introduction: flavor plays a pivotal role in consumer satisfaction and further consumption of foods. most available aroma compounds are synthetic and most of consumers tend to avoid them as they are of the idea that the chemical flavors are toxic or detrimental to their health. recently, the market of flavors from natural sources is shifting its focus on application rather than synthetic flavor...

The family Phyllostomidae (New World leafnosed bats) comprises more than 200 species in 60 genera (see Solari and Martínez-Arias, 2014; Hur tado and Pacheco, 2014), and is the second most speciose chiropteran family (Simmons, 2005). The family has undergone a radiation unparalleled in other mammalian families in terms of ecological and morphological diversity (Freeman, 2000; Dumont et al., 2012...

PURPOSE This study evaluates the extent to which bilingual children produce the same or overlapping responses on tasks assessing semantic skills in each of their languages and whether classification analysis based on monolingual or conceptual scoring can accurately classify the semantic development of typically developing (TD) bilingual children. METHOD In Study 1, 55 TD children (ages 4;0 [y...

Sir, In their elegant study, Üçeyler et al. (2013) provide objective evidence of small fibre neuropathy in patients with fibromyalgia. They conclude that fibromyalgia may be a neuropathic pain syndrome (Üçeyler et al., 2013). Small fibre neuropathy is a disorder of the peripheral nerves resulting in sensory changes and sympathetic dysfunction. For years, we have proposed that fibromyalgia is a ...

Roshan et al. recently described a "divide-and-conquer" technique for parsimony analysis of large data sets, Rec-I-DCM3, and stated that it compares very favorably to results using the program TNT. Their technique is based on selecting subsets of taxa to create reduced data sets or subproblems, finding most-parsimonious trees for each reduced data set, recombining all parts together, and then p...
