Environmental footprint of heavy pig production system

open access: yes, 2023
This study assessed the environmental footprint of the heavy pig production system in Northern Italy, through a Life Cycle Assessment cradle-to-farm gate model, in order to identify practices along the production chain (breeding, post-weaning and fattening phases) possibly associated with the environmental footprint of herds.

Unconventional Superconductivity from Local Spin Fluctuations in the Kondo Lattice

open access: yes, 2013
The explanation of heavy-fermion superconductivity is a long-standing challenge to theory. It is commonly thought to be connected to non-local fluctuations of either spin or charge degrees of freedom and therefore of unconventional type.

Metabolomics evidences plasma and serum biomarkers differentiating two heavy pig breeds

open access: yesAnimal, 2016
In pigs, many production traits are known to vary among breeds or lines. These traits can be considered end phenotypes or external traits as they are the final results of complex biological interactions and processes whose fine biological mechanisms are ...
