Dinamiche microbiche durante le fermentazioni delle olive da tavola siciliane

Evoluzione della microflora durante il processo fermentativo “Sivigliano” di olive da tavola “Nocellara del Belice”
2008
Una lavorazione tipo “Sivigliano” di olive della varietà “Nocellara del Belice”, provenienti da coltura in irriguo e non, è stata sottoposta a monitoraggio chimico-fisico e microbiologico periodico sino al 150° giorno di fermentazione. La tecnologia adottata su tre repliche da 500 Kg ha previsto l’aggiunta di soda a 2,2°Bè a scopo di deamarizzare le olive in bagno alcalino e sei lavaggi sequenziali allo scopo di neutralizzare l’alcalinità, al termine dei quali si è provveduto alla colmatura con salamoia concentrata a 10°Bé. Il monitoraggio del pH e della concentrazione di zuccheri riduttori ha evidenziato il buon andamento del processo fermentativo per entrambe le tesi considerate, sebbene …
Bactrocera oleae. Fattori naturali di controllo
2019
Bactrocera oleae. Natural control factors. Natural control factors (parasitoids and climatic factors) influencing the olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae, are analysed comparing two different areas of cultivated and wild olives, Sicily and the Western Cape of South Africa. Bactrocera oleae has a similar level of parasitization in both areas, much higher in wild olives than in cultivated ones. Climatic conditions are much more important than climatic factors, influencing the growth of olive fruit fly populations, producing a higher level of infestation in more humid and rainy productive seasons.

C18 alkyl-modified silica: A suitable tool for olive biophenol green extraction
2017
Abstract A clean and straightforward methodology to assess the value of olive mill wastewater (OMWW) samples as well as to obtain biophenol-rich oils that can find employment in a variety of cosmetic, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical products is described. The method employs chromatographic spherical organosilica microparticles, coupled to advanced analytical techniques. OMWW samples obtained in Sicily from two different organically grown cultivars during the exceptional 2015/2016 olive oil season were analyzed, leading us to establish the conditions for optimal extraction of hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol.
Phenolic profiles of olive mill wastewaters treated by membrane filtration systems
2014
BACKGROUND Olive mill wastewater is an important by-product obtained after olive oil extraction. In this investigation, the phenolic composition of olive mill wastewater treated with a semi-industrial membrane filtration system, including ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis modules, was studied. In particular, untreated olive mill wastewater was compared with the permeate and the concentrate fractions of each filtration step. RESULTS 3,4-(dihydroxyphenyl) ethanol and p-(hydroxyphenyl) ethanol were the main compounds of all olive mill wastewater analyzed. A total of 32 compounds, detected at 240 or 280 nm by HPLC-DAD, were considered for phenol quantification. Ultrafiltration reduced phenol …
A new By-Product enriched in phenolic compounds, evaluated by UHPLC-HRMS, from olive mill wastewater
Development of Methods for Olive Oil Quality Evaluation
2012
In this work, a simple and quick method for olive oil classification according to its quality grades, based on direct infusion ESI–MS and LDA, was developed. Moreover, mixtures of EVOO and VOO, and binary mixtures of these two oils with olive oils of lower quality grade have been also evaluated using this methodology and MLR and PLS data treatment.
OLIVE OILS FROM THE MEDITERRANEAN BASIN
2021
Sicily, located in the center of the Mediterranean basin, has represented for centuries a meeting point between different civilizations that have contributed to creating a wide genetic diversification of the Sicilian olive heritage, which has led to an improvement in the quality of the olive trees. In Sicily, today this diversification is comparable with other typical varieties of the Mediterranean basin, especially from an analytical point of view. Two international varieties were analyzed such as Arbequina and Koroneiki, two main Sicilian varieties such as Biancolilla and Nocellare del Belice, two minor varieties in the Sicilian varietal panorama such as Crastu and Tonda Iblea and finally…
