Compositions and Sensory Characterization of Olive Oils from CentralWestern Sicily
In Sicily, olive has been cultivated since ancient times and its germplasm is characterized by a wide genetic diversity that could be related to its domestication and spread in ancient times, and to some reproductive biological peculiarities as self-incompatibility. In this research, EVOO of Sicilian heritage such as Nocellara del Belice, Biancolilla, Biancolilla centinara and Passulunara, was been investigated. The assessment regards main chemical-physical parameters and sensory profles, based on the olfactory and gustatory characteristics. Samples were obtained from Bona Furtuna farm (Corleone, C-W Sicily), equipped with a continuous two and half phases cold extraction system. Results sho…
Effects of the foal at the milking and dietary supplementation with extra virgin olive oil on jennet milk production
2009
The effects of the foal at the milking and the extra virgin olive oil supplementation in the diet, on the milk obtained by 12 Ragusana jennets were studied. The jennets were each fed 3.5+1.5 kg/d of concentrate+bran, and hay ad libitum. They were divided into 2 equal groups with one group receiving an additional dietary supplement of 100 ml/d of olive oil. Milk was collected at day 20 post foal- ing and every 15-18 d for 5 times. At each collection period jennets were milked 4-times per day. At 07:30 h foals were separated from the jennets and after a 4 hour interval were milked manually (1MNF;1st milking, foal absent). At the end of the 1MNF, each jennet was milked again, with the foals ke…

Methods: All these characteristics are key factors to EVOO quality, thus the chemical composition of these many health-promoting compounds, such as unsaturated fatty acids (which are also the major c…
Una habitación propia en los márgenes de la cultura
2006
El texto está enteramente dedicado a “Una habitación propia” de Virginia Woolf. En primer lugar, se repasan las dificultades que han pesado históricamente sobre las mujeres con vocación de escritoras y a las que alude la autora. Después, se presta atención a una de las tesis centrales de la teoría literaria contenida en este libro, a saber, la idea de que las grandes mentes creadoras de la literatura han sido esencialmente andróginas. A la luz de este principio se comparan las figuras de dos de las novelistas más sobresalientes del siglo XIX: Charlotte Brontë y Jane Austen. Se hace referencia, por último, a la necesidad, tanto simbólica como real, de que las mujeres dispongan de una habitac…
