Effect of different salting technologies on the chemical and microbiological characteristics of PDO Pecorino Siciliano cheese
2011
The present work was carried out to evaluate the effect of two salting technologies [dry salting (DS) and the combined dry-brine salting (DBS)] on the chemicophysical and microbiological characteristics of PDO Pecorino Siciliano cheeses of different final weight (6 and 12 kg). Dry matter was significantly influenced by both salting process and final size. Twelve kilogram cheeses treated by DBS showed higher protein content with higher soluble nitrogen per cent than 6 kg cheeses. Salt content was in the range 3.1–4.0% on dry matter. The colour did not show significant differences for any of the factors, but 12 kg cheeses subjected to DS showed higher yellow index than the other cheeses. The …
Evaluation of curd cooking on microbiological characteristics of “Grana” type pressed cheeses processed from raw ewes’ milk
2018
This work was carried out to pursue a double objective: to improve the hygienic safety of cheeses produced from raw ewes’ milk; and to produce a new typology of cheese through the application of “Grana” technology. With this in mind, raw milk from an individual farm was transformed under controlled condition at a pilot dairy plant. The production technology included the partial skimming of the evening and morning milk mixture by cream surfacing, the addition of a natural whey starter cultures (NWSC) prepared with four selected Streptococcus thermophilus strains (PON6, PON244, PON261 e PON413) isolated from raw ewes’ cheese productions (Gaglio et al., 2014), milk clotting at 38°C, curd cooki…
Chemical and acidic composition of Longissimus dorsi muscle of Comisana lambs fed with Trifolium subterraneum and Lolium multiflorum
2010
Aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of grazing on Trifolium subterraneum and Lolium multiflorum, as pure or associated crops, on the chemical composition and on the fatty acid profile of the intramuscular lipids of the meat of lambs. Forty Comisana male lambs, on average weighing 13.75±1.90 kg, were divided into four homogenous groups of ten and called, in relation to the diet: group T those grazing on T. subterraneum; Group L on L. multiflorum; Group TL on adjacent monocultures of T. subterraneum and L. multiflorum (66.6 and 33.3% of surface, respectively); Group LT on adjacent monocultures of T. subterraneum and L. multiflorum (33.3 and 66.6% of surface, respectively). Every 10 …
The quality of Valle del Belice sheep’s milk and cheese produced in the hot summer season in Sicily
2013
In response to the growing consumer demand for fresh cheese in summer, this investigation was aimed to evaluate the chemical and microbiological characteristics of sheep’s milk and cheese produced in Sicily in the hot summer months. A total of 810 bulk milk samples collected from 17 farms rearing ewes of the Valle del Belice breed were analysed for chemical composition, somatic cell count, total bacterial count and clotting parameters. Samples (n = 18) of Protected Designation of Origin Vastedda della valle del Belice cheese produced in six dairies were collected in summer, autumn and spring and analysed for chemical composition, microbiological profile and fatty acid (FA) composition.

PAROLE MIGRANTI TRA ORIENTE E OCCIDENTE
2015
L’immagine che oggi il Mediterraneo offre è lungi dall’essere rassicurante. Ai nostri giorni si può dire che le sue opposte rive non abbiano in comune che le loro insoddisfazioni. E sempre più si percepisce questo mare come spazio di attraversamenti intollerati. Percepire il Mediterraneo partendo dal suo passato rimane tuttavia un’abitudine tenace, e a volte viene da pensare che la retrospettiva prevalga sulla prospettiva. La retrospettiva è però irrinunciabile, oggi più che mai. E lo è nel momento in cui la realizzazione di una convivenza in seno ai territori multietnici, là dove si incrociano e si mescolano culture, religioni, lingue diverse, conosce sotto i nostri occhi uno smacco crudel…

Mushrooms contain many bioactive compounds, mainly poly- and oligosaccharides, known to have benefits for human health. Polysaccharides from mushrooms exhibited immunomodulatory, antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties, as well as antitumor activity. Furthermore, some mushrooms showed to have potent antioxidant properties due to the presence of phenolic acids, flavonoids, polysaccharides, carotenoids, ascorbic acid, and tocopherols. These beneficial properties of mushrooms bioactive compounds indicate their potential use as performance-enhancing natural feed additives for livestock animals. In this regard, the use of mushrooms and mushroom-derived products has largely been inves…
