    Abstract The Jewish community archive in Pisa owns a vast collection of documents and manuscripts that date back centuries. These documents contain valuable genealogical information, including birth, marriage, and death records. This paper aims to describe the preliminary results of the Archivio Storico della Comunita Ebraica di Pisa (ASCEPI) project, with a focus on the extraction of data from the Nati, Morti e Ballottati (NMB) Registry document in the archive. The NMB Registry contains about 1900 records of births, deaths, and balloted individuals within the Jewish community in Pisa. The study uses a semiautomatic pipeline of digitization, transcription, and Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to extract personal data such as names, surnames, birth and death dates, and parental names from each record. The extracted data are then used to build a knowledge base and a genealogical tree for a representative family, Supino. This study demonstrates the potential of using NLP and rule-based techniques to extract valuable information from historical documents and to construct genealogical trees.

    Abstract We investigated the breeding behaviour of Bearded Vulture Gypaetus barbatus and Golden Eagle Aquila chrysaetos between 2008 and 2011 in the Stelvio National Park (the Alps, Italy), which harbours one of highest densities of wild ungulates in the Alps. Parental care behaviours (incubation and chick brooding, nest attendance, changeover, food provisioning and nestling feeding) were recorded at nests of both species (four Bearded Vulture and 14 Golden Eagle pairs). Differences in investment between sexes and periods were found in both species: the time spent in incubation and nest attendance was higher in females and decreased with the progress of the breeding season (from incubation to post-hatching and to pre-fledging). A significant effect of the interaction between sex and period was also found. Compared to the literature, our results suggest a lower contribution by Bearded Vulture males, whereas Golden Eagle males spent more time in incubation and nestling brooding than reported. The higher investment shown by Golden Eagle males in our study area may be due to the high availability of live prey and ungulate carrion, which could allow males to spend less time in hunting, resulting in more time at the nest. Most changeovers for both species took place in the central hours of the day. No difference in food provisioning was observed between the sexes of the two species, consistent with information available for Bearded Vultures, but not for Golden Eagles. The patterns we found revealed a female-biased investment (unexpected for the Bearded Vulture), although males significantly contributed to nest behaviour, especially during the incubation period (unexpected for Golden Eagles). The large amounts of natural prey and carrion in the study area may contribute to the nest behaviour of these large raptors.

    Abstract An indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to screen sulfonamide residues in food (muscle, eggs, milk and honey) and feed has been developed and validated according to Commission Decision 2002/657/EC. The immunoreagents were appropriately produced to detect a wide range of sulfonamide antibiotic congeners, obtaining half-maximum inhibition concentration (IC50) values below 10 μg L−1 for 11 sulfonamides widely used in veterinary practices. Taking into account the complexity of involved matrices, specific sample preparation protocols have been optimised combining high method throughput with low detectable concentrations. Accordingly, depending on the congener, the obtained detection capabilities (CCβs) were lower or equal to 20 μg kg−1 (muscle, eggs and milk), 10 μg kg−1 (honey) and 2 mg kg−1 (feed). Finally the developed qualitative test was applied to real samples collected within the official monitoring programmes: results exceeding the established screening cut-off were re-analysed with a suitable confirmatory method. The presence of one or more sulfonamides was found in all the suspect screening samples thus demonstrating that the proposed ELISA can be successfully applied in class-specific detection of sulfonamides in food and feed.
