In a between-subjects design, 4- to 6-year-olds were asked to draw from three-dimensional (3D) models, two-and-a-half-dimensional (212D) models with or without depth cues, or two-dimensional (2D) models of a familiar object (a saucepan) in noncanonical orientations (handle at the back or at the front). Results showed that canonical errors were produced mainly by the youngest children in the 3D models copying condition. A large proportion of errors did not, however, reflect biases toward the participants' "own" view of the object; rather, these errors reflected biases toward their "best" view of the object. Drawing from models having fewer than three dimensions resulted in a significant increase in view-specific productions in all children for the back orientation. When a more complex front orientation of the object was proposed, sensitivity to model type developed gradually with age. Results are discussed in terms of the flexibility of the mental model that mediates between children's perception of a model object and the depiction decisions.
A procedure for the determination of fatty acids (FA) and glycerol in oils has been developed. The method includes a derivatization step of the FAs into their methyl esters or a transesterification of the triacylglycerols with trimethylsulfonium hydroxide (TMSH), respectively. The analysis is carried out by gas chromatography with parallel flame ionization and mass spectrometric detection. The parameters involved in the transesterification reaction were optimized. Only the stoichiometric ratio of TMSH:total FA amount showed a significant influence on the reaction yield. Relative standard deviations for 10 replicates were below 3% for all FAs studied and their linearity range was 0.5-50 mmol/L, when using heptadecanoic acid as an internal standard. The final procedure was rapid and required little sample handling. It was then tested on fresh oil samples and presented satisfying results, in agreement with previous works.
