The Landslide of Agrigento Hill (Sicily, Italy)
2018
This paper illustrated the geological, morphological and hydrogeological studies performed for the analysis and monitoring of the landslide involving the northern side of the hill of Agrigento (335 m a.s.l.) on which the ancient Cathedral was built during the 11th Century. The hill is made of a typical Plio-Pleistocene transgressive succession made of clays (M. Narbone formation), calcarenites, sands and clayey soils (Agrigento formation). The area has been unstable since 1315, involving both the little-welded, very porous and fractured calcarenitic sections (E-W) from Pleistocene and the clay layers interstratified within these sections. Since 1924, from time to time, various typologies of…
Root resorption and orthodontic treatment. Review of the literature.
2007
The aim of this paper was to provide a systematic review of the literature on the root resorption caused by orthodontic treatment. Original papers on this subject, published in English from January 2000 until December 2005, were located in the MEDLINE/PubMed database. Other sources were taken from the references of the selected papers. Root resorption is the most common sequela of the orthodontic treatment. It is an inflammatory process that leads to an ischemic necrosis localized in the periodontal ligament when the orthodontic force is applied. The onset and progression of root resorption are associated with risk factors related to the orthodontic treatment such as the duration of treatme…
Magneto-structural studies on heterobimetallic malonate-bridged M(II)Re(IV) complexes (M = Mn, Co, Ni and Cu).
2010
The mononuclear Re(IV) compound of formula (PPh(4))(2)[ReBr(4)(mal)] (1) was used as a ligand to obtain the heterobimetallic species [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Co(dmphen)(2)]· MeCN (2), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Ni(dmphen)(2)] (3), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Mn(dmphen)(2)] (4a), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Mn(dmphen)(H(2)O)(2)]·dmphen·MeCN·H(2)O (4b), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Cu(phen)(2)]·1/4H(2)O (5) and [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Cu(bipy)(2)] (6) (mal = malonate dianion, dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine). The structures of 2 and 5 (single-crystal X-ray diffraction) are made up of neutral [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)M(AA)] dinuclear units [AA = dmphen with M = Co (2) and AA = phen with M = Cu (5)] where the …
On the electronic coupling of the C=O stretching vibrations in Cl(2)Pt(malonate)(-).
2001
Ab initio calculations on the complex Cl(2)Pt(malonate)(-) have been performed to estimate the magnitude and the source of the splitting between the symmetric and antisymmetric C=O stretches. It is shown that a large part of the splitting can result from pure electronic coupling mediated via the pi-structure of the ligand. Calculations have also been performed on the free ligand malonate(-) and the neutral malonaldehyde that show decreasing electronic coupling, which is consistent with the decreasing resonance stabilization. A simple effective C=O interaction potential has been produced for Cl(2)Pt(malonate)(-) that is used to estimate the electronic splitting of the 1600 cm(-1) IR band to …
Versatile supramolecular self-assembly. Part I. Network formation and magnetic behaviour of the alkaline salts of the bis(malonate)cuprate(ii) anion
2006
Five malonate-containing copper(II) compounds of formula {[A(H2O)n]2 [Cu(mal)2(H2O)m]} [A = Li (1), Na (2), K (3), Rb (4) and Cs (5); H2mal = malonic acid] have been synthetized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. The structure of these compounds consists of bis(malonate)cuprate(II) anions and alkaline cations that are held together by means of carboxylate bridges and water molecules leading to 3D networks. A study of the self-assembling of the bis(malonate)cuprate(II) and the alkaline cations is carried out, the size of the alkaline metal ion playing an important role in the control of the resulting malonate-bridged copper(II) structure. A regular alternation of layers of anionic malon…
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of two-dimensional malonato-bridged cobalt(ii) and nickel(ii) compounds
2004
Two isostructural malonato-bridged complexes of formula {[M(H2O)2][M(mal)2(H2O)2]}n [M = Co(II) (1), Ni(II) (2); H2mal = malonic acid] have been synthesised and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Their structure consists of corrugated layers of trans-diaquabismalonatemetalate(II) and trans-diaquametal(II) units bridged by carboxylate–malonate groups in the anti–syn conformation. Two crystallographycally independent metal atoms occur in 1 and 2. The malonate anion acts simultaneously as a bidentate and bis-monodentate ligand. Variable-temperature (1.9–295 K) magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate the occurrence of weak antiferro- (1) and ferromagnetic (2) interactions between the cob…
Effects of aldicarb and propoxur on cytotoxicity and lipid peroxidation in CHO-K1 cells
2010
Abstract Cytotoxic effects of aldicarb, its sulfone and sulfoxide, and propoxur, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant parameters in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO-K1) cells were determined. d , l -buthionine-( S , R )-sulfoximine (BSO) was assayed to determine the role of GSH in the protection against carbamate cytotoxicity. Pre-treatment with 60 μM BSO, induced a significant decrease in the glutathione reductase (GR; 64–141%), the glutathione peroxidase (GPx; 10–30%) and the glutathione S-transferase (GST; 59–93%) activities, and its GSH levels (79–85%), while the oxidized glutathione (GSSG) levels significantly increased (64–78%) respect to experiment non-BSO-pretreated. Carbamates BSO pre-trea…
Biomarkers of lipid peroxidation in the aqueous humor of primary open-angle glaucoma patients
2016
Objective To investigate the lipid peroxidation (PEROX) processes in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients, and whether this mechanism may be related to disease progression. Material and methods A prospective, observational, cross-sectional, non-experimental, and analytical study was conducted on a case and a comparison group, consisting of 175 surgical patients divided into: (1) POAG group (GG; n = 88) and (2) comparison group of patients with cataracts (CG; n = 87). Demographic data, patient characteristics, lifestyle data, as well as ophthalmological examination were registered in an Excel spreadsheet. Biochemical data were obtained by processing the aqueous humor collected at the …
