Development and optimization of gas chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry based method for the sensitive determination of Dechl…
2017
An analytical method has been developed for the trace determination of 10 dechlorane-related compounds (DRCs) in food products by gas chromatography - high resolution mass spectrometry (GC-HRMS). The highest sensitivity of this instrumental analysis method was achieved by selection of the GC column type, optimization of the heated zones within the instrument, and adjusting the electron impact energy. The efficiency of solid phase extraction as clean-up procedure was also optimized. Two different types of cartridges - neutral silica gel and Florisil®, as well as seven organic solvents or their mixtures - n-hexane, cyclohexane, acetone, toluene, n-hexane/ethyl acetate, n-hexane/acetone, and n…
Polychlorinated organic compounds in the Arctic cod liver: trends and profiles
2000
Polychlorinated organic compounds (POCs) have been measured in Arctic cod liver from Vestertana Fjord for a period of 1987-1998. Significant decrease was observed for DDD (p = 0.043), alpha-HCH (p = 0.001), and gamma-HCH (lindane; p = 0.001). Contents of DDE, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzofuran, PCBs, chlordanes, chloronaphthalenes, hexachlorobenzene and polychlorodiphenyl ethers had no significant trend. Contents of three hexa- and two heptachlorodibenzofurans and octachlorodibenzofuran increased slightly from 1987 to 1994, but then at very high rate from 1994 to 1998. Trends of HCHs, profiles of PCBs and levels of chlordanes are in accordance with atmospheric long range transport. The hexa-, …
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of Aeromonas hydrophila serogroup O:19
2006
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been developed for the detection of Aeromonas hydrophila serogroup O:19 isolated from epizootics in eels. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay specificity was confirmed after testing A. hydrophila O:19 and non-O:19 strains from different origins, as well as other Aeromonas species and other fish pathogens such as Vibrio vulnificus biotype 2, V. furnisii, V. damsela, Yersinia ruckerii and Edwardsiella tarda. The detection limits for A. hydrophila O:19 cells were around 10(4)-10(5) cells/well. Artificially infected eels were analyzed and the immunodetection was confirmed by cultural methods. With this methodology A. hydrophila O:19 was successfully de…

Il sogno dell'ascesa al trono di Teodosio nell'Epitome de Caesaribus
2007
L’Epitome de Caesaribus fornisce una versione originale rispetto all’ascesa al trono di Teodosio, che sarebbe stata preannunciata da un sogno, attraverso cui è spiegato il nome del futuro imperatore in quanto a Deo natus. Nell’articolo è indagato il contesto in cui può essersi formata la versione di un imperatore voluto da Dio.
LA SFIDA DELL'EDUCATIVO NELLA SOCIETA' LIQUIDA
2014
Le società della tarda modernità sono segnate da un deficit di educazione. L'alternativa ad una società liquida non è tanto una società solida, ma una società autentica, segnata da una ricerca del senso originario dell'educare e che assume il tempo presente, anche le sue problematicità e le incertezze, come terreno propizio per una rinnovata esistenza morale.
Blood rheology at term in normal pregnancy and in patients with adverse outcome events.
2009
Plasma volume expansion of more than 1.5 1 and sustainable activation of the hemostatic system that results in a steady rise of the fibrinogen/fibrin turnover are contemporary physiological events during normal pregnancy. In contrast, adverse outcome of pregnancy i.e. pre-eclampsia commonly coincide with hemo concentration and over activation of blood coagulation both of which alter blood rheology. On the basis of 4,985 consecutively recorded singleton pregnancies values range of blood rheological parameters in women with normal and complicated outcome of pregnancy at the time of their delivery were compared. Plasma viscosity (pv) was determined using KSPV 1 Fresenius and RBC aggregation (s…
Phenoloxidase-dependent cytotoxic mechanism in ascidian (Styela plicata) hemocytes active against erythrocytes and K562 tumor cells.
1997
The cytotoxic activity against rabbit erythrocytes (RE) and human K562 tumor cells by Styela plicata hemocytes was significantly related to the phenoloxidase (PO) which converts phenols to quinone and initiates the melanogenic pathway. The effector hemocyte population, separated in a Percoll density gradient band, enriched in a granulocyte type named "morula cells", was examined with RE in a hemocyte cytotoxic assay and plaque forming cell assay. Inhibition experiments with the copper chelating agents 1-phenyl-2-thiourea and tropolone, the substrate analogue sodium benzoate and sodium ascorbate support the notion that hemocyte cytotoxic activity is a PO-dependent mechanism. Treatments of he…
