Alergenní vonné látky v potravinách a předmětech běžného užívání / Fragrance Allergens in Foods and Everyday Use ProductsDivišová, Radka January 2014 (has links)
Fragrances are added to food, cosmetics and other products primarily for enhancement of their sensory quality (taste and/or aroma). However, the usage of these compounds is associated with the wide range of various adverse biological effects. Some fragrances widely used in cosmetics are proved to cause e.g. skin sensitization, rashes, dermatitis, headache, cough etc. To protect the health of consumers, European union approved the cosmetic directive (ES/1223/2009) that requires the labeling of 26 allergen fragrances on the final product label, if concentration exceeds the given level (0,01 % for rinse-off and 0,001 % for leave-on product). However, some producers hide the presence of allergens in the final product under the general term „aroma“. For this reason it is very important to monitor the content of these substances in cosmetic products. Fragrances are found not only in cosmetics, but the various types of food are also aromatized by them. Unlike cosmetics, the food producers are not obliged to label the presence of fragrance allergens on the packaging. Therefore, the monitoring of these fragrances is highly desirable because of the potential health risks they pose. The aim of this study was to develop a method for simultaneous determination of regulated fragrance allergens in food and everyday use products. The method based on extraction of analytes by solid phase microextraction coupled to gas chromatography with FID detection (HS-SPME-GC-FID) was chosen on the basis of the literature review. The fiber CAR/PDMS provided the highest extraction efficiency among the SPME fibers tested. Univariate and multivariate data analysis were used to optimize the main parameters affecting microextraction process. The final method validation was performed in terms of linearity, repeatability, reproducibility, recovery, limits of detection and quantification. The optimized and validated method was applied to a wide range of products including cosmetics, aromatized food and fragranced toys. These products were also subjected to sensory evaluation especially in terms of taste and/or aroma (i.e. flavour), which may be associated with the content of the monitored fragrances. The profile test (EN ISO 13299) and seven-point category ordinal scale (ISO 4121) were used for sensory evaluation.

Produkce mikrobiálních enzymů a jejich stabilizace enkapsulací / Production of microbial enzymes and their stabilization by encapsulationHazuchová, Eva January 2016 (has links)
The present thesis deals with the production of microbial enzymes and their subsequent stabilization through encapsulation. The theoretical part focuses on microbial enzymes, especially extracellular hydrolases, their producers and characteristics. Within the theory is also discussed the possibility of the application of enzymes in the field of pharmacy and medicine. Experimental work was focused on the actual production of microbial enzymes and methods for their to stabilization. The production of proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes in dependence on time and the used culture substrate were followed. The highest enzyme production was observed in Aspergillus oryzae when cultured on wheat bran at the third day of cultivation. In the experimental part was further carried out the identification, isolation and purification of enzymes. A substantial part of the experiment was to stabilize produced microbial enzymes by encapsulation. Enzymes were entrapped into alginate particles with encapsulation efficiency in the range of 55-70 %. The highest efficiency exhibited encapsulated enzymes from Aspergillus oryzae. Subsequently, long-term stability of the encapsulated enzyme in two environments (in water and gel) was followed during six weeks incomparison with free enzyme. During storage of free enzyme a significant decrease in enzyme activities occured, especially between the fourth and sixth week of storage. On the contrary, in encapsulated increased enzyme activities were observed. Empty particles exhibited higher stability during storage in the gel than in water. In this thesis potential use of enzymes in the pharmaceutical industry as agents promoting digestion was tested too. According to the results, particles with encapsulated microbial enzymes could be considered as suitable for some pharmaceutical applications.

