Published: December 2015

AbstractSensory marketing can be an efficient way to involve consumers in the store environment. Diffusing a pleasant ambient scent that matches with the store setting is often used to create pleasant shopping experiences. The aim of this study is to extend scent marketing research: (i) by examining the effect of pleasant ambient scent on the different dimensions of customer value; and (ii) by exploring whether product‐scent incongruity can have a positive effect on consumer evaluations. A field experiment with 182 participants showed that a pleasant gender‐incongruent ambient perfume positively influences different dimensions of customer value as compared to the absence of a perfume. Moreover, a gender‐incongruent perfume also leads to a more positive evaluation of the play, product excellence, and social dimension of customer value as compared to a gender‐congruent perfume. A pleasant gender‐congruent ambient perfume, on the other hand, only has a positive effect on the aesthetic dimension of customer value as compared to the absence of a perfume. The observed ambient scent effects do not differ between men and women. These results are in contrast with existing literature. However, an explanation for this undocumented effect can be found in the mate attraction theory. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Theoretical analysis of heat transfer and friction factor for turbulent flow of nanofluids through pipes
Authors: Sharma K. Viswanatha , Azmi Wan H. , Kamal Subhash , Sarma Pullela K. , Vijayalakshmi Bathula 
Published: December 2015

AbstractA numerical model for determining the turbulent characteristics of fluid flow and heat transfer is presented, treating certain constants in the van Driest eddy diffusivity equation of momentum and heat as variables. The viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanofluids are estimated using regression equations. It was observed that the turbulent characteristics of nanofluids are different from those of water. The numerical results indicate a higher velocity of SiO2 nanofluid and lower eddy diffusivity compared to Cu under similar operating conditions. The nanofluid temperature gradient increases with concentration and decreases with temperature. However, the temperature gradient is significantly influenced by the particle density. Equations for estimating the coefficient and the Prandtl index in the eddy diffusivity equations of momentum and heat, respectively, are developed as a function of Reynolds number, concentration, and nanofluid properties. The Prandtl index value decreases with increasing concentration, reflecting the reduction in heat transfer coefficients observed at lower operating temperatures.

Published: December 2015

SummaryThis paper describes the design, realization and use of an analogical, fully reconfigurable experimental setup to analyze the complex dynamics of networks of chaotic circuits. It reports details of the implementation and characterization of the setup, together with representative results, showing its flexibility and potential. The setup allows to choose arbitrarily the coupling strength and interconnection structure among the circuits, the type of link and to select the parameters of the node dynamics. It has a modular structure, and it can accommodate up to 32 nodes interconnected by at most 32 links. The collective dynamics of a relatively large set of different network structures and configurations has been investigated using the setup. Synchronization, pattern formation and other interesting collective phenomena were observed experimentally, their evidence being reported here as an illustration of the potential of the proposed setup.

Published: December 2015

ObjectiveTo investigate whether self‐efficacy moderates the association between self‐rated memory and depressive symptoms in a large sample of older adults. The influence of self‐efficacy and depressive symptoms on memory performance was also examined in a subsample of individuals who reported poor memory.MethodsNon‐demented participants (n = 3766) were selected from the 2012 wave of the Health and Retirement Study. Depressive symptomatology was assessed with the 8‐item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale. A modified version of the Midlife Developmental Inventory Questionnaire was used as the measure of self‐efficacy. Participants were asked to rate their memory presently on a five‐point scale from Excellent (1) to Poor (5). Immediate memory and delayed memory (after a 5‐min interval) were measured by the number of correct words recalled from a 10‐item word list.ResultsMultiple regression analyses revealed that negative ratings of memory were significantly associated with greater levels of depressive symptoms, with this effect being greatest in those with low levels of self‐efficacy. Additionally, greater self‐efficacy was associated with optimal objective memory performances but only when depressive symptoms were low in individuals who reported poor memory function (n = 1196).ConclusionSelf‐efficacy moderates the relationship between self‐rated memory function and depressive symptoms. Higher self‐efficacy may buffer against the impact of subjective memory difficulty on one's mood and thereby mitigating the effect of depressive symptoms on memory. Interventions should focus on increasing perceived self‐efficacy in older adults reporting poor memory function to potentially minimize memory impairment.
Novel Raman Spectroscopic Biomarkers Indicate That Postyield Damage Denatures Bone's Collagen
Authors: Unal Mustafa , Jung Hyungjin , Akkus Ozan 
Published: December 2015

