Max Filke (1855-1911) i jego warsztat kompozytorski na przykładzie preludiów organowych ze zbioru Eduarda Stehlego

2020

Looking at the tradition and heritage of the Silesian land, it can be concluded that over the centuries it has become a culturally distinct European borderland formed by the influence of three mutually interpenetrating cultures: Polish, Czech and German, as well as different religions: Catholic and Protestant. All these factors have made the map of Silesia a peculiar mosaic of multicultural colors, thanks to which this area was marked by the unusually rich legacy of centuries-old activities of distinguished figures for whom the mentioned diversity was a source of creative inspiration. The nineteenth century became an extremely interesting historical moment. Europe was overwhelmed by the spr…

Genetic variability at αs2-casein gene in Girgentana dairy goat breed

2014

Casein genes are highly polymorphic and the high degree of variability has qualitative and quantitative effects on milk composition thereby affecting chemical, physical and technological properties of goat milk. The aim of this work was to evaluate the genetic polymorphisms of the αs2-casein (CSN1S2) gene in the endangered Girgentana dairy goat breed in order to assess the genotypes distribution, as it is known genotype influences technological and nutritional milk properties. The study was performed on 207 sample of Girgentana goat breed, analysed with different PCR protocols. The most frequent alleles was A (0.722), followed by F (0.225), C (0.051) and E (0.002) while B, D and 0 alleles w…

The Use of Stable Isotope Ratio Analysis to Trace European Sea Bass (D. labrax) Originating from Different Farming Systems

2020

This study aimed to determine whether isotopic ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) can discriminate farmed European sea bass according to different farming systems and geographic origins. Dicentrarchus labrax of commercial size from three different rearing systems (concrete tank inland, sea cages, and extensive methods in valleys or salt works) were collected at the trading period (autumn&ndash

Il lusso è degli Altri? Osservazioni sulla nozione di ἁβροσύνη e sulle sue implicazioni sociali e politiche nell’Atene del V secolo a.C

2022

Attraverso un’analisi dell’espressione ἁβρὰ παθεῖν nel frammento 24 W. di Solone e di alcune ricorrenze eschilee dei derivati della radice ἁβρ- (Pers. 41, 135, 541, 543, 1073, Ag. 690-1, 918-20) questo lavoro si inserisce nel dibattito critico esistente intorno alla nozione di ἁβροσύνη, alle implicazioni ad essa connesse in quanto segno di prestigio sociale, e ai modi in cui essa fu percepita nel contesto culturale ateniese del V secolo. In particolare, si ritiene che tali riferimenti alla ἁβροσύνη, se considerati nel contesto poetico in cui sono impiegati e alla luce di una selezione di altre testimonianze di VI e V secolo, rifletterebbero, nella πόλις di Atene, la presenza di una pluralit…

Postharvest quality and sensory attributes of organically grown Ficus carica L.

2021

This study evaluates some physical and chemical characteristics and sensory descriptors of fig fruit cultivars ‘Petrelli’ and ‘Fico di Terlizzi’, belonging to the national germplasm bank of fig trees and cultivated in Southern Italy. For the sensory evaluation of external appearance, the descriptors skin color, pulp color, odor, sweetness, stickiness, bitterness, juiciness, firmness, tannic taste and presence of achenes were measured. Results showed that fresh weight, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), TSS:TA, firmness, and sensory properties were different for the two cultivars. SSC was more correlated with sensory attributes than TA, but other factors were also important…

MACROLEPIDOPTERA SPECIES WITH VULNERABLE STATUS AND THEIR IMPACT ON THE PROTECTED AREA OF DUMBRAVA SIBIULUI

2013

The present work is a part of a complet study concerning of Macrolepidoptera from the forest “Dumbrava Sibiului” in the Sibiu county. They are presented only the species found by myself for the frist time from this area. I mention that these species were not found by me in the five collections of Lepidoptetra studied by me and preserved at the Natural Hystory Museum in Sibiu.

The “genetic erosion” of the soil ecosystem

2013

Abstract This paper takes into consideration the influence of human activities on the loss of pedodiversity in a Mediterranean area due to large scale farming. In particular it examines the quantitative and qualitative soil changes in a period of 53 years (from 1955 to 2008) evaluating the loss of soil diversity at soil subgroups level of the USDA Soil Taxonomy system. The following indices were used: richness; Shannon’s diversity index; Simpson diversity index; Shannon’s evenness index; Simpson’s evenness index. In this case study, considering what we observed in time, the human intervention in soil transformation could increase the diversity in the landscape in an initial phase, but forwa…
