An Investigation of the Seasonal Pattern of Mannitol Content in Deciduous and Evergreen Species of the Oleaceae Growing in Northern Sicily
2002
In several species of the Oleaceae, mannitol, already present at considerable levels, accumulates in response to stress. This family comprises both deciduous and evergreen species, and we investigated the role of mannitol in deciduous malacophyll and evergreen sclerophyll species growing under the same conditions in the field. The relationship between mannitol content and changes in rainfall or temperature was also studied. The mannitol content of leaves of Fraxinus ornus L., F. angustifolia Vahl., Olea europaea L. and Phillyrea media L. was determined by gas chromatography. Leaf samples were collected once a month for 1 year. In the two ash species, the seasonal pattern of mannitol content…
Briganti, Longhi und «La Maniera italiana» (1961)
2022
Due inedite testimonianze di Giuliano Briganti e Roberto Longhi gettano luce sul ruolo che lo storico dell'arte assume tanto nella fase di raccolta del materiale iconografico, quanto nella definizione della 'temperatura' del colorito durante la fase di stampa. Il Manierismo, così come si presenta nel volume che Briganti pubblica nel 1961 con Editori Riuniti (Roma) e Verlag der Kunst (Dresden), è un'avanguardia decadentista dal cromatismo inquietante e freddo. Two previously unpublished testimonies by Giuliano Briganti and Roberto Longhi shed light on the role of the art historian in both the collection of iconographic material and the definition of the 'temperature' of colour during the pri…
Encapsulation of Alcohol Dehydrogenase in Mannitol by Spray Drying
2014
The retention of the enzyme activity of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) has been studied in various drying processes such as spray drying. The aim of this study is to encapsulate ADH in mannitol, either with or without additive in order to limit the thermal denaturation of the enzyme during the drying process. The retention of ADH activity was investigated at different drying temperatures. When mannitol was used, the encapsulated ADH was found inactive in all the dried powders. This is presumably due to the quick crystallization of mannitol during spray drying that resulted in the impairment of enzyme protection ability in comparison to its amorphous form. Maltodextin (dextrose equivalent = 11)…
Natural resins: chemical constituents and medicinal uses
2011
Plants and their exudates are used worldwide for the treatment of several diseases and novel drugs continue to be developed through phytochemical research. There are more than 20,000 species of high vegetables, used in traditional medicines that are sources of potential new drugs. Following the modern medicine and drug research advancing, chemically synthesized drugs have replaced plants as the source of most medicinal agents in industrialized countries. However, in developing countries, the majority of the world’s population cannot afford pharmaceutical drugs and use their own plant based indigenous medicines. Several exudates from plants are well-known in folk medicine since ancient time,…

El management de las conductas socioemocionales. Una aproximación teórica y empírica desde el caso de los agentes de "contact centers"
2020
How is a specific type of emotion-related work conducts formed today? What principles guide these conducts and what effects do they have on those who work? The study of Contact Center agents allows us to understand how a set of personal qualities such as patience and good treatment of others, certain desires and personal impulses or even intimate sensations such as anguish or individual expectations have become managerialized emotions that end up modifying the inner attitudes of these agents. Within this framework, we propose a theoretical approach that integrates the work of Weber, Foucault and Elias, which invites us to reflect on a socio-emotional manner of leading one?s life (Lebensfu?h…
Seasonal pattern of mannitol and malate accumulation in leaves of two manna ash species (Fraxinus ornus L. and F. angustifolia Vahl) growing in Sicily
2002
The content of mannitol and malate was assayed enzimatically during spring, summer and autumn, in leaves of two species of ash traditionally cultivated in Sicily for the extraction of manna. The results suggest that in these species, under the local field conditions, mannitol has a more relevant role than malate in the response to summer drought.

Structural features of the human bradykinin B2 receptor probed by agonists, antagonists, and anti-idiotypic antibodies
1993
The human bradykinin B2 receptor belongs to the family of G-protein-coupled receptors. To characterize the receptor protein, we have solubilized the membranes of cultured human foreskin fibroblasts bearing the B2 receptor. Affinity cross-linking of the solubilized receptor with the labeled agonist, 125I-Tyr0-bradykinin, or the labeled antagonist, 125I-(4-hydroxy-phenyl-propionyl)-HOE140, revealed major bands of apparent molecular mass of 69 kDa in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions, and of 59 kDa under non-reducing conditions. A 1000-fold molar excess of each of the unlabeled ligands quenched the specific labeling suggesting that the agonist and the antagonist …
