usefulness of serum lipid indicators as early biomarkers of IMF and subcutaneous fat content and composition. None of the serum lipid indicators investigated is recommended to be used as an early biomarker of fatness. The last study examined the effect of selection against backfat thickness at constant IMF on hepatic protein expression and fatty acid composition in liver, muscle, and subcutaneous fat. It is concluded that hepatic protein expression pattern in pigs is affected by selection for decreased backfat thickness.

Full textEach person can be victim of a content put online via internet. The indemnification requires a civil liability lawsuit against one or several internet operators. However, the modalities to actually sue them keep evolving. Indeed, although a legal framework already exists, technological evolutions generate new types of operators. The latest evolution consists in the Web 2. 0. The static internet turned into an interactive, and therefore dynamic one. Its main added value is to have transformed the websurfer from a simple reader to an actual operator. Nevertheless, the use of pseudonyms can make their identification difficult. The Web 2. 0 has also created a new category of operators: the services providers. Their legal integration leads to the question of their qualification, as they are not, from a first viewpoint, ruled by pre-existing legal categories. But new internet operators' legal treatment will necessarily consist in a sensible enforcement of the common law. In parallel with the analysis of the personal liability regime, this research will also consider the possibility to sue the liable person on the basis on liability for things. In either case, it is crucial to ensure coherence between the liability regime and the material activities

Full textTwo objects of the popular culture – criminal news items and television – are combined in this study and analyzed under a double perspective. Criminal events concerns first a whole profession which, from the reporter to the judicial columnist, organizes and professionalizes itself according to the political, social, cultural and media changes. Thus, this research intends to explore the field of journalistic practices and, through the observation of a « minor » feature of information, brings a contribution to the history of French journalism. Because the screen reflects an image of an evolving society, and because criminal news items most particularly mirror the collective anxieties, the real or fantasized fears which question and perpetually redefine the regulating norms of societies, this work also links in a same historical perspective the problematic of representations, by observing the main figures of the threat setting in the narratives. In the wake of a recent and rich historiography about the genre “Fait-divers”, which reveals the dynamism of Cultural History in France, this study aims to show most distinctly, through the long-lasting light, the television’s specificity in the manufacturing of the criminal event, considering television’s image as a central material

Full textObjective: To determine the association between the dietary fat knowledge and consumption of foods rich in fat among first-year students in self-catering residence at a university of technology, Cape Town, South Africa. Design: The two concepts – the dietary fat knowledge (represented by dietary fat food knowledge and dietary fat nutrition knowledge) and the consumption of foods rich in fat – were assessed separately. Two norm-referenced, valid and reliable knowledge tests and an intake screening questionnaire were used for the assessments (as subsidiary objectives), before the associations between the concepts were determined (main objective). The dietary fat food and nutrition knowledge as assessed was categorised in the range poor or below average, average and good or above average, and the consumption of foods rich in fat as high, quite high, the typical Western diet, approaching low or desirable. The Pearson‟s chi-square test was applied to these categorical findings to determine if associations (five percent significance) existed between the concepts. Results: The stratified sample included 225 first-year students. Nearly half (48.4%) of them achieved an average fat food knowledge score, while the majority (80.9%) achieved a poor fat nutrition knowledge score. More than half (52.5%) either followed a typical Western diet, a diet quite high in fat or high in fat. While no significant (p > 0.05) association was found between the students‟ dietary fat food knowledge and consumption of foods rich in fat, significant results were found in the association between the students‟ dietary fat nutrition knowledge and consumption of foods rich in fat (p < 0.05) and between their fat food knowledge and fat nutrition knowledge (p < 0.001). Conclusions: An inverse association was found between the students‟ dietary fat nutrition knowledge and fat consumption, a positive association between their dietary fat food knowledge and dietary fat nutrition knowledge, and no association between their dietary fat food knowledge and fat consumption.

Full textThe objective of this thesis was: (1) to test if Spanish consumers associate intramuscular fat (IMF) content with acceptability of pork meat; (2) to increase IMF through nutritional strategies (supplementation with conjugated linoleic acid, reduction of vitamin A, reduction of protein, lysine, supplementation with arginine and leucine). Results showed that from the point of view of taste, consumers prefer the meat with a high IMF content. An increase of IMF was observed when dietary protein or lysine were reduced (without modifying lysine or protein content, respectively) in a fatter but not in a leaner genotype. It can be concluded that modification of IMF content through the diet depends on the genotype, and that changes in dietary protein and lysine levels elicit the greatest response.

