The Unintended Consequences of Sugar‐Sweetened Beverage Taxes on Sales and Prices of Beer Beverages
ABSTRACT This paper estimates the causal effect of Berkeley's sugar‐sweetened beverage (SSB) tax on beer purchases and prices using retail scanner data from 2014 to 2015. Applying both synthetic control and difference‐in‐differences (DID) approaches, we find that the tax reduced beer purchases within Berkeley by 8.9%, while having a negligible effect ...

Ten-dimensional lifts of global supersymmetry on curved spaces
Admissible curved space backgrounds for four-dimensional supersymmetric field theories are determined by solving Killing spinor equations of four-dimensional off-shell supergravities.

Abstract Background Cassava leaves are a major byproduct of cassava processing and have a low utilization rate. In this study, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Bacillus subtilis were used for solid‐state fermentation of cassava leaves to improve their feed quality. Results After 48 h of fermentation, the feed pH decreased to

D-Branes in Curved Space [PDF]
This thesis is a study of D-branes in string compactifications. In this context, D-branes are relevant as an important component of the nonperturbative spectrum, as an incisive probe of these backgrounds, and as a natural stringy tool for localizing ...

Abstract The dietary and lifestyle practices have predominantly compromised human health, which are influenced by modernization and industrialization. Hypercholesterolemia, caused by the consumption of fatty and fried foods and a sedentary lifestyle, is a major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease and commonly coexists with obesity ...

The different faces of branes in double field theory
We show how the Wess-Zumino terms of the different branes in string theory can be embedded within double field theory. Crucial ingredients in our construction are the identification of the correct brane charge tensors and the use of the double field ...

Abstract Energy bars are widely consumed functional foods among athletes and physically active consumers who require convenient sources of sustained energy. Their carbohydrate composition, particularly the type and ratio of digestible sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, strongly influences glycaemic index (GI), postprandial blood glucose ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Rice milling characteristics and storage stability are critical traits influencing industrial applications. Floury endosperm rice carrying the flo4‐4 allele is valuable for dry milling but exhibits reduced storage stability associated with altered starch structural characteristics.
