Giuseppe Versini, ovvero la chimica per il miglioramento della qualità dei vini e dei distillati
Full text linkViene rivisitato il percorso di sperimentatore di Giuseppe Versini - per molti anni direttore del Laboratorio di Analisi e Ricerche - focalizzando i risultati da lui ottenuti principalmente nei campi dell'enologia, dei distillati, della caratterizzazione varietale, della tracciabilità geografica dei prodotti agroalimentari su base isotopica nonché le ricadute della sua attività, attenta al territorio provinciale e finalizzata al trasferimento tecnologico
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Evaluation of the Impact of an Archaic Protocol on White Wine Free Aroma CompoundsFlavor Chemistry of Wine and Other Alcoholic Beverages
No full textTraditional Georgian wines are produced using long-time skin contact, often in jars of clay in absence of sulfur dioxide and other adjuvants.
Long-time skin maceration white wines are recently produced at industrial level also in Italy to extract more antioxidant phenolic compounds and obtain a possible different taste and varietal flavor development by aging in quite stable conditions. The consumers, even if rather skeptic for the sensory wine character, judge with an emotional appeal these ‘interesting’ wines.
The present research involves mostly wines produced from the Garganega grape variety, which is spread in the Veneto region in northern Italy and it is used to obtain the renowned Soave white wine.
Applying SPE and HS-SPME GC-MS analyses on the free fraction of wine as such we investigated the free aroma variation and compared the products from the typical free-run vinification with those obtained via a skin maceration of several months.
Particular attention has been paid to the prefermentative and varietal compound as C6-alcohols, monoterpenols, benzenoids and norisprenoids, as so as to fermentation derived substances like hydroxyalkyl ethyl esters, lactones, amides, furanols, aryl alcohols like tyrosol and tryptophol, HCA derived ethyl esters, some sulfur compounds, etc.
An important increment of some of these compounds has been already observed in long-time skin fermented wines and some of this variations can be connected to sensorial nuances in agreement with what is reported in the literature.
All the wines have been submitted to descriptive profiling and preference tests.
Finally, this ‘ancient’ vinification method could offer an interesting chance – depending on the variety characteristics – for preparing ‘unusual’, properly aged products
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