Devenir entrepreneur : la place de l'histoire personnelle dans le processus d'apprentissage de l'entrepreneuriat / Becoming an entrepreneur : the role of personal story in the entrepreneurial learning processCiobanu-Gout, Varvara 22 October 2018 (has links)
L'entrepreneur, grand absent du paysage économique pendant une grande partie du vingtième siècle, est de retour. Le profil de l'entrepreneur contemporain est étroitement lié aux caractéristiques de l'individu hypermoderne : un sujet mobile, qui exige sa liberté, qui construit ses propres réseaux, qui a ses propres aspirations. La motivation dans l'acte entrepreneurial n'est pas uniquement le profit, elle peut varier entre la recherche d'épanouissement, et la création de son propre emploi. Les dispositifs d'accompagnement à la création d'entreprise se sont multipliés et l'enseignement de l'entrepreneuriat est devenu une priorité. L'objectif de cette recherche est l'étude du processus d'apprentissage de l'entrepreneuriat dans une approche biographique, mettant l'accent sur les apprentissages informels. Le groupe des entrepreneurs n'étant pas une catégorie sociale homogène, l'échantillon a été construit à partir d'un seul domaine d'activité, la cosmétique biologique. La recherche repose sur l'étude de récits de vie de six entrepreneurs spécialisés dans ce secteur. Cette étude met en évidence trois types de phénomènes qui apportent un éclairage sur le processus d'apprentissage de l'entrepreneuriat : des phénomènes spécifiques au monde de la cosmétique biologique, des phénomènes communs à tous les entrepreneurs mais qui prennent une forme différente en fonction de l'histoire personnelle de celui-ci, et des phénomènes spécifiques à chaque entrepreneur, qui montrent l'influence biographique sur la manière d'entreprendre. Cette thèse ouvre, en conclusion, des perspectives sur l'utilisation des histoires de vie comme méthode de soutien à la création d'entreprise. / The entrepreneur, who has been missing from the economic landscape for the majority of the twentieth century, is back. The profile of the contemporary entrepreneur is closely linked to the characteristics of the hypermodern individual : a mobile person demanding their freedom, and constructing their own network, with their own ambitions. The motivation behind the creation of a business is not only making profit; it can vary from the pursuit of personal fulfilment to the necessary creation of one’s own job. Mechanisms to support setting up new businesses have proliferated, and teaching entrepreneurship nowadays has become a priority.The goal of this research is to study the entrepreneurial learning process within a biographical approach, stressing informal learning. As the entrepreneurs do not form a homogenous social category, the sample was created from one activity domain : organic cosmetics. This research is based on the study of life-stories of six entrepreneurs specialising in this domain. This study shows three types of phenomena, shedding light on the entrepreneurial learning process: phenomena that are specific to the biological cosmetics domain, phenomena shared by all entrepreneurs but taking different shapes according to their personal story, and phenomena specific to each entrepreneur showing the biographical influence on the learning method. This thesis opens new perspectives on the possible uses of accounts of life as a method to assist in setting up new businesses.

En este trabajo presentamos un plan de negocios para el desarrollo de jabones corporales y faciales a base de insumos naturales con propiedades antibacterianas. Para este proyecto se realizó un análisis de la competencia y el benchmarking de la industria de la cosmética natural con la finalidad de desarrollar productos viables en el largo plazo y un amplio valor diferencial. Asimismo, para validar nuestro modelo de negocio desarrollamos dos hipótesis las cuales fueron validadas mediante experimentos MVP.
Mediante estos experimentos pudimos ofrecer finalmente al mercado un producto adaptado a los gustos y preferencias de nuestro público objetivo para el cual tuvimos que realizar la segmentación de nuestro mercado. Luego de ello se realizó el plan de ejecución de nuestro concierge con la finalidad de analizar la demanda y costos de nuestro proyecto para luego realizar nuestra proyección de ventas.
Luego de realizar esta proyección también se tuvo que realizar el presupuesto de cada área. Entre estas encontramos a operaciones, recursos humanos, marketing y RSE. Estos presupuestos por lo general iban enfocados hacia las estrategias e inversiones que aplicaremos considerando la imagen que deseamos proyectar en el mercado. / In this paper we present a business plan for the development of body and facial soaps based on natural ingredients with antibacterial properties. For this project, an analysis of the competition and benchmarking of the natural cosmetics industry was carried out in order to develop viable products in the long term and a wide differential value. Likewise, to validate our business model, we developed two hypotheses which were validated through MVP experiments.
Through these experiments we were finally able to offer the market a product adapted to the tastes and preferences of our target audience for which we had to carry out the segmentation of our market. After that, the execution plan of our concierge was made in order to analyze the demand and costs of our project and then carry out our sales projection.
After carrying out this projection, the budget for each area also had to be made. Among these we find operations, human resources, marketing and CSR. These budgets were generally focused on the strategies and investments that we will apply considering the image we wish to project in the market. / Trabajo de investigación

