SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITY

Principal topics of study

Molluscs and crustaceans

- performance in aquaculture

- relations between origin of product, quality and deterioration during storage

- identification of new areas for aquaculture not previously involved in production

- quality assessment of invasive allocthonous species established in many parts of Italy for their commercialisation as a containment strategy

- application of detoxification techniques to enable marketing of products outside the fishing season

- behaviour, welfare and problems related to animals in captivity

- evaluation of nutritional quality of algal biomass produced by innovative methods on growth performance of larval stages

with reference to species traditionally raised in Italian aquaculture (mussel) and of potential interest for aquaculture (abalone, cupped oyster, flat oyster, small clam Tapes decussatus) or for commercialisation (Louisiana red swamp crayfish).

Fish

Research focused on:

- analysis of more ethical innovative methods of stunning and killing fish that safeguard product quality

- relationship between stress parameters at death and changes in tuna quality in the pre-rigor stage and during shelf life

- identification of optimal sensorial, nutritional and freshness parameters characterising the quality of fish products

- definition of the main indicators of dynamic quality in various fish species of commercial interest

- evaluation of effects of diet on quality (including healthiness) and changes during shelf life obtained by diets with high levels of plant proteins in partial or total replacement of fish meal.

Problems of environmental sustainability. Research activity has consisted in participation in several national and European projects, some of which are still underway, tackling the problems of invasive species and links between the spread of alien species and aquaculture. Some research regarded the genetic, morphofunctional and productive characterisation of various fish species present in natural river environments of Florence Province, in order to plan protection and restoration for optimisation of production and valorisation of germplasm.
