The growing demand of seafood alternatives is driven by concerns on overfishing, marine pollutants and animal welfare in aquaculture and fisheries. Currently, the availability of non-animal-based seafood flavorings on the market is limited, and animal-based seafood flavorings conflict with vegetarian …

Both consumer and industrial electronics have become increasingly complex and advanced in recent years. High performance semiconductor devices are essential to the function of these electronics, which is why rapid growth of the microelectronics industry and major technological advancements in this field …

The synthesis of aromatic compounds from biomass-derived furans is a key strategy in the pursuit of a sustainable economy. Within this field, a Diels–Alder/aromatization cascade reaction with chitin-based furans is emerging as a powerful tool for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing aromatics. In this …

Dried Tetraselmis chuii biomass has potential as flavoring agent for the development of plant-based seafood alternatives because of its seafood-like aroma and strong umami taste. Depending on the cultivation conditions, microalgae can adapt their metabolism, resulting in a change in biochemical composition. …

The increasing trend of sustainable and on-the-go healthy food products results in consumers demanding more ‘natural and organic ingredients. Not only do consumers want healthier options, but there is also an increasing concern on part of governments and legislation makers on reducing salt levels in …

The indoor air quality (IAQ) in classrooms in higher education can influence in-class activities positively. In this context, the actual IAQ and students' perceived IAQ (PIAQ), perceived cognitive performance (PCP), and short-term academic performance (SAP) were examined in two identical classrooms during …

The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic still poses serious threats to global public health. Therefore, the scientific community is desperately looking for suitable vaccines and pharmacological treatment options. This thesis completes the internship at Specs Compound Handling BV and describes …

An attempt was made to develop a method for the determination of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis and chemical sample desorption of the 3M 3500 passive diffusion sampler. The method included a complex mixture of 205 polar and non-polar …

To locate mating partners and essential resources such as food, oviposition sites and shelter, insects rely to a large extent on chemical cues. While most research has focused on cues derived from plants and insects, there is mounting evidence that indicates that micro‐organisms emit volatile compounds …

Coastal tourism and recreation are one of the most rapidly growing fields worldwide and people spend more time outdoors. Skin protection is, in this respect, important to prevent severe skin damage and skin aging. The past decades the awareness and the importance of skin protection against long time …
