Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) is an enigmatic compound abounding in animal tissues. It is present at relatively high concentrations in all electrically excitable tissues such as the brain, sensory organs, the heart, and in certain endocrine glands. Some of its physiological functions are already established, for example as an essential nutrient during development and as a neuromodulator or osmolyte, but the cellular mechanisms are still mostly a matter of conjecture. Moreover, there are a number of other putative functions of taurine less well known at present. The 15th International Ta

This study looks at how far consumers are involved in the decisions they make on purchases. It explores the relationship between the person and the product in terms of cognitive structures and the meanings and concepts that lie behind a product which influence consumer choice. Pirjo Laaksonen starts by defining the social psychological background to the area before identifying ways to research and define the nature of consumer involvement and conceptual development. She lays emphasis on the measurement issues, developing a procedure for conducting a conceptual analysis. Using research that stu
