Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) in Volcano island (Aeolian archipelago) mud utilized for therapeutic purpose
2007
This paper examines the possible presence, distribution, nature and sources of 18 Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) as constituents of the mud pools collected in Vulcano Aeolian Island. PAH are important from environmental and toxicological point of view. Analysis was performed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) in selected ion monitoring (SIM). The total concentration of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons ranged from 112 to 154 μ g/Kg of dry matrix. The volcanic mud, used for therapeutic purposes, are moderately contaminated.

New Insight on Archaeological Metal Finds, Nails and Lead Sheathings of the Punic Ship from Battle of the Egadi Islands
2023
The wreck of the Punic ship exhibited at the Archaeological Park of Lilybaeum (Marsala, Italy) is a unique example in the world. In this paper, the investigation of some metal finds (30 nails and 3 fragments of sheathings) belonging to the wreck of the Punic ship is reported. Portable X-ray fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy allowed us to identify the elements and compounds constituting them and make some deductions about their composition. X-ray diffractometry, polarised optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy of the collected micro-samples allowed us to explain the degradation that occurred in the underwater environment.
La Luce nell'Archeologia: Uno strumento di Comunicazione
2008
La luce artificiale, continuum della luce naturale, è un efficace materiale plasmato dalle mani dell’esperto sia per orientare l’attenzione dell’osservatore e per mettere a fuoco temi o circoscrivere particolarità, sia, all’opposto e in negativo, per sottolineare l’effetto della sua assenza o la sua impalpabilità.
Il web per la cultura. Dalla digital identity alla progettazione dei servizi in rete.
2006
Negli ultimi decenni è in atto una trasformazione nell’ambito dei beni culturali definibile come un processo di apertura dei luoghi della cultura (musei, siti archeologici, biblioteche, etc.) verso l’esterno, determinato dalle istituzioni stesse, con il loro differente modo di intendere la conservazione e di gestire la fruizione del patrimonio storico-artistico e dal sistema dei fruitori, con la loro diversa domanda del prodotto culturale, che si svolge in tempi e modi differenti rispetto al passato. D’altra parte, gli studiosi della cybercultura segnalano che il nostro tempo, con l’incalzante introduzione di nuove tecnologie e strumenti, apparterrebbe in realtà solo agli albori di una rivo…

Mass spectrometry coupled to chromatography systems and cultural heritage: a case study on the content of an ancient jar
2009
In this chapter an introduction to mass spectrometry will be given, with particular reference to mass spectrometry coupled to chromatography systems. Further some mass spectrometry applications in the field of cultural heritage will be briefly reported and discussed. Finally a experimental investigation on the content of an ancient jar will be reported. Together with experimental details a description of the techniques adopted, results obtained and forthcoming experiments will be also given.

Archaeometric characterization and 3D survey: new perspectives for monitoring and valorization of Morgantina silver Treasure (Sicily)
2015
The Morgantina silver Treasure belonging to the collections of the Archaeological Museum of Aidone (Sicily) were involved in a 3D survey and diagnostics campaign for monitoring over time of the finds, in anticipation of their temporary transfer to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, for a period of four years. According to a multidisciplinary approach, it has been developed a scientific and methodological protocol based on non-invasive techniques to achieve a complete and integrated knowledge of the precious items, of their conservation state and increasing their valorisation. All acquired data, i.e. 3D models, UV fluorescence and X-Ray images and chemical information, will be made …
