Wickerhamomyces sylviae f.a., sp. nov., an ascomycetous yeast species isolated from migratory birds.
2013
In the present work, we investigated the phylogenetic position and phenotypic characteristics of eight yeast isolates collected from migratory birds on the island of Ustica, Italy. A phylogenetic analysis based on the D1/D2 region of the large-subunit rRNA gene showed that all isolates clustered as a single separate lineage within the Wickerhamomyces clade. They exhibited distinct morphological and physiological characteristics and were clearly separated from their closest relatives, Wickerhamomyces lynferdii, Wickerhamomyces anomalus and Wickerhamomyces subpelliculosus, in blastn searches. On the basis of the isolation source, physiological features and molecular strain typing carried out …
Krīta slimības izraisītāju identificēšana maizes ražošanas procesā
2018
Krīta slimība ir reāla problēma maizes ražošanā, rada agrīnu bojāšanos un zaudējumus - mīkstumā parādās balti pulverveidīgi ieslēgumi. Cēlonis ir milti, kuros atrodas raugi un pelējuma sēnes. Izejvielas, kuras izmanto maizes cepšanai satur barības vielas, kurām ir labvēlīga vide mikroorganismu attīstībai. Nevēlamie mikroorganismi uz maizes var nokļūt no gaisa, iekārtām, taras, transporta un personāla. Šis pētījums tika veikts, lai noskaidrotu vai maizes ražotnē SIA „xxx” sastopama krīta slimība un mikroorganismi, kas to izraisa, iegūstot paraugus no izejvielām un raksturīgākajām to atrašanās vietām. Veicot laboratorijas izmeklējumus, tika identificētas piecas maizes krīta slimības izraisītā…
Exploring the yeast biodiversity of green table olive industrial fermentations for technological applications
2011
In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in identifying and characterizing the yeast populations associated with diverse types of table olive elaborations because of the many desirable technological properties of these microorganisms. In this work, a total of 199 yeast isolates were directly obtained from industrial green table olive fermentations and genetically identified by means of a RFLP analysis of the 5.8S-ITS region and sequencing of the D1/D2 domains of the 26S rDNA gene. Candida diddensiae, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia membranifaciens were the most abundant yeast species isolated from directly brined Aloreña olives, while for Gordal and Manzanilla cultivars th…
Non-conventional yeasts from fermented honey by-products: Focus on Hanseniaspora uvarum strains for craft beer production
2021
The increasing interest in novel beer productions focused on non-Saccharomyces yeasts in order to pursue their potential in generating groundbreaking sensory profiles. Traditional fermented beverages represent an important source of yeast strains which could express interesting features during brewing. A total of 404 yeasts were isolated from fermented honey by-products and identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Wickerhamomyces anomalus, Zygosaccharomyces bailii, Zygosaccharomyces rouxii and Hanseniaspora uvarum. Five H. uvarum strains were screened for their brewing capability. Interestingly, Hanseniaspora uvarum strains showed growth in presence of ethanol and hop and a more rapid growth…
Relations between multi-resolution analysis and quantum mechanics
2005
We discuss a procedure to construct multiresolution analyses (MRA) of L2 (R) starting from a given seed function h (s) which should satisfy some conditions. Our method, originally related to the quantum mechanical Hamiltonian of the fractional quantum Hall effect, is shown to be model independent. The role of a canonical map between certain canonically conjugate operators is discussed. This clarifies our previous procedure and makes much easier most of the original formulas, producing a convenient framework to produce examples of MRA. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.
Representative champagne wine extracts for gas chromatography olfactometry analysis
1997
Gas chromatography olfactometry (GCO) analysis has proved to be a powerful method to determine key compounds of food aroma, but up to now few papers involving this technique in wine aroma studies were published. An accurate representation of the olfactory quality of the extracts is necessary to ensure the reliability of the conclusions resulting from such analyses. Three commercial champagne wines were used for this study. The champagne wine extracts were obtained from three different extraction methods: adsorption on XAD resins, solvation in dichloromethane, and extraction by demixing ethanol. Thus the extracts were tested by a panel trained on champagne wines, using a profile descriptive…
Etude d'une microflore levurienne champenoise
1982
<p style="text-align: justify;">Pendant quatre années consécutives, on a suivi en Champagne, l'évolution de la microflore levurienne depuis la baie de raisin jusqu'au vin clair. Les résultats montrent une influence sensible sur la microflore, d'une part de certains traitements phytosanitaires et d'autre part des opérations liées à la vendange et au traitement des moûts. Grâce à un milieu de culture électif spécial, les auteurs ont amélioré la séparation des colonies de <em>S. cerevisiae</em> et de <em>S. bayanus</em>.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">+++</p><p style="text-align: justify;">For four consecutive years the evolution of yea…
Resolution of the ATLAS muon spectrometer monitored drift tubes in LHC Run 2
2019
The momentum measurement capability of the ATLAS muon spectrometer relies fundamentally on the intrinsic single-hit spatial resolution of the monitored drift tube precision tracking chambers. Optimal resolution is achieved with a dedicated calibration program that addresses the specific operating conditions of the 354 000 high-pressure drift tubes in the spectrometer. The calibrations consist of a set of timing offsets and drift time to drift distance transfer relations, and result in chamber resolution functions. This paper describes novel algorithms to obtain precision calibrations from data collected by ATLAS in LHC Run 2 and from a gas monitoring chamber, deployed in a dedicated gas fac…
Variances as order parameter and complexity measure for random Boolean networks
2005
Several order parameters have been considered to predict and characterize the transition between ordered and disordered phases in random Boolean networks, such as the Hamming distance between replicas or the stable core, which have been successfully used. In this work, we propose a natural and clear new order parameter: the temporal variance. We compute its value analytically and compare it with the results of numerical experiments. Finally, we propose a complexity measure based on the compromise between temporal and spatial variances. This new order parameter and its related complexity measure can be easily applied to other complex systems.
Evaluation of building heating loads with dimensional analysis: Application of the Buckingham π theorem
2017
Abstract A detailed assessment of building energy performance requires a large amount of input data concerning building typology, environmental conditions, envelope thermophysical properties, geometry, control strategies, and several other parameters. Notwithstanding, the use of specialized software tools poses many challenges in regards to the retrieval of reliable and detailed information, setting a steep learning curve for engineers and energy managers. To speed up the preliminary assessment phase, it might be more convenient to resort to a simplified model that allows the evaluation of heating energy demand with a good level of accuracy and without excessive computational cost or user e…
