The primary aim of this research study was to characterize cattle forebrain muscle texture from Urabá, Antioquia (Colombia). Twelve carcass quarters classified as three, four, and five stars according to NTC 4271 (1996) were dissected and 28 of the most voluminous muscles were separated. Hardness was determined by using a Warner Bratzler probe coupled to a TA. XT System Plus texture analyzer. These values combined with optimal criteria (HG: max; HC: min; ASW: max) were used to identify a low number of primary cuts that were similar in tenderness while having continuity and identifiable skeletal landmarks that would allow establishing a rigid collection protocol. It was concluded that simultaneous fulfillment of these conditions was not possible and that a star classification system did not allow establishing differences between tenderness classification values.

This work aims to train tasters in the methodology of texture profile in fermented milk. The pre-selection, selection of the candidates, training and verification of the training were carried out. The training was carried out in the methodology of the texture profile and its verification was by analysis of typical deviations, variance of simple classification and main components. Eight judges trained in the texture profile methodology, repetitive, with discriminatory and concordant capacity were prepared. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Derrida often says that the question of other living beings, i.e., of the other than the human, has always concerned his writing, even when it was not an explicit theme of his formulations. This paper aims to address this assertion as an occasion to question whether such concern was similarly treated in all cases, or if perhaps the different topics, interlocutors and, in short, textures that Derridian writing goes through, do not bring relevant philosophical impacts for the approach of such problem. To do so, The voice and the phenomenon (1967) will be studied through the main thesis of plantism as developed by M. Marder and J.T. Nealon, recognizing nevertheless that plants do not usually constitute the non-human living beings Derrida refers to. In this sense, and without pretending to "reveal what Derrida really meant", this research seeks to examine a series of tools that we find particularly interesting to approach subjectivity from a postmetaphysical perspective.

Ice cream with almonds is of the consumer's preference and it is the texture who conditions, its purchase or not. Seven tasters in sensory profile elaboration, they generated texture descriptors and they evaluated different samples of sensory quality on structured scales of 10 cm. Quantitative descriptive profile of texture obtained for ice cream with almonds have, 12 descriptors, seven are mechanical, three geometric and two of body, and the references acceptance zone of this descriptors, as well as the sequence of their evaluation.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the variation of color and texture during pile salting of the catfish meat (Bagre marinus) with different salting mixtures. The meat once characterized was cut into sheets of 3.5x3.5x1 cm with an approximate weight of 15 g. The conservation process was performed for 96 h with NaCl (M1), mixtures of 75% NaCl and 25% KCl (M2), 65% NaCl and 35% KCl (M3), 50% NaCl and 50% KCl (M4), 55% NaCl, 25% KCl, 15% CaCl2 and 5% MgCl2 (M5), and 45% NaCl, 25% KCl, 20% CaCl2 and 10% MgCl2 (M6). Samples were taken at 3, 6, 9, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h to measure instrumental color (L*, a*, and b*) and texture. At the end of 96 h, the salted meat was sensory evaluated by acceptance with respect to color and texture. With the color data, chroma (C*), hue (Hº) and total color difference (ΔE) were calculated. C* values decreased (p < 0.05) using M1, M5 and M6, while increased (p < 0.05) using M2, M3 and M4. Hº decreased (p < 0.05) when using M1, M2, M3 and M4 and increased (p < 0.05) when using M5 and M6. There was an increase in the total color difference for all salted samples being higher when M5 and M6 were used. The texture increased (p < 0.05) when the different mixtures were used. The variation of the C* values were explained by a zero order kinetics, and the variation of the Hº, ΔE and texture values were explained by a first order kinetics. The color and texture of the salted meat using M1, M2, M3 and M4 were valued as I like it, while using M5 and M6 they were as neither like nor dislike. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper aims to show the interest of social theory for sociological practice. Through a critical look at what has been the cardinal problem of sociology -the social order-, we will try to show the promise of a perspective that puts the origin of sociological work in the irrepressible nature of action. The article develops the theoretical consequences of some of the implications of this conceptualization and how it makes possible to renew the analysis of certain sociological problems (those of action and social positions).

Carrasco, Alberto. Texture. The text shows two ways of thinking profoundly of blindness, as a symbol and as a physical reality. The first way: its metaphorical and archetypal scopes manifested in history and literature. The second way: problems found in existential human reality: Do we really have an advantage over a blind person? The answer is no, and from there epistemological, metaphysical and theological questions are reviewed to finish with some proof about the "undisadvantaged" blind person. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The periodic nature of the fabric images allows using fast Fourier transform techniques in image processing for its characterization. Due to the repetition of patterns inside the images of textile, is possible to find a form relatively easy of description in their energy spectrum. A recent work outlines a group of geometric descriptors for the Fourier spectrum of the images; looking for this efficiency to rotation, translation and scale change invariance [1]. These descriptors showed to be very effective to represent a textile fabric and can be used to characterize the quasi periodic textures in real time and in situ non destructive techniques. Samples of textile textures are tested to this technique of parametric representation with the purpose of analyzing their robustness and reproducibility. Finally, a set of textile fabrics is subjected to this model with the aim of evaluating the possibilities to carry out classification, verification and pattern recognition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El Rifle-Hato Viejo is a hydrothermal ore occurrence located between Sagua de Tánamo and Moa cities, province of Holguín, eastern Cuba. Breccias and quartz veins with significant concentrations of precious metals constitute it, and it is hosted in ophiolitic rocks, Cretaceous and Tertiary volcanic rocks and Late Campanian--Danian sedimentary rocks. This work aims at adding new elements to focus geological prospecting, taking as a point of departure the description and interpretation of quartz textures. A textural study allowed to recognize several textures, which were classified in three groups: 1) primary growth textures (crustiform, massive chalcedony, zoned crystals, comb and massive quartz, 2) recrystalization textures (mosaic, feathery, flamboyant and ghost-spheres.), and 3) replacement textures (lattice, parallel and radial bladed). Furthermore, was established the adularia-sericite paragenesis, which is typical of low sulphidation epithermal host-rock alteration. Textures were used to suggest the emplacement level within the epithermal system; in this case, the emplacement at the El Rifle--Hato Viejo is suitable to shallow levels. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
