Dear Reader, 

this special section of ACTA IMEKO is dedicated to a 
selection of papers related to the International Conference 
IMEKOFOODS “Metrology Promoting Objective and 
Measurable Food Quality and Safety”, which took place in 
Benevento (Italy) on 2015, organised by the University of 
Sannio, ENEA (the Italian National Agency for New 
Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development) 
and the IMEKO TC 23 “Metrology in Food and Nutrition”. 
The general objective is to promote the discussion, the 
scientific debate and the encounter between the different 
realities that revolve around the "world of measures", 
promoting the harmonization and integration and addressing 
the "world of research" to the emerging needs of the civil 
society and the productive sectors. In particular, this issue 
contains 2 papers representing the extended versions and 
advancements of selected papers presented at the 2nd 
IMEKOFOODS Conference. 

The first paper describes the application of a catalytic fuel by 
researchers from the Department of Chemistry of the 
University  of  Rome  “La Sapienza”  (Italy)   to  determine  the  

 

 

 

ethanol content in several samples of commercial wines, beers 
and hard liquor drinks and its comparison with two other 
conventional biosensors, based on catalase or alcohol oxidase 
enzyme respectively.  

The second contribution describes a cooperative study 
performed by different research institutes from Portugal 
(INSA, CERENA, Inst. Superior Te ́cnico, Escola Superior de 
Hotelaria e Turismo do Estoril), focused on the determination 
of Acrylamide in Portuguese Bread by UPLC- MS/MS and the 
association of the acrylamide content with the place of 
production, formulation, flour quality and the varieties of 
processing techniques.  

I would like to thank all those who contributed to this issue 
and made possible its realisation: the authors, the reviewers, the 
layout editors, and the journal managers. 

Hoping you will have a fruitful and interesting reading! 
 

Claudia Zoani
