Determination of terpene alcohols in Sicilian Muscat wines by HS-SPME-GC-MS.
2013
Muscat is a grape family used to obtain several sweet, aromatic white dessert wines common in the Mediterranean area. Currently, three Sicilian cultivars (all classified DOC) are known: 'Moscato di Siracusa' the oldest and very rare today; 'Moscato di Noto', a modern derivative of the first and finally 'Moscato di Pantelleria', now the most common. This study concerns the volatile profile of 15 different Sicilian Muscat wines produced in different years using HS-SPME-GC-MS. In particular, four fundamental terpene alcohols (linalool, geraniol, nerol and citronellol) were considered. The principal aim was to study the evolution of aromatic compounds in wine during aging, and the information o…
Development and characterization of essential oil component-based polymer films: a potential approach to reduce bacterial biofilm
2013
The development of new polymeric materials aimed to control the bacterial biofilm appears to be an important practical approach. The goal of the present study was to prepare and characterize poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) copolymer (EVA) films containing citronellol, eugenol, and linalool and evaluate their efficiency on growth and biofilm formation of Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in monospecies and dual species. The results showed that the addition of oil components influenced the elastic modulus (15 % decrease), the tensile stress (30 % decrease), the elongation at break (10 % increase), and the co…
Organocatalytic α-Methylenation of Aldehydes: Preparation of 3,7-Dimethyl-2-Methylene-6-Octenal

ChemInform Abstract: Total Synthesis of (-)-Hymenosetin.
2016
Hymenosetin (I) and its N-methyl analogue are prepared in 11 and 8 steps, respectively, from citronellal employing an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction as the key step.
Influence of different dehydration levels on volatile profiles, phenolic contents and skin hardness of alkaline pre-treated grapes cv Muscat of Alexa…
2020
A dehydration experiment was carried out on Vitis vinifera L. cv Muscat of Alexandria (synonym Zibibbo) following the process for the production of renowned special dessert wines produced on Pantelleria island (Sicily, Italy). Harvested berries were pre-treated in a sodium hydroxide dipping solution (45 g/L, dipped for 185 s, 25 °
La Reggia di Venaria Reale in Italy and Palacio Real de Aranjuez in Spain: history, restoration and significance, comparative study between Two Royal…
2017
La investigación relaciona dos sitios reales, La Reggia di Venaria Reale en Italia y el Palacio Real de Aranjuez en España, confrontando su desarrollo histórico y arquitectónico, las obras de restauración llevadas a cabo, los criterios para su inclusión en la Lista de Patrimonio Mundial y su uso hoy en día como museos. El estudio comparativo muestra cómo ambos palacios se usaban inicialmente como residencias de caza en lugares con abundancia de agua y pesca. Además, los dos están ubicados cerca de las capitales políticas de su tiempo; esto es, Turín y Madrid. El hecho que el mismo arquitecto – Filippo Juvarra estuviera presente en ambas residencias reales contribuye a las similitudes, y en …
Assessment of synthetic chemicals for disruption of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus attraction in an urban environment
2012
The red palm weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus Olivier (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), is currently one of the most severe pests of Canary palms in urban areas of Mediterranean countries and date palms in cultivated areas of the Middle East. RPW aggregation pheromone can be implemented for both monitoring and mass trapping however risks of RPW 'spillover' onto palms is of great concern. Aim of this work was to discover repellent semiochemicals for RPW population management in urban environments. For this purpose we conducted electroantennographic (EAG) screenings of 17 commercially available synthetic compounds, representing three groups of plant volatiles (isoprenoids, phenyl propanoid …
