MODELLISTICA MATEMATICA E PIATTAFORME INFORMATICHE A SUPPORTO DELLA RICERCA AMBIENTALE
2021
La modellizzazione matematica è diventata ormai uno strumento essenziale nell’avanzamento delle conoscenze in qualsiasi campo della scienza, dall’econometria alla psicologia, dalla chimica all’epidemiologia, come vissuto di recente nella pandemia da SARS-coV-2. Anche quelle che erano una volta discipline “soft” come la biomedicina o l’ecologia possono ora usufruire di tecniche di rappresentazione ed esplicazione dei processi estremamente utili alla comprensione delle dinamiche in gioco. Questa evoluzione, dovuta in non piccola parte all’attuale disponibilità di abbondante potenza di calcolo elettronico a costi ridotti, non è però opera ed appannaggio soltanto della nostra generazione. Lo st…
Amino-phosphanes in RhI-Catalyzed Hydroformylation: Hemilabile Behavior of P,N Ligands under High CO Pressure and Catalytic Properties
2005
International audience; The catalytic properties of rhodium complexes containing the α-, β-, or γ-amino-phosphane ligands Ph2PCH2NEt2 (α-P,N-1), Ph2PCH(Ar)NHPh [α-P,N-2; Ar = η6(o-C6H4Cl)Cr(CO)3], Ph2PCH2NPh2 (α-P,N-3), Ph2PCH2CH(Ph)NHPh (β-P,N), Ph2PCH2(o-C6H4–NMe2) (γ-P,N-1), Ph2PCH(o-C6H4–CH2NHPh) (γ-P,N-2), and the α,β-diamino-phosphane ligand Et2NCH2P(Ph)CH2CH(Ph)NHPh (α,β-N,P,N), in styrene hydroformylation have been examined. The results show that the activity increases when the number of backbone carbon atoms linking P and N decreases from 3 to 1. IR and 31P HPNMR studies in solution show that all P,N ligands adopt exclusively a κ1-P coordination mode in rhodium chloride carbonyl co…
Considerare i cittadini i primi alleati
2016
L’approvazione in molti Comuni italiani di «Regolamenti per l’amministrazione condivisa» sta dando luogo a molteplici «Patti» di collaborazione rispetto alla cura e rigenerazione dei beni comuni urbani. Si tratta di sperimentazioni in cui i diversi attori in gioco – Enti locali, abitanti, gruppi informali, soggetti privati e del privato sociale – provano a uscire da sterili polarizzazioni e a valorizzare le energie costruttive di tutti nel perseguire dei beni effettivamente comuni. Se è presto per fare il punto su processi ancora «giovani» (il primo Regolamento è del 2014), è tuttavia importante riflettere su come si stanno evolvendo le «regole del gioco» tra cittadini e amministrazioni loc…
Sensitivity and Specificity of Reiter Protein Complement-Fixation (RPCF) Test for Syphilis1
1957
D'Alessandro and his co-workers reported on the separation of four different fractions from the Reiter strain of Treponema pallidum (1, 2, 3). This report deals with the thermolabile soluble protein extract of the Reiter treponeme. The antigen employed in this study was prepared by de Bruijn (4) using the technic described by D'Alessandro. The antigen is prepared briefly as follows: The Reiter treponemes are grown in a Brewer thioglycollate medium. After harvesting the washing, the treponemes are subjected to cryolysis. The lysate is dialyzed against increasing concentrations of ammonium sulfate. The precipitate thus obtained is dissolved in a veronal-buffered saline. This solution is dialy…
Polymorphism of amyloid-beta fibrils and its effects on human erythrocyte catalase binding.
2009
The Alzheimer's amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptide exists as a number of naturally occurring forms due to differential proteolytic processing of its precursor molecule. Many of the Abeta peptides of different lengths form fibrils in vitro, which often show polymorphisms in the fibril structure. This study presents a TEM based analysis of fibril formation by eighteen different Abeta peptides ranging in length from 5 to 43 amino acids. Spectrophotometric analysis of Congo red binding to the fibrillar material has been assessed and the binding of human erythrocyte catalase (HEC) to Abeta fibrils has also been investigated by TEM. The results show that a diverse range of Abeta peptides form fibrils a…

Multiplexed plasmon sensor for rapid label-free analyte detection.
2013
Efficient and cost-effective multiplexed detection schemes for proteins in small liquid samples would bring drastic advances to fields like disease detection or water quality monitoring. We present a novel multiplexed sensor with randomly deposited aptamer functionalized gold nanorods. The spectral position of plasmon resonances of individual nanorods, monitored by dark-field spectroscopy, respond specifically to different proteins. We demonstrate nanomolar sensitivity, sensor recycling, and the potential to upscale to hundreds or thousands of targets.
Strategies for the enantiomeric determination of amphetamine and related compounds by liquid chromatography.
2002
This paper summarizes recent research on the stereospecific analysis of amphetamine, its analogs and metabolites, by liquid chromatography. The different methods proposed have been evaluated and compared in terms of resolution power, time of analysis, sensitivity, or potential for automation. Chiral derivatization, followed by separation of the diastereomers formed in achiral chromatographic systems, is still the method preferred for the analysis of amphetamines at trace levels, as derivatization also improves analyte detectability. This is the method of choice for the enantiomeric analysis of amphetamines at the low concentrations typically encountered in biological samples. In recent year…
Assessment of oxidative damage to proteins and DNA in urine of newborn infants by a validated UPLC-MS/MS approach
2014
The assessment of oxidative stress is highly relevant in clinical Perinatology as it is associated to adverse outcomes in newborn infants. This study summarizes results from the validation of an Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous quantification of the urinary concentrations of a set of endogenous biomarkers, capable to provide a valid snapshot of the oxidative stress status applicable in human clinical trials, especially in the field of Perinatology. The set of analytes included are phenylalanine (Phe), para-tyrosine (p-Tyr), ortho-tyrosine (o-Tyr), meta-tyrosine (m-Tyr), 3-NO2-tyrosine (3NO(2)-Tyr), 3-Cl-tyrosine (3Cl-T…
Symmetry and models of single-walled TiO2 nanotubes with rectangular morphology
2011
Abstract The formalism of line symmetry groups for one-periodic (1D) nanostructures with rotohelical symmetry has been applied for symmetry analysis of single-walled titania nanotubes (SW TiO2 NTs) formed by rolling up the stoichiometric two-periodic (2D) slabs of anatase structure. Either six- or twelve-layer (101) slabs have been cut from TiO2 crystal in a stable anatase phase. After structural optimization, the latter keeps the centered rectangular symmetry of initial slab slightly compressed along a direction coincided with large sides of elemental rectangles. We have considered two sets of SW TiO2 NTs with optimized six- and twelve-layer structures, which possess chiralities (−n, n) an…
