New insights into the composition of historical remedies and pharmaceutical formulations: the identification of natural resins and balsams by gas chr…
2020
AbstractThe present paper reports one of the first studies on the identification of natural resins and balsams in modern era drug formulations. Gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was applied to investigate the composition of ancient remedies and pharmaceutical formulations coming from the Spezieria di Santa Maria della Scala in Rome, founded at the end of the seventeenth century by the Discalced Carmelites. The obtained results highlight the presence of complex mixtures containing resinaceous and lipidic-based compounds. Thanks to the detection of characteristic markers, it was possible to identify several natural resins, such as guaiacum resin, ladano resin and scamm…

Headspace Volatile Composition of the Flowers of Caralluma europaea N.E.Br. (Apocynaceae)
2009
The volatile constituents of the flowers of Caralluma (Apteranthes) europaea (Guss.) N.E. Br. (Apocynaceae - Asclepiadoideae) from Lampedusa Island were analyzed by headspace method. The analyses allowed the identification and quantification of 41 compounds. The main components were, among the monoterpenoids, terpinolene (23.3%), a-terpinene (19.1%) and linalool (18.4%), whereas, among the carbonylic compounds the major constituents were heptanal (2.0%), octanoic acid (2.4%) and hexanoic acid (1.7%). It is worth to mention the presence of a nitrogen containing compound, indole (0.8%) and of a sulphur containing compound, dimethylsulphide (t). The compounds found in the flowers of C. europea…
SITES ARCHÉOLOGIQUES ET TOURISME CULTUREL INTÉGRÉ/SITI ARCHEOLOGICI E TURISMO CULTURALE INTEGRATO
2013
Il tema della comunicazione dei beni archeologici in questa sede vuole tentare di comprendere se le nuove tecnologie di comunicazione (ITC) possono diventare parte integrante del processo di comprensione/comunicazione del reperto e del sito nel suo complesso fisico e paesaggistico. In tal ottica la progettazione tecnologica può essere strumento per l'ambientazione del percorso museale, dove le tecnologie di comunicazione non devono risultare invasive e/o preponderanti con grandi istallazioni, ma devono piuttosto supportare il visitatore nel percorso di conoscenza del sito. La convinzione è che le nuove tecnologie se ben inserite ed integrate nel percorso di visita, e se capaci di coinvolger…
La nuova Intesa con la Regione Ecclesiastica Sicilia sui beni culturali ecclesiastici alla luce del sistema concordatario italiano: l’atipicità diven…
2012
The main topic analysed in the essay is the outline of civil ecclesiastical law about the Agreement (Intesa), signed in 2010 by the Regione Siciliana and the Regione Ecclesiastica Sicilia, aimed at the protection, preservation and development of the ecclesiastical cultural heritage. By moving from the specialty of the Sicilian model in regulating and administrating such heritage, and by analyzing its effects on the specific system that regulates the same ecclesiastical component, the primary goal is to focus on the atypical elements carried onto the Agreement, which appear to be connected to the practice of such special prerogatives by the Regional Government; and paying particular attentio…

TESTING OF NANOSTRUCTURED PRODUCTS FOR THE PROTECTION AND CONSOLIDATION OF STONE SURFACES: THE CASE STUDY OF THE TOWER OF PALAZZO ALLIATA IN PALERMO
2016
This study focused on the battlements of the Tower of Palazzo Alliata Pietratagliata in Palermo, which is one of the most important examples of late medieval civil architecture in Sicily. The battlements are made by biocalcarenite and currently affected by a strong desegregation. In order to first characterize the stone some tests have been carried out on small samples collected in situ: chemical and morphological analysis through X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical polarized light microscopy (PLM), determination of total soluble salt content by measuring the conductivity and dosage of the anions and determination of the dimensional distribution of the pores. T…

Halloysite Nanotubes: Interfacial Properties and Applications in Cultural Heritage
2020
The peculiar surfaces of halloysite nanotubes and their biocompatibility are attracting the interest of researchers based on the wide range of attainable applications. The large aspect ratio of this nanotubular material ensures promising properties as a reinforcing agent in polymeric matrixes, such as cellulose and its derivatives, that entail strengthening due to, for instance, aging-induced degradation. The halloysite cavity has a suitable size for hosting a large variety of active species such as deacidifying (calcium hydroxide) and flame retardant agents (fluorinated surfactants) for a controlled and sustained release relevant to the conservation of cultural heritage. Additionally, anio…
