The individual contribution of starter and non-starter lactic acid bacteria to the volatile organic compound composition of Caciocavallo Palermitano …
2017
Abstract The contribution of two starter ( Lactobacillus delbrueckii and Streptococcus thermophilus ) and nine non-starter ( Enterococcus casselliflavus , Enterococcus faecalis , Enterococcus durans , Enterococcus gallinarum , Lactobacillus casei , Lactobacillus paracasei , Lactobacillus rhamnosus , Pediococcus acidilactici and Pediococcus pentosaceus ) species of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) to the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of Caciocavallo Palermitano cheese was investigated. The strains used in this study were isolated during the production/ripening of the stretched cheese and tested in a cheese-based medium (CBM). The fermented substrates were analyzed for the growth of the single …
Tubercle disease of sugar beet roots (Beta vulgaris) found in Poland is neither caused by Xanthomonas beticola nor by tumorigenic Agrobacterium/Rhizo…
2018
Symptoms of tubercle disease known also as Xanthomonas gall were noticed in Poland in 2014–2017. Roots with disease symptoms showed the reduction of sucrose content compared to the healthy ones. In the literature, there are two gall diseases described: tubercle disease (also known as Xanthomonas gall) and crown gall, which is caused by Rhizobium radiobacter (syn. Agrobacterium tumefaciens). None of the bacterial strains isolated from the malformed tissues were identified as the bacterial pathogen responsible for causing Xanthomonas gall or crown gall. The result was confirmed by searching for the presence of T-DNA, which was not found. Our conclusion is that the tubercle disease observed in…
Galectin-3 in acute coronary syndrome
2017
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a very common cause of hospitalizations worldwide each year. In the past decades biomarkers have become an indispensable tool for diagnosis, risk stratification and prognosis of cardiovascular disease, including ACS. Despite Troponin is considered the gold standard in diagnosis of ACS, several molecules have been investigated to identify predictive biomarkers of prognosis. Among these, Gal-3 has emerged as a promising prognostic marker. It has a pivotal role in inflammation and fibrosis. Both experimental and clinical studies have shown Gal-3 is an independent predictor of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death and occurrence of HF following ACS. This art…
How is the Driver's Workload Influenced by the Road Environment?
2017
Abstract This paper focuses on the study of the driver's workload while driving on a rural two-lane road with different traffic flows. The aim of the research is to examine a parameter that could be representative of the driving effort, quite sensible to the external factors that cause disturbance to the regular driving activity. To solve this problem, the authors used a specific instrumented vehicle for monitoring some physiological parameters of the driver (as the eye movements and the Galvanic Skin Resistance), referring their values to the road context. The results are very interesting and confirm that knowing the workload is useful to improve the road safety only if it is related to th…

The richest superclusters : I Morphology
2007
We study the morphology of the richest superclusters from the catalogues of superclusters of galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and compare the morphology of real superclusters with model superclusters in the Millennium Simulation. We use Minkowski functionals and shapefinders to quantify the morphology of superclusters: their sizes, shapes, and clumpiness. We generate empirical models of simple geometry to understand which morphologies correspond to the supercluster shapefinders. We show that rich superclusters have elongated, filamentary shapes with high-density clumps in their core regions. The clumpiness of superclusters is determined using the fourth Minkowski functional $V_3$.…
Multi-scale morphology of the galaxy distribution
2006
Many statistical methods have been proposed in the last years for analyzing the spatial distribution of galaxies. Very few of them, however, can handle properly the border effects of complex observational sample volumes. In this paper, we first show how to calculate the Minkowski Functionals (MF) taking into account these border effects. Then we present a multiscale extension of the MF which gives us more information about how the galaxies are spatially distributed. A range of examples using Gaussian random fields illustrate the results. Finally we have applied the Multiscale Minkowski Functionals (MMF) to the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey data. The MMF clearly indicates an evolution of morpho…
La constitución del parlamento en caso de presuntas irregularidades electorales: Comentario a la stedh de 10 de julio de 2020 : Caso mugemangango c. …
2021
The ECHR analyzes, through this judgment, a claim based on the violation of the rights to free elections and to an effective remedy, the origin of which is found in a series of alleged electoral irregularities. The national body that had to resolve this issue was not impartial, and the complaint procedure lacked adequate and sufficient guarantees
El TEDH y la Contaminación Acústica: Comentario a la STEDH sobre el caso cCuenca Zarzoso C. España
2018
El presente texto analiza el último caso originario de España sobre contaminación acústica y su afección al derecho a la protección de la privacidad reconocido en el artículo 8 CEDH. Se lleva a cabo de manera conjunta con el caso Moreno Gómez, habida cuenta de sus similitudes.
Plant diseases a herald of environmental changes
2011
Environmental changes can alter morphology and physiology of plants, and geographic distribution of both wild and cultural species. All these modifications reflect in plant-associated microflora and development of plant pathogens as well. Climate warming causes a pole-ward shift not only different plants but also their pathogens.
