Article Synopsis
  • A study investigated the characteristics of PDO wines made from Negroamaro grapes in Southern Italy, focusing on their chemical and biological properties.
  • Using H-NMR spectroscopy and multivariate statistical methods, the research analyzed 39 wine samples for their metabolic profiles and phenolic content, alongside antioxidant activity and effects on liver cells.
  • Results showed that red wines contained higher levels of certain phenolic compounds and exhibited greater antioxidant capacity compared to rosé wines, while also having a more significant impact on cell viability, indicating that winemaking practices lead to variability in wine properties even from the same grape variety.

Article Synopsis
  • The CNO cycle is a key nuclear energy process in stars, particularly significant in hydrostatic hydrogen burning at temperatures between 20 to 80 MK.
  • This study reports the first direct measurements of the resonance strength of the ^{17}O(p,γ)^{18}F reaction, revealing a strength about twice as high as previously documented.
  • The findings enhance our comprehension of oxygen isotopic ratios observed in red giant stars and in O-rich presolar grains, confirming consistency with earlier results from different reaction channels.

Article Synopsis
  • - Understanding the decay properties of the Hoyle state in carbon nuclei is crucial for calculating how much carbon is produced in red-giant stars.
  • - This paper presents a new, nearly background-free method to measure the decay ratio of the Hoyle state, utilizing advanced techniques for detecting charged particles.
  • - The study introduces a bidimensional map to improve measurement accuracy, providing a significant value for the radiative branching ratio and addressing discrepancies from recent research findings.

In 2013, an outbreak of (Xf) was identified for the first time in Europe, in the extreme south of Italy (Apulia, Salento territory). The locally identified subspecies turned out to be lethal for olive trees, starting an unprecedented phytosanitary emergency for one of the most iconic cultivations of the Mediterranean area. Xf (Xfp) is responsible for a severe disease, the olive quick decline syndrome (OQDS), spreading epidemically and with dramatic impact on the agriculture, the landscape, the tourism and the cultural heritage of this region.

: This three-year clinical trial aimed to demonstrate that only the signaling vesicles produced by ADSCa, containing mRNA, microRNA, growth factors (GFs), and bioactive peptides, provide an advantage over classical therapy with adipose disaggregate to make the tissue regeneration technique safer due to the absence of interfering materials and cells, while being extremely minimally invasive. The infiltration of disaggregated adipose nanofat, defined by the Tonnard method, for the regeneration of the dermis and epidermis during physiological or pathological aging continues to be successfully used for the presence of numerous adult stem cells in suspension (ADSCa). An improvement in this method is the exclusion of fibrous shots and cellular debris from the nanofat to avoid inflammatory phenomena by microfiltration.
