Convergence of prices on the pig market in selected European Union countries. Case study
2022
Due to its specificity, animal production depends to a lesser extent than plant production on agrometeorological conditions. Interdependence between the prices of animal products and climatic conditions manifests itself primarily through the fodder markets, which determine the profitability of animal breeding and keeping. The process of economic integration should contribute to a decline in price differentiation between European Union (EU) countries. In the case of the pig market, however, it is necessary to bear in mind the pig cycle, which particularly affects the supply of livestock and their prices. The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) currently implemented is not adapted to the turbule…
Attitudes and beliefs towards alcohol minimum pricing in Western Australia
2018
Modelling data have provided good evidence to support the efficacy of a minimum pricing policy for alcoholic beverages as a means to reduce alcohol consumption and risky and harmful drinking. The aim of the present study was to investigate attitudes and beliefs towards a minimum price policy for alcohol among members of the general public in Western Australia (WA). The study also explored what factors might promote acceptance of the policy. Eleven focus groups, comprising participants from a broad range of backgrounds in WA, were conducted. Using a facilitator-administered semi-structured interview schedule participants discussed their beliefs about the policy and how its acceptability migh…

Tradizione e innovazione nell'ambiente costruito di area mediterranea
2011
The researches of the Ph.D in Building Engineering: Tradition and Innovation, focus on the issues related to the design methods, processes and materials of the historical and contemporary built environment. Some of these researches give a disciplinary contribution to the knowledge of the Mediterranean area.
La Valutazione in itinere
2011
Questo capitolo tratta la valutazione in itinere e il monitoraggio delle policies distinguendone i vari ambiti: parlamentare, normativo, organizzativo ( del personale e delle strutture), finanziario dell'implementazione, dei risultati di prodotto e dei risultati d'impatto. Ci si sofferma inoltre sugli interventi di correzione in corso di attuazione delle politiche pubbliche e infine sul benchmarking. This chapter deals with the ongoing evaluation and monitoring of policies, distinguishing the various areas: parliamentary, regulatory, organizational (of personnel and structures), financial implementation, product results and impact results. We also focus on corrective measures in the course …
La ricezione di Leonardo Sciascia. Il viaggio dell'opera nello spazio e nel tempo attraverso la collezione Leonardo Sciascia - recensioni
2020
In un ambito, come quello degli studi sciasciani, inevitabilmente imperniato sulla relazione tra scrittura e memoria intesa come strumento di conoscenza del reale e di svelamento delle «storture», urge ricercare un’osservazione della produzione che tenga primariamente in considerazione il lettore in quanto principale destinatario dell’intenzione autoriale. La complessità di restituzione della fortuna di Leonardo Sciascia è cagionata non solo dai molteplici volti e piani che concorrono a delinearne la figura (intellettuale, letterato, politico, collaboratore editoriale) e l’opera (favolistica, poetica, saggistica, narrativa, pamphlettistica, romanzesca, giallistica, documentaria), ma anche d…
Context-dependent Pax-5 repression of a PU.1/NF-κB regulated reporter gene in B lineage cells
2001
Enhancers located in the 3' end of the locus in part regulate immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene expression. One of these enhancers, HS 1,2, is developmentally regulated by DNA binding proteins like NF-kappaB, Pax-5 and the protein complex NF-alphaP in B lineage cells. Here we report that NF-alphaP is the ets protein PU.1. A glutathione-S-transferase (GST)-pulldown assay demonstrated that PU.1 can physically interact with NF-kappaB in solution. Experiments in COS cells showed that PU.1 and NF-kappaB (p50/c-Rel) can activate transcription of an enhancer linked reporter gene. The paired domain protein Pax-5 has previously been shown to repress enhancer-dependent transcription. Additional c…
Production of cecropin A in transgenic rice plants has an impact on host gene expression.
2008
Summary Expression of the cecropin A gene in rice confers resistance to the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae. In this study, a polymerase chain reaction-based suppression subtractive hybridization approach was used to generate a cDNA macroarray from the elite japonica rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivar ‘Senia’. Gene expression studies revealed that the expression of components of the protein secretory and vesicular transport machinery is co-ordinately activated at the pre-invasive stage of infection of rice by the blast fungus. Comparisons of gene expression between wild-type and cecropin A plants revealed the over-expression of genes involved in protection against oxidative stress in tran…
Determination Aspects of Possible Purchasing Prices for Blue Mussel Products from the Baltic Sea
2019
Demand for marine products has been relatively high and is increasing in most of countries. With higher demand for higher-value and protein-rich products population is looking for other sources that could be protein-rich products and might be substitute for fish products. Blue mussel contains proteins and minerals therefore it might become as food and feed ingredient and supplement product for food. Experience in many countries world-wide where mussel production is more developed has indicated that important aspect in realisation of the production is effective marketing. The following research methods were used in the research: studies of scientific publications on blue mussel price and fac…
La ‘collezione Fagan’, le sculture di Tindari e la nascita del Museo dell’Università di Palermo
2015
The purchase of the “Fagan’s marbles” (1819) was a turning point in the birth of the Archaeological Museum of Palermo (Museo dell’Università) not so much because of its intrinsic value, but because the debate fostered in Sicily by the “Fagan affair” articulated the need for a more effective system for preservation of cultural heritage. A systematic review of the archival documents and 19th century literature, and of the statues and inscriptions said to be from the Fagan collection, from Fagan’s own excavations at Tyndaris (1809), and generically from Tyndaris, allows to identify the ancient marbles found in Tyndaris both by Fagan and in other circumstances (later scattered and confused), an…
