The effects of the duration of the artificial photoperiod on the growth parameters and behaviour of heavy pigs
No full textThe results of a trial involving 56 barrows exposed to two artificial photoperiod lengths at 70 lux (14-hour and 8-hour light period) suggest that a daily 14-hour lighting time improve growth parameters and welfare condition of heavy pigs
Osservazioni preliminari sugli effetti del metodo biologico nell'allevamento del suino pesante
No full textTHE EFFECTS OF ORGANIC FARMING METHOD ON HEAVY PIGPRODUCTION. PRELIMINARY RESULTS.In order to evaluate the effects of organic farming method onheavy pig (160 kg BW at slaughtering) productive parameters, atotal of 27 barrows was used and allocated to three groups eachcontaining 9 pigs. Pigs belonging to the control group (T1) were conventionally farmed, while animals of groups T2 and T3were given, according to organic farming rules, a greater space allowance and they were fed organic diets.Our preliminary data indicate that the application of organicfarming method allows satisfactory results and it does not causeany adverse effect either on the main productive parametersof heavy pigs (i.e. growth, feed efficiency, lean meat yield, carcass dissection), or on some qualitative characteristics ofmeat and fat (muscle composition, pH and colour of meat andfatty acid composition of subcutaneous adipose tissue).Riassunto.Per portare un contributo preliminare alla valutazione degli effetti dell’applicazione del metodo biologico sulle prestazioni produttive del suino pesante, è stata condotta un’esperienza utilizzando 27 maschi castrati assegnati a tre tesi sperimentali, ciascuna comprendente 9 soggetti. Nell’ambito della prima tesi (T1), che fungeva da controllo, gli animali sono stati allevati in maniera tradizionale, i soggetti delle tesi T2 e T3 hanno invece potutofruire di un maggiore spazio procapite e sono stati alimentati con diete di tipo “biologico”.L’applicazione del metodo biologico alla produzione del suino pesante ha, nell’ambito della nostra esperienza, fornito risultati complessivamente soddisfacenti senza indurre modificazioninegative dei parametri considerati, rappresentati dalle prestazioni di allevamento (incrementi ponderali e conversione alimentare), di macellazione (resa, tenore in carne magra esezionatura delle carcasse) e da alcune caratteristiche qualitative delle carni (pH, colore, composizione chimica del muscolo, profilo acidico dell’adipe di copertura delle cosce)
Effetti della durata del fotoperiodo artificiale sulle prestazioni di allevamento e sul comportamento del suino pesante
No full textI risultati di una prova condotta su 56 suini maschi castrati sottoposti a due diversi regimi di illuminazione giornaliera a 70 lux di intensità (8 e 14 ore di luce al dì) suggeriscono che un'illuminazione giornaliera di 14 ore migliori la crescita e le condizioni di benessere del suino pesante

Le colpe della cultura pagana: riflessioni sull'Epistola 69b di Giuliano
No full textThe article is a reflection starting from the epistle 89b of the emperor Julian, which is presented as an illuminating document for the reconstruction of the values of the Hellenic civilisation, based on a precise paideutic-religious programme, which takes the form of a kind of canon of praiseworthy and/or inadvisable author
EFFETTI DELL’EPOCA DI SOMMINISTRAZIONE DI UN ALIMENTO COMPLEMENTARE AL LATTE MATERNO SULL’ACCRESCIMENTO E SULLA MORTALITA’ DEI SUINETTI
No full textIn order to optimize the creep-feed supply to suckling piglets, the growth parameters and the mortality rate of 165 piglets (deriving from 16 litters), either receiving a prestarter-feed from the 5th day of life or from the 11th day of life were studied. The earlier availability of the prestarter-feed offered on day 5th did not resulted in any improvement of the growing parameters or health. Piglets receiving the prestarter-feed from day 11th of life showed, in fact, the higher live weight at weaning (P<0.05). In the following experimental phase, lasting 39 days from weaning, this difference was still appreciable (P<0.05). In the light of the rather high cost of the creep-feeding technique, from our data it is suggested that a feed supply from day 11th of life is more profitable for piglets than an earlier feed administration from day 5th of life
La donna, il diritto e il patrimonio nella testimonianza libaniana
No full textIn this study about the role of Antiochian imperial women I aim at investigating the interrelationship between law and society and at analysing the way social changes lead to birth of new laws, in the period marked by a gradual replacement inside the Mediterranean world. Leafing through the numerous pages dedicated to Antiochene society in the 4th century by an author such as Libanius, who has always set himself up as a strenuous defender of the Hellenic tradition and champion of the ancient civic ideal, and who was influenced less than anyone else by the attraction of the new ideas of Christianity, a pattern emerges thanks to which we can understand the degree of consideration to which women being was held in Late Antiquity, coinciding with a new morality of the couple, which tended to make marriage a conjugal community
JULIEN : LES ANNÉES PARISIENNES
No full textThis article intends to scrutinize in what ways Julian’s stay in Gaul as a Caesar were decisive in Julian’s political
and military education, and whether a specific ruling style and manner may be detected in the Parisian years of
Julian’s government. Relying on a critical analysis of the documentation (Julian himself, Mamertinus, Ammianus,
Libanios), the author examines the military and civilian aspects of Julian’s training as an apparently inexperienced
ruler but quick learner. She carries out a prosopographical study of the Caesar’s circle and the administrative staff
which was then on duty, combining friendly and hostile persons. Gaul offered him a training ground and he became
even the experimenter of Paris as a capital. An attempt is made at reconstructing Julian’s vision of and attitude
towards barbarians, Celts and Romans, and how he perceived Gaul and Paris (taking in account what was Paris
like in his days in the light of recent archaeological research). The Parisian years are a valuable test for checking
Julian’s adaptability – and its limits –to life in a non hellenic worl
Presupposti culturali nella formulazione delle domande di medici ginecologi a pazienti migranti
No full textThe paper presents analyses conducted on a corpus of (audio) recorded and fullytranscribed doctor-patient interactions with native and non native patients, carriedon in a outward department of Obstetrics and Gynechology in a public hospital inItaly. The focus is on the doctors’ strategies employed to elicit information fromthe patients with particular regards to the patient’s job status and the likelihood thatshe continues to work during pregnancy. Applying CA principles to the analysis ofboth the sequential structure and the design of the question, the author highlightshow the activity of questioning about the patient’s job includes larger sequenceswith non native patients as compared to native patients, in which not only thepatient’s physical conditions but also her juridical status is questioned. The paperfinally discusses the implications of the analyses on the doctors’ training on onehand, and on the social representation of the migrant identity on the other.The paper presents analyses conducted on a corpus of doctor-patient interactions that was carried on in a outward department of Obstetrics and Gynechology in a public hospital in Italy. The corpus includes medical visits with both native and non native patients, (audio) recorded and fully transcribed according to the jeffersonian conventions (Sacks, Schegloff & Jefferson, 1974). We focus on the doctors’ strategies employed to elicit information from the patients with particolar regards to the patient’s job status and the likelihood that she continues to work during pregnancy. Applying Conversation Analytic principles to the analysis of both the sequential structure and the design of the question, the authors highlights how the activity of questioning about the patient’s job includes larger sequences with non native patients as compared to native patients, in which not only the patient’s physical conditions but also her juridical status is questioned. The paper finally discusses the implications of the analyses on the doctors’ training on one hand, and on the social representation of the migrant identity on the other.
