Pena "illegale", giudicato, Corte Europea: dall'affare "Scoppola c. Italia" alle Sezioni Unite "Ercolano"
2018
La crisi del principio di intangibilità del giudicato costituisce il punto di partenza di un'analisi che ha ad oggetto la nota pronuncia "Scoppola c. Italia", con la quale si è affermato a livello convenzionale il principio della retroattività della lex mitior. Molte le implicazioni sul piano della giurisprudenza, le cui sentenze vengono prese in rassegna onde restituire uno scenario che apre al controllo della legalità della pena in executivis, espressione delle nuove direttive votate alla necessaria flessibilizzazione del giudicato. The crisis of the principle of intangibility of the judged constitutes the starting point of an analysis that concerns the well-known dictum "Scoppola v. Ital…
Changes of Structure and Physical-Mechanical Properties in Alloy Steels Thermochemically Treated by Plasma Nitriding
2021
Plasma nitriding is a method of surface modification using a glow discharge technology to introduce nitrogen into the surface of a metal, which subsequently diffuses into the material. The main advantages of plasma nitriding over conventional nitriding processes are: reduced cycle time, controlled growth of the surface layer, elimination of white layer, reduced distortion, no need of finishing, pore-free surfaces and mechanical masks instead of copper plating. The process is especially suitable for complex parts that are intensively solicited by wear, fatigue, contact pressure, shocks, possibly also to corrosion. It is applied in order to bring the metallic products in a state favourable fr…
Assessment of temperature effects on beta-aggregation of native and glycated albumin by FTIR spectroscopy and PAGE: relations between structural chan…
2007
Abstract Structural modifications of bovine serum albumin (BSA) induced by heating, and the involvement of glycation of albumin in such processing were studied by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). For native BSA, heating treatments gave rise to β structures which were amplified to the detriment of α-helix form, and which were associated with increased aggregation. A very high correlation was obtained between FTIR Amide I band evolution and aggregation rate parameters, showing the contribution of β-form in aggregates formation. We further assessed the effect of glycation on protein sensibility to heating treatments. A reductio…
Deciphering metal-induced oxidative damages on glycated albumin structure and function
2014
Background: Metal ions such as copper or zinc are involved in the development of neurodegenerative pathologies and metabolic diseases such as diabetes mellitus. Albumin structure and functions are impaired following metal-and glucose-mediated oxidative alterations. The aim of this study was to elucidate effects of Cu(II) and Zn(II) ions on glucose-induced modifications in albumin by focusing on glycation, aggregation, oxidation and functional aspects. Methods: Aggregation and conformational changes in albumin were monitored by spectroscopy, fluorescence and microscopy techniques. Biochemical assays such as carbonyl, thiol groups, albumin-bound Cu, fructosamine and amine group measurements w…
Speciation of Copper in Enriched Agricultural Lime
2011
Agricultural liming materials are used to lower soil acidity and to improve microbial functionality and plant growth. A brownish colored agricultural lime was found to contain up to 180 mg kg ―1 Cu, an amount well above any fertilizing materials code threshold. The dark color of the milled material was due to ample black and brown dendrites consisting of the tectomanganate mineral romanechite (ideally (Ba,H 2 O) 2 (Mn 4+ ,Mn 3+ ) 5 O 10 ) and a mixture of the two nanocrystalline Fe oxides ferrihydrite and goethite. A four-step sequential extraction analysis of the lime powder was not sufficient to argue whether the Cu load was contained in the carbonate matrix or in the oxide dendrites, or,…
Application of graphene quantum dots in heavy metals and pesticides detection
2020
Graphene Quantum Dots (GQDs) were produced using electrochemical oxidation of graphite rods. Obtained GQDs were gamma-irradiated in the presence of the N atoms source, ethylenediamine. Both structural and morphological changes were investigated using UV-Vis, X-ray photoelectron and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy as well as atomic force microscopy. The ability of both types of dots to change PL intensity in the presence of pesticides such as malathion and glyphosate, as well as copper (II) ions was detected. These preliminary results indicated a high potential of produced GQDs to be applied as non-enzymatic PL sensors for the detection of selected pesticides and metal ions. 26th Interna…
DEEP EUTECTIC SOLVENTS E LIQUIDI IONICI: SOLVENTI PER LO SVILUPPO DI PROCESSI ECO-COMPATIBILI
2020
L’obiettivo di questi tre anni di Dottorato è stato lo studio e l’utilizzo nuovi solventi di reazione in grado di sostituire i solventi organici classici. In particolare sono stati studiati i Deep Eutectic Solvent (DES) e le miscele di Liquidi Ionici (IL). I DES sono stati utilizzati come solventi per lo studio di reazioni organiche, usate per la formazione di nuovi legami C-C. Nello specifico sono state studiate la reazione di Diels-Alder, e diverse reazioni di coupling C-C catalizzate da Pd. In seguito, i DES sono stati utilizzati per la formazione di nuovi gel supramolecolari, chiamati eutectogel. Questi gel sono stati formati usando come gelator amminoacidi naturali, consentendo quindi …
Versatile Electrochemical C-H Amination via Zincke Intermediates.
2015
Simply by applying electricity, the amination reaction of a broad variety of arenes, heteroarenes, and benzylic substrates is achieved. Pyridine serves as the nitrogen source and the intermediate cationic species are well-protected from over-oxidation.
Electronic characterisation of the oxidized state of the blue copper protein Rusticyanin by 1 H NMR: Is the axial methionine the dominant influence f…
2001
The oxidized state of rusticyanin, the blue copper protein with the highest redox potential in its class, has been investigated through (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance applied to its cobalt(II) derivative. The assignment of the protons belonging to the coordinated residues has been performed. Many other amino acids situated in the vicinity of the metal ion, including six hydrophobic residues (isoleucine140 and five phenylalanines) have also been identified. The orientation of the main axes of the magnetic susceptibility tensor for the cobalt(II)-rusticyanin as well as its axial, Deltachi(ax), and rhombic, Deltachi(rh), magnetic susceptibility anisotropy components have been determined. A co…
