Disentangling individual phases in the hunted vs. farmed meat supply chain : exploring hunters’ perceptions in Italy

Marescotti, Maria Elena ; Demartini, Eugenio ; Gibbert, Michael ; Viganò, Roberto ; Gaviglio, Anna

In: Foods, 2021, vol. 10, no. 1, p. 15 p

The growing body of literature concerning the hunted wild game meat (HWGM) supply chain is mainly focused on the final consumer, while little is known about upstream production processes. Even though the hunter plays a central role here, it is not well understood how hunters themselves perceive their role in the various phases of the production process. The present study explores Italian...

Schwann cells ER-associated degradation contributes to myelin maintenance in adult nerves and limits demyelination in CMT1B mice

Volpi, Vera G. ; Ferri, Cinzia ; Fregno, Ilaria ; Del Carro, Ubaldo ; Bianchi, Francesca ; Scapin, Cristina ; Pettinato, Emanuela ; Solda, Tatiana ; Feltri, M. Laura ; Molinari, Maurizio ; Wrabetz, Lawrence ; D’Antonio, Maurizio

In the peripheral nervous system (PNS) myelinating Schwann cells synthesize large amounts of myelin protein zero (P0) glycoprotein, an abundant component of peripheral nerve myelin. In humans, mutations in P0 cause the demyelinating Charcot-Marie-Tooth 1B (CMT1B) neuropathy, one of the most diffused genetic disorders of the PNS. We previously showed that several mutations, such as the...

Investigating cold based summit glaciers through direct access to the glacier base: a case study constraining the maximum age of Chli Titlis glacier, Switzerland

Bohleber, Pascal ; Hoffmann, Helene ; Kerch, Johanna ; Sold, Leo ; Fischer, Andrea

In: The Cryosphere, 2018, vol. 12, no. 1, p. 401–412

Cold glaciers at the highest locations of the European Alps have been investigated by drilling ice cores to retrieve their stratigraphic climate records. Findings like the Oetztal ice man have demonstrated that small ice bodies at summit locations of comparatively lower altitudes may also contain old ice if locally frozen to the underlying bedrock. In this case, constraining the maximum age...

A strategy to export Swiss wine to Germany : the case of Uvavins-Cave de La Côte

Rattaz, Matthieu ; Rattaz, Matthieu (Dir.)

Mémoire de bachelor : Haute école de gestion de Genève, 2015 ; TDEE 277.

Uvavins - Cave de la Côte is a Swiss based company producing and selling wines in Switzerland and abroad. The relatively high per capita consumption of wine in Switzerland used to allow domestic wine makers to sell the entire production locally without too much difficulty. However, this trend is changing and it has become more challenging to sell Swiss wines to Swiss people. The decrease in...
