  • Evaluation of the Relative Available Energy of Several Dietary Fiber Preparations Using Breath Hydrogen Evolution in Healthy Humans
    J Nutr Sci Vitaminol, 60, 246–254, 2014 Evaluation of the Relative Available Energy of Several Dietary Fiber Preparations Using Breath Hydrogen Evolution in Healthy Humans Tsuneyuki OKU and Sadako NAKAMURA Graduate School of Human Health Science, University of Nagasaki, Siebold, Nagasaki 851–2195, Japan (Received December 9, 2013) Summary A standardized simple, indirect method for assessing the relative energy of dietary fiber carbohydrates is not yet established. There is a need for a standardized in vivo assay. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the relative available energy (RAE) for 9 major dietary fiber materials (DFMs) based on fermentability from breath hydrogen excretion (BHE) in subjects. Fructooligosaccharide (FOS) was used as a reference. The study was conducted using a within-subject, repeated measures design and approved by the Ethi- cal Committee of University of Nagasaki. After DFM ingestion, end-expiratory gas (750-mL) was collected at 1-h intervals for 8 h, as well as at 2-h intervals between 8 h and 14 h, and 30 min after waking up and 24 h after DFM ingestion. Breath hydrogen concentration was assessed with a gas chromatograph. The RAE of DFMs tested was evaluated based on the area under the curve (AUC) of BHE of FOS. Based on the ratio of AUC for 8 h, the RAE of polydextrose, partially hydrolysed guar gum, resistant maltodextrin and partially hydrolysed alginate was 1 kcal/g, and that of glucomannan, heat-moisture treatment and high-amy- lose cornstarch and cellulose was 0 kcal/g, while the RAE of all tested DEMs including cel- lulose and glucomannan was 1 kcal/g in the calculation based on AUCs for 14 h and 24 h in subjects.

  • An Empirical Study on New Product Introductions in the Japanese Soft-Drink Industry
    Who Imitates Whom?

Lieberman The Anderson School at UCLA Box 951481 Los Angeles, CA 90095-1481 E-mail: [email protected] Tel: 310-206-7665 Fax: 310-206-3337 February 19, 2011 1 Who Imitates Whom? A Study on New Product Introductions in the Japanese Soft-drink Industry ABSTRACT Imitation is observed in various contexts in the business world and numerous theories on imitation have been proposed. Incumbent theories on imitation are organized into two broad categories: information-based theories and rivalry-based theories. Information-based theories propose that firms follow others that are perceived as having superior information. Rivalry-based theories propose that firms imitate others to maintain competitive parity or limit rivalry. This study tries to distinguish among the theories by examining when and what kinds of firms are more likely to be followed by others in their new product introductions in the Japanese soft-drink industry. The empirical analysis shows that in brand-new product imitation, firms follow large competitors, while in product proliferation within established product categories, firms do not tend to follow large firms but mimic others of similar size. These contrasting results are reasonable, suggesting that two theories on imitation coexist and environmental uncertainty may be one of key distinguishing characteristics. In the case of brand-new products, firms face much uncertainty.

THROUGH MOLECULAR AND TRANSCRIPTOMIC APPROACHES A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Muhammad Arif Uz Zaman In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Major Department: Plant Sciences October 2018 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title DELINEATING ROOT SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE IN RAPESEED/CANOLA (BRASSICA NAPUS L.) THROUGH MOLECULAR AND TRANSCRIPTOMIC APPROACHES By Muhammad Arif Uz Zaman The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Dr. Mukhlesur Rahman Chair Dr. Phillip E. McClean Dr. David P. Horvath Dr. Luis del Rio-Mendoza Approved: 11/14/2018 Dr. Rich Horsley Date Department Chair ABSTRACT Root system architecture of plant plays a key role in water and nutrient uptake from the soil, provides anchorage and acts as a storage organ. In this current research, we have focused on the molecular and physiological basis of root system variation in canola (Brassica napus L.). Genome wide association mappings in a diverse canola germplasm panel with ~37,500 and ~30,200 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers were conducted under greenhouse and field conditions, respectively. A total of 52 significant SNP markers associated with different root architectural traits were identified in the greenhouse study. Majority of the markers were distributed on five chromosomes, A01, A02, A04, C03 and C06, of B. napus. Twenty-two candidate genes related to root growth and development were detected within 50 kbp upstream and downstream of the significant markers.
