Food design contribution to democracy through infantile education: organoleptic...

This exploratory study, framed by an investigation on food design, has as its goal to assess the organoleptic acquis on infant citizens (aged 3 - 5), from different socio-economic groups. The investigation is based on the statistical evaluation of a questionnaire survey, structured by the taxonomic circle of Atlantic-Mediterranean taste where the sample comes from (two schools from the metropolitan area of Port...

In vitro volatile exometabolome signature of clear cell renal cell carcinoma

Food design as a tool for social development: experimental study in the evaluat...

The study is part of a food design research having the aim to assess the relevance of the olfactory experience on social development and the improvement of public health. Its immediate and primitive connection to the emotions zone establishes an experience of direct connection to motivations and desires, transporting memory to the construction of a moral consciousness about what we smell and eat, contributing t...

Volatilomics reveals potential biomarkers for identification of renal cell carc...

The identification of noninvasive biomarkers able to detect renal cell carcinoma (RCC) at an early stage remains an unmet clinical need. The recognition that altered metabolism is a core hallmark of cancer boosted metabolomic studies focused in the search for cancer biomarkers. The present work aims to evaluate the performance of the volatile metabolites present in the extracellular medium to discriminate RCC c...

Volatile exometabolome profiling of human renal cell carcinoma cell lines for b...

Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) constitutes approximately 90-95% of all kidney neoplasms and is the second most lethal urological cancer. Current diagnostic techniques rely on imaging techniques and an invasive procedure (biopsy) is always required for histopathologic confirmation of malignancy. For these reasons, the identification of accurate biomarkers to develop faster, less invasive and more sophisticated diagn...

Caracterização do exometaboloma volátil de linhas celulares de cancro renal com...

O Carcinoma de Células Renais (CCR) representa o terceiro cancro urológico mais frequente e letal em Portugal. Este tipo de cancro inclui vários subtipos histológicos com diferentes potenciais metastáticos, sendo o carcinoma de células claras (ccCCR) e o papilar (pCCR) os mais comuns. É atualmente reconhecida a importância da descoberta de biomarcadores moleculares específicos para o diagnóstico e estadiamento ...

Food design symbolic dimension: contribution for a better, funnier and healthie...

How to reconcile the traditional organoleptic desire with surviving the new food epidemics? Whatshape to design for a conscious feeding?  Food design should prevent to sustain, helping society to overcome its health disorders, respecting its culturalidentity. Accomplishing that purpose will imply education or emotional persuasion. Making a comparative analysis of handheld food containing systems, we generi...