Full textEsta tesis doctoral es parte de una línea de investigación sobre la mejora genética de la calidad de la carne en porcino. Uno de los recientes objetivos incluido en algunas líneas paternas seleccionadas para mercados de calidad es lograr un nivel óptimo de grasa intramuscular y de composición en ácidos grasos sin penalizar el crecimiento magro. Esta tesis comprende cuatro estudios realizados en una línea pura de cerdos Duroc destinados a la producción de cárnicos de alta calidad. Los experimentos se diseñaron con el objetivo de comprender mejor la variabilidad genética subyacente en el contenido de grasa y la composición en ácidos grasos e identificar marcadores potenciales a la selección. El primer estudio examinó los parámetros genéticos de la ruta del ácido linoleico (C18:2) al ácido araquidónico (C20:4). En particular, se demostró que se espera que la selección del valor absoluto de C18:2 proporcione una respuesta similar a la selección por grasa intramuscular a grasa dorsal restringida. Estos hallazgos llevaron a investigar el gen de la desaturasa-2 de los ácidos grasos (FADS2), como gen candidato para la ruta del C18:2. Por lo tanto, el segundo estudio evaluó los efectos de una variante (el polimorfismo rs321384923 se usó como marcador) en el promotor del gen FADS2. Los resultados mostraron que este polimorfismo afecta el perfil de ácidos grasos n-6 al aumentar la eficiencia de desaturación de C18:2 a C20:4. Además, se evaluó la asociación de los genes de las perilipinas (PLIN) y el gen de la proteína de unión a guanilato 1 (GBP1) con caracteres de crecimiento y de calidad de la carne. De este modo, el tercer estudio examinó los efectos de dos polimorfismos en PLIN1 y PLIN2, relacionados con la deposición y la movilización de lípidos. Los resultados indicaron que el polimorfismo rs333231747 en PLIN2 se asocia con el crecimiento temprano y con el peso magro. El último estudio mostró que GBP1 tiene dos señales de poliadenilación activas y que su uso depende del genotipo rs80800372. Los cerdos portadores del alelo G, asociado con una menor viremia después de la infección por el virus reproductivo y respiratorio porcino, tenían transcritos más largos y una menor expresión génica. En condiciones no epidémicas, el alelo G aumentó el contenido de grasa intramuscular pero disminuyó el peso magro. El contenido de C18:2 y los marcadores genéticos investigados se pueden usar para diseñar estrategias de selección adecuadas para mejorar la calidad de la carne y el crecimiento magro.
This PhD dissertation is part of a research line on the genetic improvement of pork quality. One of the latest goals to be included in some sire lines selected for premium markets is to achieve an optimum level of intramuscular fat and fatty acid composition without penalizing lean growth performance. This thesis is comprised of four studies conducted on a purebred Duroc line used for producing high-quality meat products. The experiments were designed with the aim to better understand the genetic variability underlying fat content and fatty acid compostion and to identify potential markers for breeding. The first study examined the genetic parameters of the linoleic acid (C18:2) to arachidonic acid (C20:4) pathway. In particular, it was showed that selection for the absolute value of C18:2 is expected to deliver a similar response outcome as selection for intramuscular fat at restrained backfat thickness. These findings led to investigate the fatty acid desaturase-2 (FADS2) gene, as a candidate gene for C18:2 metabolism route. Thus, the second study evaluated the effects of a variant (rs321384923 was used as a tag single nucleotide polymorphism) in the promoter of the FADS2 gene. Results showed that this polymorphism affects the n-6 fatty acid profile by enhancing the desaturation efficiency of C18:2 to C20:4. Additionally, the association of perilipin (PLIN) genes and guanylate-binding protein-1 (GBP1) gene with growth and meat quality traits was assessed. Thus, the third study examined the effects of two polymorphisms in PLIN1 and PLIN2, which have been related to lipid storage and mobilization. Results indicated that the rs333231747 polymorphism on PLIN2 is associated to early growth and lean weight. The last study showed that GBP1 has two active polyadenylation signals and that their usage depends on the rs80800372 genotype. The pigs carrying the G allele, which has been associated with lower viraemia after porcine reproductive and respiratory virus infection, had longer transcripts and lower gene expression. In non-epidemic conditions, the G allele increased intramuscular fat content but decreased lean weight. Linoleic acid content and the investigated genetic markers can be used to design appropriate selection strategies to enhance meat quality and lean growth.

