The Unintended Consequences of Sugar‐Sweetened Beverage Taxes on Sales and Prices of Beer Beverages

Health Economics, EarlyView.
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 ...

On actions for (entangling) surfaces and DCFTs

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
The dynamics of surfaces and interfaces describe many physical systems, including fluid membranes, entanglement entropy and the coupling of defects to quantum field theories.

Effects of mixed microbial fermentation on the quality and metabolite profile of cassava leaf feed based on untargeted metabolomics

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
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

Advantages of low‐glycaemic‐index carbohydrates in regulating glycaemic response of energy bar: A review

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
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 ...

Monopoles, Dirac strings and generalised symmetries

Journal of High Energy Physics
Dirac’s formulation of magnetic monopoles is shown to be equivalent to Maxwell theory coupled to 2-form gauge fields so that it has a local 1-form symmetry, with the 2-form gauge fields given in terms of the 2-form current densities associated with the ...

Complex three-form supergravity and membranes

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
There exist two variants of the old minimal formulation for N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supergravity in four dimensions, in which one or each of the two auxiliary scalars is replaced by the field strength of a gauge three-form.

ASYMPTOTIC DENSITY OF STATES OF p-BRANES

Modern Physics Letters A, 1992
The asymptotic form of the density of states for a p-brane is computed (using the semi-classical approximation for the expression of the mass formula), and a value is found which only resembles the exponential growth of black holes in the formal limit p → ∞. Some physical consequences for the thermodynamics of these objects are also presented.

Loss of zinc from zinc‐biofortified rice and conventional rice varieties due to various cooking techniques practiced in rural Bangladesh

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Zinc‐biofortified rice has the potential to provide a sustainable solution for zinc deficiency, particularly in Asian countries where rice is the primary staple food. However, cooking of raw rice is associated with some loss of micronutrients, including zinc.

Evaluation of agronomic traits and storage stability in novel rice cultivar ‘Baromi3’ combining floury endosperm and lipoxygenase 3 deficiency

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
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.