ABSTRACT

Raman spectroscopy has become a powerful tool in the assessment of bone quality. However, the use of Raman spectroscopy to assess collagen quality in bone is less established than mineral quality. Because postyield mechanical properties of bone are mostly determined by collagen rather than the mineral phase, it is essential to identify new spectroscopic biomarkers that help infer the status of collagen quality. Amide I and amide III bands are uniquely useful for collagen conformational analysis. Thus, the first aim of this work was to identify the regions of amide bands that are sensitive to thermally induced denaturation. Collagen sheets and bone were thermally denatured to identify spectral measures that change significantly following denaturation. The second aim was to assess whether mechanical damage denatures the collagen phase of bone, as reflected by the molecular spectroscopic biomarkers identified in the first aim. The third aim was to assess the correlation between these new spectroscopic biomarkers and postyield mechanical properties of cortical bone. Our results revealed five peaks whose intensities were sensitive to thermal and mechanical denaturation: ∼1245, ∼1270, and ∼1320 cm–1 in the amide III band, and ∼1640 and ∼1670 cm–1 in the amide I band. Four peak intensity ratios derived from these peaks were found to be sensitive to denaturation: 1670/1640, 1320/1454, 1245/1270, and 1245/1454. Among these four spectral biomarkers, only 1670/1640 displayed significant correlation with all postyield mechanical properties. The overall results showed that these peak intensity ratios can be used as novel spectroscopic biomarkers to assess collagen quality and integrity. The changes in these ratios with denaturation may reflect alterations in the collagen secondary structure, specifically a transition from ordered to less-ordered structure. The overall results clearly demonstrate that this new spectral information, specifically the ratio of 1670/1640, can be used to understand the involvement of collagen quality in the fragility of bone. © 2015 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.
How ‘ground‐picked’ olive fruits affect virgin olive oil ethanol content, ethyl esters and quality

Published: December 2015

AbstractBackgroundOlives dropped on the ground naturally sometimes are not separated from those fresh and healthy collected from the tree for harvest and processing. In this work we compared the quality, ethanol content and bioactive components of virgin olive oils from ground‐picked olives, tree‐picked fruits and their mixture.ResultsGround‐picked olives produced ‘Lampante’ virgin olive oils; these are of a lower quality category, because of important alterations in chemical and sensory characteristics. Ethyl esters showed the highest values, although under the regulated limit. The mixture of ground and tree‐picked olives gave oils classified as ‘virgin’ because of sensory defects, although the quality parameters did not exceed the limits for the ‘extra’ category. Ethanol content showed a significant increase in the oils from ground‐ picked olives and their mixture with respect to those from tree‐picked fruits. Furthermore, bioactive compounds showed a significant decrease as fruit quality was poorer.ConclusionGround‐picked olives must be harvested and processed separately since they produce low‐quality virgin olive oils with sensory defects and lower concentrations of bioactive compounds. The higher acidity and ethanol concentration observed in oils from ground‐picked fruits or their mixture may help ethyl ester synthesis during storage. © 2015 Society of Chemical Industry

Published: December 2015

AbstractBACKGROUNDOxheart cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) is a member of the Brassica genus. Although some studies on the anticancer effects of extracts from oxheart cabbage have been reported, comprehensive information on the bioactive fractions and components from oxheart cabbage extracts is still lacking. The aim of this study was to isolate and identify the bioactive fractions and components from oxheart cabbage seeds using activity‐guided isolation methods.RESULTSThe cytotoxicity and apoptotic effects of fraction II, fraction III, iberverin, sulforaphane and iberin from oxheart cabbage seed extract were investigated. The results showed that all five components had inhibitory effects on the in vitro growth of A549 cells which were dose‐dependent. These compounds also changed the morphology of A549 cells, and their inhibitory activity on A549 cells was as follows: sulforaphane > iberin > iberverin > fraction III > fraction II. The IC50 values were 3.53 ± 0.63, 4.93 ± 1.02, 7.07 ± 0.51, 15.56 ± 0.24 and 27.32 ± 0.63 µg mL−1 respectively. Fraction II, fraction III, iberverin, sulforaphane and iberin induced cell apoptosis by increasing early apoptosis and late apoptosis/necrosis, and activation of caspase‐3, −8 and −9.CONCLUSIONThese results indicated that the decrease in A549 cell viability by active compounds from oxheart cabbage seed extract was due to the induction of apoptosis. © 2015 Society of Chemical Industry
Hierarchical Structure of the Fibrillar Hydrogel Network of a Self‐Assembled Synthetic Peptide Revealed by X‐ray Scattering and Atmospheric Scanning Electron Microscopy
Authors: Yamamoto Katsuhiro , Yokoi Hidenori , Otani Aya 
Published: December 2015

SummaryWe herein developed a self‐assembling peptide with the ability to form a gel in water at pH ∼7 (SPG‐178 (a self‐assembling peptide gel with the amino acid sequence #178; [CH3CO]‐RLDLRLALRLDLR‐[NH2]; R = arginine, L = leucine, D = aspartic acid, and A = alanine). Leucine residues were employed to increase the hydrophobic interaction of SPG‐178 in water, which was one of the important driving forces of self‐assembly, and stabilize fibrillar hydrogel formation. The hierarchical structure of the fibrillar hydrogel of the peptide was analyzed using small/wide angle X‐ray scattering measurements (SAXS and WAXS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and atmospheric scanning electron microscopy (ASEM). SAXS, AFM, and TEM measurements revealed the fibril nano‐structure of the self‐assembled peptide; the width of the fibril was ∼5 nm, which coincided with the length of one molecule in the β‐sheet structure revealed by FT‐IR and WAXS in water. ASEM permitted in situ observations, even in water, without freezing. The fibrillar network structure of the gel (micrometer scale) was directly visualized using ASEM measurements.