Full textLa teneur en matières grasses du porc affecte la saveur de la viande de porc. Dans l'industrie porcine, la graisse intramusculaire (GIM) et la cote de persillage (CP) sont deux propriétés qui déterminent la teneur en gras du porc. Les méthodes conventionnelles de détermination ne sont pas adaptées aux besoins actuels de l'industrie car elles sont destructrices ou subjectives. Cette étude porte sur l'utilisation de l'imagerie hyperspectrale dans l'évaluation de la teneur en graisse intramusculaire et du persillage du porc. Les effets de la répartition de la graisse intramusculaire le long du muscle Longissmus, de la congélation, du dégel et de l'analyse de la forme pour le traitement de l'image ont été pris en compte. Une technique d'imagerie hyperspectrale proche infrarouge (IR) allant de 900 à 1700 nm a été utilisée pour prédire le GIM ou la CP. La viande fraîche au niveau de la 3ème/4ème côte du porc a été utilisée pour recueillir les images hyperspectrales. Des analyses de la forme fondée sur les techniques du filtre de Gabor, du détecteur linéaire à large spectre (WLD) et de la matrice de cooccurrence de niveau gris améliorée (GLCM) ont été étudiées et les propriétés de l'image, i.e spectre, texture et propriétés des lignes, ont été extraites. La régression linéaire multiple (RLM) a été utilisée pour développer des modèles de prédiction. Pour la cote persillage, le modèle de RLM utilisant la moyenne de spectre filtrée pour la première dérivée de Gabor a le mieux performé avec une précision de calibration de 0,90 aux longueurs d'onde de 961, 1186 et 1220 nm. Pour le GIM, une précision de calibration de 0.85 a été obtenue avec un spectre moyen de base à 1207 et 1279 nm. La distribution du contenu de GIM a été illustrée. Les résultats démontrent la possibilité d'utiliser les images hyperspectralces proche IR pour évaluer rapidement et de façon non-destructive le taux de gras intramusculaire du porc. En ce qui concerne le persillage en tant qu'indice visuel, une méthode objective d'évaluation de la cote persillage utilisant des images rouge-vert-bleu (RGB) a été développée en appliquant un WLD basé sur un model linéaire au canal vert. La possibilité d'un contrôle non-destructif du GIM et de la CP utilisant du porc congelé et décongelé a été étudiée. Une précision de la prédiction de 0.90 pour la CP a été réalisée avec du porc congelé. Une précision de la prédiction de 0.82 pour le GIM découle du porc décongelé. Le potentiel du porc congelé et décongelé pour l'évaluation de la cote de persillage et du porc décongelé pour l'évaluation de la teneur en gras intramusculaire a été démontré. Outre l'effet du gel et du dégel, la variation du GIM et de la CP à travers les sept derniers muscles thoraciques Longissmus a été étudiée. Les relations entre le GIM et la CP à la dernière côte et les propriétés correspondantes aux autres côtes et au filet ont été déterminées avec précision. La relation entre les images de proche IR à l'extrémité et le niveau de GIM du porc six dernières côtes thoraciques a été étudiée. Des relations étroite ont été déterminées, en particulier entre les images de l'extrémité de la côte et les taux de GIM aux 2eme/3eme dernières côtes et la 2eme dernière côte.

This dissertation describes the design and evaluation of the Fast, Flexible Forwarding system (F3), a distributed system for disseminating information to networked subscribers. It examines existing subscription approaches, proposes F3 as an alternative to these approaches, and presents results from comparisons of F3 and other subscription approaches. Existing subscription approaches examined in the dissertation fall into three categories: unicast, single-identifier multicast, and content-based multicast systems. Careful examination of these approaches suggests that none is able to support complex subscription requests from large numbers of subscribers at high data rates. F3, the systems proposed as an alternative, shares many features with other multicast systems. Like many multicast systems, for example, F3 uses an overlay network of routers to distribute messages to subscribers. F3 differs from other systems, however, in its use of preprocessors to analyze messages before routing begins. Preprocessors carry out analyses of the relationships between subscription topics, and store the results in special content graph data-structures. Preprocessors share the results of their analyses by distributing content graphs to routers in the F3 network. Using content graphs, F3 routers can determine the relationships between subscriptions and notifications more efficiently than in previous approaches. Four studies compared performance of F3 and competing subscription systems. In the four studies, subscription systems handled such tasks as disseminating baseball scores, distributing traffic alerts, and disseminating generic subscriptions formatted as attribute-value pairs.
(cont.) The four studies examined system performance in both simulated network environments and on a working router. Performance characteristics examined in the studies included size of forwarding tables and processing speeds at routers. Results from these experiments showed that F3 does not overproduce messages, as do unicast systems. F3 also outperformed single-identifier multicast systems in such areas as message production, table size, and subscription overhead. The most significant finding of the studies, however, was that F3 processing speed surpassed the speed of a state-of-the-art content-based system by orders of magnitude in scenarios with large numbers of subscribers. Overall, these results suggest that F3 is a promising development in the area of Internet subscription systems.

