    Abstract Assessing the authenticity of PDO cheeses is an important task because it allows consumer expectations to be fulfilled and guarantees fair competition for manufacturers. A 3-year survey was carried out, analyzing 271 samples of grated Grana Padano (GP) PDO cheese collected on the European market. Previously developed analytical methods based on proteomics approaches were adopted to evaluate the compliance of market samples with selected legal requirements provided by the specification for this cheese. Proteolysis follows highly repeatable pathways in GP cheese due to the usage of raw milk, natural whey starter, and consistent manufacturing and ripening conditions. From selected casein breakdown products, it is possible to calculate the actual cheese age (should be >9 months) and detect the presence of excess rind (should be <18%). Furthermore, due to the characteristic pattern of free amino acids established for GP, distinguishing it from closely related cheese varieties is feasible. Cheese age ranged from 9 to 25 months and was correctly claimed on the label. Based on the amino acid pattern, three samples probably contained defective cheese and there was only one imitation cheese. Few samples (9%) were proven to contain some excess rind. Overall, this survey highlighted that the adopted control parameters can assure the quality of grated GP.

    Abstract We report the formation of "ripple" patterns by the sequential superposition of nonorthogonal surface waves excited by the spontaneous buckling of polymeric bilayers. Albeit of a different nature and micron scale compared to the familiar sedimentary ripples caused by gentle wave oscillations, we find commonalities in their topography, defects, and bifurcations. The patterns are rationalized in terms of a defect density that depends on the relative angle between generations, and a constant in-plane bending angle that depends on skin thickness. A minimal wave summation model enables the design of ripple and checkerboard surfaces by tuning material properties and fabrication process.

  5. Article: Reaction‐Induced Mantle Weakening at High‐Pressure Conditions: An Example From Garnet Pyroxenites of Ulten Zone (Eastern Alps, N Italy)

    Abstract Peridotites of Ulten Zone (Eastern Alps, N Italy) show a transition from coarse protogranular spinel lherzolites to fine‐grained amphibole + garnet peridotites, recorded by the crystallization of garnet coronas around spinel. Pyroxenite veins, transposed along the peridotite foliation, show a similar metamorphic evolution from coarse‐grained (garnet‐free) websterites to fine‐grained garnet websterites. In both peridotites and websterites, garnet previously exsolved from porphyroclastic high‐temperature pyroxenes and later crystallized along the foliation. This evolution has been interpreted to reflect cooling and pressure increase of websterites and host peridotites from spinel‐ to garnet‐facies conditions. Microstructures and crystallographic orientation data indicate that the re‐equilibration of garnet websterites in the garnet stability field occurred during deformation. Porphyroclastic pyroxenes have been interpreted to deform by dislocation glide and creep. In particular, TEM observations indicate the activation of the (100)[010] slip system in orthopyroxene. Core‐and‐mantle microstructures also suggest that dislocation creep was aided by subgrain rotation recrystallization, leading to the formation of neoblastic pyroxenes. These recrystallized grains deformed by diffusion‐accommodated grain boundary sliding, as indicated by the occurrence of quadruple junctions and straight, aligned grain boundaries. The transition from dislocation creep to diffusion creep in websterites was accompanied by the crystallization of garnet along foliation, which triggered the pinning of the recrystallized matrix and stabilized the fine‐grained microtexture for diffusion creep, promoting rheological weakening. Garnet websterites of Ulten Zone thus offer a unique opportunity to investigate the effects of reaction softening during the corner flow in the supra‐subduction lithospheric mantle induced by the descending slab.

    Abstract Purpose: Early non compliance to postoperative ERAS pathway has been reported in 20-30% of patients who underwent elective colon surgery. The aim of the present study is to investigate the possible relationship between early non compliance and postoperative complications.
    Methods: We reviewed a prospective database including 1391 consecutively collected patients undergoing elective colon surgery in 22 Italian hospitals between January 2017 and June 2020. Early compliance to ERAS protocol was assessed on postoperative day (POD) 2. Failure of oral feeding, urinary catheter removal, intravenous fluids stop, and adequate mobilization were indicators of non compliance. Postoperative follow-up was carried out for 30 days after hospital discharge. The association among early postoperative ERAS compliance and the occurrence of complications was assessed with uni- and multivariate analysis.
    Results: A total of 1089 (78.3%) patients had malignancy and minimally invasive surgery was successfully performed in 1174 (84.3%) patients. Postoperative morbidity occurred in 403 (29.0%) patients. At multivariate analysis, male gender, open surgery, and each of the four non compliance indicators on POD 2 were significantly associated to postoperative complications. Morbidity progressively increased from 16.8% in patients with full compliance to ERAS protocol to 47.2% in patients with two non compliance indicators and 69.2% in patients with all four indicators (p < 0.001).
    Conclusions: Early non compliance to ERAS protocol was significantly associated with postoperative morbidity.

    Abstract Inadequate intake of vitamin D is a global health issue related to severe diseases, mainly involving subjects with dark skin pigmentation, patients affected by malnutrition, malabsorption syndromes, or obesity, and elderly people. Some foods fortified with vitamin D have been tested in vivo, but fortification strategies with a global outreach are still lacking. This review is focused on food fortification with vitamin D, with the aim to collect information on (a) formulation strategies; (b) stability during processing and storage; and (c) in vitro bioaccessibility. Approaches to add vitamin D to various foods were analyzed, including the use of free vitamin D, vitamin D loaded in simple and double nanoemulsions, liposomes, casein micelles, and protein nanocapsules. Numerous studies were reviewed to elucidate the impact of food technologies on vitamin D's stability, and mechanisms that lead to degradation were identified-namely, acid-catalyzed isomerization, radical-induced oxidation, and photo-oxidation. There is, however, a lack of kinetic data that allow for the prediction of vitamin D's stability under industrial processing conditions. The roles that lipids, proteins, fibers, and antioxidants play in vitamin bioaccessibility have been clarified in various studies, while future needs include the design of specific food matrices that simultaneously achieve a balance between the long-term stability, bioaccessibility and, ultimately, in vivo functionality of vitamin D.
