Fonti alimentari di nutrienti in un campione della popolazione italiana: proteine, lipidi, glucidi e aminoacidi
Composition and nutritional value of donkey milk
protein contents were low and milk protein fraction was rich in whey proteins. β-lactoglobulin and α-lactalbumin were the most important whey proteins detected. Furthermore, donkey milk was found to be richer in the proteose-peptone fraction than cow milk. The high content of lactose can be considered one of the characteristics of this milk. The glycemic index value and the Energy content indicated that donkey milk may be considered a low calorie product, potentially evaluable as an easily digestible and highly bio-available carbohydrate supplement
Applicazione dei dati di composizione degli alimenti ad uno studio epidemiologico: confronto tra le stime ottenute con due diversi database
A feasibility study on smartphone accelerometer-based recognition of household activities and influence of smartphone position
Obesity and physical inactivity are the most important risk factors for chronic diseases. The present study aimed at (i) developing and testing a method for classifying household activities based on a smartphone accelerometer; (ii) evaluating the influence of smartphone position; and (iii) evaluating the acceptability of wearing a smartphone for activity recognition
Banca Dati di Composizione degli Alimenti per Studi Epidemiologici in Italia
BDA is a compiled database: food composition data come from pre-existing sources (food composition tables and databases, scientific articles, etc.) and not by ad-hoc laboratory analyses. Particular attention was paid to obtain a suitable tool for epidemiological studies: selection of food representative of those consumed at national level, with analytical data based on Italian food, whenever available. In case of missing Italian data, foreign sources were used, to provide a nutritional profile as complete as possible. Finally, considerable efforts have been put in creating an easily accessible tool. The details of the methodology used in the first version are reported in the book published in 1998 (download the book).
In 2012 the BDA compilation process has been reviewed and certified by EuroFIR (European Food Information Resource Network – www.eurofir.org), with the aim of verifying the adherence to standards and operating procedures that ensure quality and validity of food composition data generated at national and international level. Within this certification process, the BDA group has thus identified all compilation procedures, summarized in an ad hoc flow chart and in the related documentation files