Full textEl contenido y la composición en ácidos grasos de la grasa intramuscular (GIM) afectan la calidad de la carne de cerdo. En particular, aumentar el contenido de ácido oleico (C18:1) mejoraría su calidad en cuanto a atributos organolépticos y tecnológicos y propiedades nutricionales. Esta tesis doctoral forma parte de una línea de investigación del Grupo de Mejora Genética del Porcino de la Universitat de Lleida, con el objetivo final de encontrar estrategias para mejorar genéticamente la calidad de la carne de cerdo a través de GIM y C18:1. Se divide en tres partes. La Parte 1 discute las implicaciones de aplicar un enfoque estadístico específico para datos composicionales para analizar estos caracteres. Se mostró que, como la variabilidad de la composición de la grasa de la carne de cerdo es baja, las técnicas estadísticas estándares sobre porcentajes brutos son suficientemente robustas para la mayoría de análisis, incluyendo los que se realizan a continuación. En la Parte 2, en una línea Duroc, se estimó que GIM y C18:1 tienen una heredabilidad alta similar (0.51−0.56, para GIM, y 0.44−0.50, para C18:1) y una correlación favorable entre ellos (0.47). Además, existen escenarios de selección en que estos caracteres y el crecimiento magro se pueden mejorar simultáneamente. Se demostró experimentalmente que (1) GIM y C18:1 responden a la selección basada en valores de mejora a partir de datos fenotípicos de parientes, y (2) el espesor de grasa dorsal se puede modificar independientemente de GIM y C18:1. No obstante, la selección por GIM y C18:1 basada en datos tomados en un músculo tiene respuestas correlacionadas desiguales en otros músculos y tejidos adiposos. En la Parte 3 se analizaron las variaciones de la secuencia del gen estearoil-CoA desaturasa (SCD), que codifica el enzima limitante en la biosíntesis de C18:1. Se mostró que hay una variante funcional en el gen SCD con un efecto aditivo de +0.75% en C18:1 y +1.00% en contenido total de ácidos grasos monoinsaturados, pero sin efecto en GIM o engrasamiento de la canal. Esta asociación se confirmó en un estudio de asociación genómica que también reveló variaciones de nucleótidos en el locus del gen del receptor de la leptina (LEPR) que afectan el nivel de engrasamiento y, en consecuencia, la composición de la grasa. El uso marcadores en estos dos loci mejoró substancialmente la precisión en las predicciones de GIM y C18:1. Se concluye que es posible seleccionar con éxito por GIM y C18:1 en carne de cerdo y se discuten varios escenarios sobre como implementar esta selección en la práctica.
Intramuscular fat (IMF) content and fatty acid composition affect the quality of pork. In particular, increasing oleic acid (C18:1) content would improve pork quality in terms of organoleptic and technological attributes and also of nutritional properties. This thesis dissertation is part of a line of research conducted by the Pig Breeding and Genetics Group of the University of Lleida, with the aim of finding strategies to genetically improve pork quality by increasing IMF and C18:1. It is divided into three parts. Part 1 discusses the implications of applying a specific statistical approach for compositional data to analyze these traits. It is shown that, because of the low variability of fatty acid composition in pork, the standard statistical techniques on raw percentages are robust enough for most genetic analyses, including those performed next. In Part 2, the genetic parameters associated to IMF and C18:1 were estimated in a purebred Duroc line. Both traits have a similar high heritability (0.51−0.56, for IMF, and 0.44−0.50, for C18:1) and a favorable genetic correlation between them (0.47). Furthermore, there exist selection scenarios where these traits and lean growth can be improved simultaneously. It was proved experimentally that (1) IMF and C18:1 respond effectively to selection on estimated breeding values based on phenotypic data of relatives, and (2) backfat thickness can be modified independently of IMF and C18:1. However, selection for IMF and C18:1 based on records from one muscle has unequal correlated responses on other muscles and fat tissues. In Part 3, the sequence variation of the stearoyl- CoA desaturase (SCD) gene, the gene producing the rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of C18:1, was analyzed. It was shown that there is a functional variant in the promoter of the SCD gene with an average additive effect of +0.75% and +1.00% on C18:1 and total monounsaturated fatty acids, respectively, but no effect on IMF or carcass fatness. This was confirmed in a genome-wide association study which also revealed nucleotide variations in the leptin receptor (LEPR) gene locus affecting overall fatness and, as a result, fat composition. The use markers at both loci substantially enhanced the accuracy of prediction of IMF and C18:1. It is concluded that it is possible to successfully select for increased IMF and C18:1 in pork. In light of the results obtained several scenarios are discussed on how to implement such selection in practice.

