Persistent Organic Pollutants and Fatty Acid Profile in a Typical Cheese from Extensive Farms: First Assessment of Human Exposure by Dietary Intake
2022
Dairy products represent an important source of beneficial substances for humans. At the same time, they can expose the consumers to environmental contaminants ingested by animals through their diet, influencing their health negatively. This experiment aims to evaluate the risk and benefits related to the consumption of typical stretched cheeses, considering their fatty acid (FA) profile and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) content. Six representative farms, two of them organic, raising Cinisara cattle were selected, considering the typical extensive management systems, based on feeding of natural pasture integrated with concentrate and hay depending on the availability of forage on pas…
The effects of the traditional producing system on physicochemical, microbial and sensory properties of Caciocavallo Palermitano cheese
2015
Caciocavallo Palermitano (CP) is a traditional cheese made with raw milk from cows of Sicilian local breeds fed pasture-based diets in extensive farms (EXT), processed by an artisanal technology (ART) based on wooden tools and the action of native microflora. CP is obtained also in intensive farms (INT) where milk from cows of specialized breeds fed dry diets is transformed by advanced procedures (ADV) using a stainless steel equipment and lactic acid starter cultures. This research was planned to investigate the changes in cheese properties due to production system and ripening., Milk was collected 3 times from an EXT and an INT farm and processed in ART and ADV conditions. The 12 produced…

Caciocavallo Palermitano
2016
The discovery of cheese is a narrative at least 8,000 years old, dating back to the Neolithic era. Yet, after all of these thousands of years we are still finding new ways to combine the same four basic ingredients - milk, bacteria, salt, and enzymes - into new and exciting products with vastly different shapes, sizes, and colors, and equally complex and varied tastes, textures, and, yes, aromas. In fact, after a long period of industrialized, processed, and standardized cheese, cheesemakers, cheesemongers, affineurs, and most of all consumers are rediscovering the endless variety of cheeses across cultures. The Oxford Companion to Cheese is the first major reference work dedicated to chees…
Effetto del regime alimentare delle bovine sulla composizione in acidi grassi del formaggio Caciocavallo Palermitano
2008
Sono stati verificati gli effetti dell’alimentazione al pascolo e dell’integrazione con concentrato sulla composizione in acidi grassi (AG) del Caciocavallo Palermitano. Bovine di razza Cinisara suddivise in 4 gruppi sono state sottoposte ai trattamenti alimentari: PN: pascolo naturale; PMF: pascolo naturale e concentrato a base di mais e favino; POC: pascolo naturale e concentrato a base di orzo e cece; ST: fieno e concentrato in stalla. La dieta ha influenzato la produzione media di latte (P<0,05) e il suo tenore in grasso (P<0,05), ma non ha modificato la resa del latte alla caseificazione e la composizione chimica del formaggio. L’alimentazione al pascolo, con o senza il concentrato, ha…
