Abstract:
Ischemic preconditioning is a complex cardioprotective phenomenon that involves adaptive changes in cells and molecules. This adaptation occurs in a biphasic pattern: an early phase which develops after 1-2 h, and a late phase that develops after 12-24 h. While it is widely accepted that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are strongly involved in triggering ischemic preconditiong, it is not clear if they play a major role in the early or late phase of preconditioning and which are the mechanisms involved.

Abstract:
Il frumento duro [Triticum turgidum (L.) subsp. turgidum (L.) convar. durum (Desf.)] è una coltura di largo uso per la nutrizione umana, in particolare nel bacino del Mediterraneo. Costituisce la principale fonte di semola utilizzata per la produzione di pasta, pane di frumento duro, ma viene utilizzato anche per la produzione di cuscus e burghul. Condizioni ambientali avverse riducono la produzione e influenzano le caratteristiche qualitative della granella. Gli stress che più comunemente colpiscono le piante coltivate consistono in un eccesso o carenza di acqua, eccesso di sale o metal

Abstract:
Il presente lavoro di tesi ha previsto l'utilizzo di 4 tipi di miele proveniente dall'isola lagunare di Sant'Erasmo. L'obiettivo del lavoro è lo sviluppo di un metodo analitico per la caratterizzazione di composti organici di interesse nutraceutico nel miele. Tale obiettivo generale si articola in tre obiettivi specifici: sviluppo di un metodo che permetta la rimozione degli zuccheri pur garantendo l'estrazione degli analiti di interesse, analisi semiquantitativa di alcuni composti di interesse (flavonoidi), analisi qualitativa di composti organici di interesse organolettico o nutraceutico.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the robustness and the versatility of pressurized hot water extraction (PHWE) for a variety of analytes and matrices. Applications discussed include: selective extraction of alkaloids in goldenseal followed by their degradation studies; in-cell clean-up of pesticides in medicinal plants employing custom made molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) sorbents; in-cell pre-concentration followed by desorption of aflatoxins in plants with MIPs; desorption of pesticides from electrospun nanofiber sorbents; and removal of templates from MIPs sorbents.

Grain quality is well known as one of the most interesting breeding objectives in Mediterranean countries. It still has great importance in wheat markets because of the increased interest of the consumers for high-quality staple food such as pasta, couscous and various types of bread. The performance of many quality characteristics depends greatly on environmental conditions and, in this context, organic agriculture could guarantee a durum wheat material with high nutraceutical value for healthy food production and special dietary uses.

Abstract:
Cell membrane plays a crucial role in several biological processes and fatty acids, as structural membrane components and lipid mediators, have well-known protective and regulatory effects. Stress and inappropriate lifestyle, with enhanced free radical production, can induce membrane modifications that can be monitored by fatty acid lipidomics, a powerful diagnostic tool for the follow-up of membrane fatty acid remodeling that can be correlated with different physiological and pathological conditions. The experimental work described in this thesis was initially focused on the fatty acid an

Abstract:
The aim of this PHD project was to study the suitability of flowers as nutraceutical, technological and healthy sources, in order to produce a new food ingredient. A case study for the research, the Rosa botanical species was chosen, because the petals are rich in nutritional compounds and are normally used in gastronomical and phytotherapic field. However the scientific information about their chemical-nutritional and technological properties are, at the moment, fragmentary, in particular because the use of roses as food ingredients are very unconventional.