Full textThe aim of the report is to compile and compare different edible macroalgaes from the Rhodophyta, Phaeophyta and Chlorophyta divisions by their nutritional content. This in order to analyze if the algaes have potential for expanded use on the food market and as a substitute for animal protein sources. To achieve the aim, the nutritional content of the algaes will be compiled on the basis of protein, carbohydrate and fat content through a data collection of previous research. This bachelor thesis is a study of literature, where only journal articles and scientific reports are used. The algaes nutritional values are then compared to values for seven reference products, that are used as protein sources on the food market today. The report shows that the algal species from the Rhodophyta division have the highest protein content, and that algae from the other divisions show protein contents higher than most of the reference values. The reviewed algaes generally have good qualifications to substitute many of the reference products and therefore, as regards the nutritional content, big potential for expanded use within the food industry.

Full textConsidering both science and popular science, sustainability is a concept of diverse meanings. Scientific research concerning sustainability has a particular focus on plotting causal links. Only a few studies focus on plotting and exploring the concept of sustainability as it is being conveyed by businesses via communication in corporate sustainability reports. Within the accounting field, there is a common demand for a principles-based and conceptual approach. Thus, while our literature review shows scientific research on sustainability has given limited attention to this approach, there are vast opportunities to contribute to this field by enhancing the comprehension of this issue. Consequently, the aim of this study is to explore the way in which the concept of sustainability is communicated and hence constructed by fast fashion businesses. As there is a distinction between practice and communication, this study merely focuses on the communication aspect.We have conducted a qualitative content analysis based on corporate sustainability reports issued by fast fashion corporations. The study applies a cross-sectional design and a theoretical sampling technique coupled with top-of-mind associations. In total, three corporations were included in this study, resulting in a sample of three corporate sustainability reports from the reporting year of 2013. During the analysis, an abductive approach inspired by a foucauldian perspective was applied. The theoretical model was elaborated on the basis of previous research and academic literature on the definition of sustainability and it served as an initial structure for categorization of the empirical observations.Our findings indicate that companies portray a clear focus on gradual adjustment and conformity to various codes as well as regulations, which leads to the conclusion that companies included in this study construct sustainability in terms of skills rather than wisdom. Furthermore, our findings point to the conclusion that elements of weak sustainability are more prominent than elements of strong sustainability in corporate sustainability reports. However, a notable finding is the existence of a sliding scale between these paradigms. As opposed to other studies regarding the construction of sustainability, this study focuses on a certain business concept (i.e. fast fashion) exploring the communication and construction of the concept sustainability. The contribution of our study is an evolution of the model in terms of a sliding scale and increased conceptual understanding of the term sustainability. We argue a sliding scale between weak and strong sustainability should be taken into account, while previous studies have presented their findings solely as dichotomies.This paper is written in Swedish.

Full textBackground: In France, the National Nutrition and Health Programme (“Programme National Nutrition Santé” or “PNNS”) is in charge of implementing the recommendations aiming at reducing salt, sugar and fat quantities in foods. However, the extent to which this might impact children’s food preferences and intake is limited. Objective: The present work aimed at understanding the impact of varying salt, sugar and fat variations in foods, on toddlers and children’s food preferences and intake. Methods: Studies were conducted in toddlers’ and children’s natural eating environment (nursery and school canteen), at their usually scheduled lunch and/or snack times. Results: Concerning sucrose, the addition of a low amount seems enough to trigger intake; thus, sucrose can be reduced without affecting food preferences and intake. As far as fat is concerned, suppressing or adding butter did not have an immediate impact on toddlers’ green beans or pasta intake. Besides, low-fat products seem to be well accepted by toddlers and adults. Concerning salt, its reduction seems more puzzling and should be considered cautiously. Our results highlighted dissociation between the direct positive effect of salt on food preferences and intake, and its role on learning. Conclusions: Food sensory qualities are important for eating behaviour. Although it seems that reductions of sugar and fat in foods are possible, thus helping to reduce energy intake, those concerning salt should be considered cautiously