Selected factors influencing maven tendency and cosmetic products’ trial by female consumers in Southern GautengDlamini, Zinhle Lindani 11 1900 (has links)
M. Tech. (Department of Marketing, Faculty of Management Sciences), Vaal University of Technology / In the case of cosmetic products, which convey both psychological and symbolic benefits to consumers, it is imperative for marketers to expand the scope of product trial as it presents a novel strategy for signalling the success of new products. In lieu of this, considerable attention should be accorded to the ubiquitous role of influential consumers who are instrumental in influencing the behaviour of other consumers through exemplary conduct and/or interpersonal word-of-mouth (WOM) communication. In this vein, this study sought to examine the influence of selected factors on market maven tendency and the ultimate trial of new cosmetic products by female consumers in the southern Gauteng. This presents the need to examine empirically the role of market mavens who play an indispensable role in filling the omitted information gaps existing within the market. Particularly, this research is in response to calls for unremitting replications of the work seeking to establish the nomological variables that are antecedent to the market mavenism construct. The study drew from the confluence of the Two-step flow theory and the Stimulus Organism Response (SOR) theory, which provided theoretical lenses in understanding how various stimuli could possibly influence the maven tendency (organism) and the ultimate trial of new cosmetic products (response) by those mavens situated in the southern Gauteng region of South Africa.
In view of achieving the overarching objective of this study, a sample survey was conducted in 2018 using a sample of female market mavens that were selected on referral basis, after applying the snowball sampling technique. In the cross-sectional based sample survey, a self-administered questionnaire was utilised. Drawing from the responses, a trichotomisation was developed, enabling the researcher to categorise the participants by including those individuals reporting either low (n=86), moderate (n=141) or high (n=248) maven tendency scores. Resultantly, the findings from a cross-section of 475 female mavens were admissible for statistical analysis.
Drawing from the statistical analysis, the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) procedure steered the extraction of six components that are salient towards calibrating the tendency towards market mavenship among female consumers of cosmetic products. The scale items along these six components yielded acceptable internal consistency reliability (Cronbach’s alpha coefficients ranged between 0.792 and 0.876), whereas the results of the descriptive statistics revealed mean score rankings above 4.0 across the six components, thereby signalling agreeability among the participants with regard to the determinants of market maven tendency. Likewise, weak to moderate correlation coefficients that were positive and statistically significant (p <0.01) were also established in this work (ranging between +0.297 and +0.639). This inferred the existence oflinear and direct relationships among the variables examined in this work. Based on this, it was possible to conduct a structural equation modelling procedure.
Prior to testing the hypothesised relationships, model fit of the measurement model was evaluated. Moreover, analysis of the statistical accuracy measures in terms of the reliability and validity of the measurement model pointed to the existence of a six-variable structure of new product trial, comprising consumer innovativeness, aspirational attractiveness, social norms influence, advertising efficacy, market maven tendency and new cosmetic products’ trial. Correspondingly, the direction and prediction among these constructs was tested by specifying a structural model. The structural model yielded adequate fit indices. In terms of prediction, the four constructs, namely consumer innovativeness (ß=+0.441; Z=9.292; p<0.01), social norms influence (ß=+0.339; Z=7.272; p<0.01), advertising efficacy (ß=+0.293; Z=6.607; p<0.01) and aspirational attractiveness (ß=+0.182; Z=4.099; p<0.01) were proven to have positive and statistically significant predictive influence on market maven tendency, in that order. Together, the four stimuli are presumed to explain approximately 43 percent of the variance in the tendency towards market mavenship among the responding female consumers.
Market maven tendency was confirmed as a predictor of new product trial in this research (ß=+0.478; Z=8.448; p<0.01). This latter path proved that the tendency towards market maven behaviour explains approximately 23 percent on the variance in new product trial among female mavens. These maiden findings suggest that it is possible to anchor the construct of market maven tendency along a broader behavioural science theory, comprising selected stimulus elements. In particular, the results derived in this study demonstrate the three-fold orientation of the female maven in terms of innate (consumer innovativeness), context-based (social norms influence and advertising efficacy) as well as the desired or sought-after (aspirational attractiveness) stimuli that influence market maven tendency. In addition, the study confirmed that new product trial could act as an invaluable tool for raising awareness about the features and benefits of new cosmetic products. Based on these results, it is recommended that marketing managers capitalise on the contribution of market mavens as auxiliary dispensers of new beauty product information.

La percepción de mujeres entre los 25 a 35 años sobre la narrativa en temas de responsabilidad social. Caso Natura Cosméticos / The perception of women between the ages of 25 and 35 about the narrative on issues of social responsibility. Case of Natura CosmeticsDipaz Romero, Georgette Hillary 01 October 2020 (has links)
En la actualidad, el marketing social es una estrategia que se ha ido implementando y ejecutando dentro de las empresas, cada vez con mayor potencia, tanto con fines comerciales, así como también de posicionamiento. Si bien es cierto, una empresa con responsabilidad social puede influir internamente, es decir, a sus colaboradores. Es importante conocer la percepción de los consumidores externos, y conocer la viabilidad de esta estrategia. Asimismo, no solo se trata de ejecutar una buena acción, si no de saber comunicar dichas acciones hacia el público externo, ambos hechos tienen que ir de la mano, para que la estrategia logre excelentes resultados. Por ende, es de suma importancia, idear y ejecutar una narrativa exitosa, que logre captar la atención del target, que permita entender el mensaje y hasta influir en las decisiones del mismo, Es por ello, que, el presente trabajo busca analizar de qué manera es percibida la comunicación con respecto a las acciones de responsabilidad social y conocer si estas acciones son verdaderamente valoradas. Para concluir, esta investigación se realizará en base a la metodología cualitativa, mediante entrevistas a profundidad, segmentado hacia mujeres entre los 25 a 35 años del nivel socioeconómico A y B. / Nowadays, social marketing is a strategy that has been implemented and executed in companies, with increasing importance for both purely commercial and positioning purposes. Although it is true, a company with social responsibility can influence internally, so their collaborators are getting influenced by them. The viability of this strategy in front of the final consumer has not yet been successfully identified. On the other hand, it is not only about executing a good action, but also knowing how to communicate it to your external audience, both actions must go hand in hand, so that this strategy has excellent results. And so finally influence the consumer's purchase decision in favor of the brand. That is why, this work seeks to analyze how communication is carried out based on social responsibility and determine if this action is truly valued by the target, and especially if it finally influences when choosing the product or service. . To conclude, this research will be carried out based on qualitative methodology, through in-depth interviews, segmented towards women between 35 and 45 years of age from socioeconomic level A and B. / Trabajo de investigación
