The ethnobotany, phytochemistry, and biological properties of Nigella damascena – A review
2022
This review is a systematic scientific work on medicinal and traditional use, on the chemical composition of specialized metabolites, volatile and non-volatile, on aspects related to toxicology and phytotherapy of Nigella damascena L. The genus Nigella (Ranunculaceae) is distributed throughout the Mediterranean basin, extending to northern India, and has been divided into three sections. Nigella damanscena L. is traditionally used as an ingredient in food, for example, as flavouring agents in bread and cheese, but is also known in folk medicine, used to regulate menstruation; for catarrhal affections and amenorrhea; as a diuretic and sternutatory; as an analgesic, anti-oedematous, and antip…
Rediscovery of the allegedly “destroyed” holotype of Weltrichia fabrei Saporta, 1891 from the Rhaetian?/Hettangian of Lozère (Southern France)
2018
7 pages; International audience; A sandstone slab bearing plant macro-remains was rediscovered during recent investigations led in the buildings of the old Musée Ignon-Fabre (Mende) which were closed in 1995 and emptied in 2003. The study of the slab clearly allows it to be identified as the holotype of Weltrichia fabrei Saporta, 1891 which has been considered destroyed since the end of the 20th Century. Gaston de Saporta described this Bennettitalean fructification based on a cast and considered the type locality as Rhaetian in age. In the present paper, based on the holotype, W. fabrei was revised in order to describe and illustrate the specimen in detail. It consists of a cup with one wh…

Agarose and PVA Fricke gel dosimeters exposed to clinical photons beams: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Relaxometry and Imaging
2015
Fricke Xylenol Gel (FXG) dosimetric system is based on the radiation induced oxidation of ferrous (Fe2+) to ferric (Fe3+) ions. The application of Fricke gels for ionizing radiation dosimetry is continuously increasing worldwide due to their many favorable properties. However, one of their shortcomings is that ferrous and ferric ions diffuse in the gel matrix. To maintain the spatial integrity of the dose distribution, Fricke gels must be undergoing measurement within a few hours of their irradiation, so that ferric ions remain close to their point of production. Thus, the spatial integrity of the dose distribution in the Fricke gel is maintained. The gel matrix also contributes to the oxid…
Inhibition of adult hippocampal neurogenesis disrupts contextual learning but spares spatial working memory, long-term conditional rule retention and…
2009
Neurogenesis in the adult dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus has been implicated in neural plasticity and cognition but the specific functions contributed by adult-born neurons remain controversial. Here, we have explored the relationship between adult hippocampal neurogenesis and memory function using tasks which specifically require the participation of the DG. In two separate experiments several groups of rats were exposed to fractionated ionizing radiation (two sessions of 7 Gy each on consecutive days) applied either to the whole brain or focally, aiming at a region overlying the hippocampus. The immunocytochemical assays showed that the radiation significantly reduced the expressio…
Drawing between history and digital innovation
2015
Le tecniche di rappresentazione ed i metodi hanno avuto un percorso di trasformazione nei secoli che ha sempre sottolineato il rapporto tra pensiero e disegno. Un rapporto biunivoco, in cui l'assunto teorico influenza la codifica dei metodi e, contestualmente, l'introduzione di tecniche e strumenti innovativi influenza la strutturazione del pensiero. Tale processo è riscontrabile dalla forme del disegno della Roma Imperiale ai giorni nostri, sia quando la rappresentazione è eseguita con tecniche manuali, sia quando è eseguita con tecniche digitali. The issue study the relationships between architectural thought and tecniques of drawing in history, from the first Century AC to the contempora…
Some morphological, anatomical, physiological responses of different olive cultivars to high temperatures and drought stress
2004
The aim of this work is to find relationships between morphology and physiology in three different olive cultivars: Biancolilla, Cerasuola and Nocellara del Belice, when plants were subjected to high temperature and drought. These cultivars are estensively used in Sicily for productive purposes. The results about ultrastructural and physiological studies on shoot growth, leaf anatomy, chloroplast ultrastructure and oxygen production, indicate that Biancolilla is the cultivar in which the studied traits showed fewer changes and can be considered to have the best tolerance to both high temperatures and water deficit. In the other hand, the morphological and physiological characteristics studi…
TABLE 3. QUESTIONS DE DURABILITÉ CULTURELLE ET ENVIRONNEMENTALE
2016
Il contributo gli esiti di un forum dei soggetti territoriali, sottolineando come il tema della partecipazione sia un prerequisito per la sostenibilità delle scelte progettuali. L'article porte sur les résultats d'un forum régional du sujet et met l'accent sur la participation comme une exigence pour la durabilité des choix de conception. Le Forum, organisé dans le cadre du programme DO.RE.MI.HE., a représenté l’une des rares occasions de voir plusieurs organismes territoriaux et associations, qui travaillent à divers niveaux sur le territoire, réunis autour d’une même table en vue d’imaginer un futur pour la ville et le territoire au départ du site UNESCO.
Le varietà di grano duro per le semine 2021. Sicilia
2021
Anche nel 2020-21, pur nelle difficili circostanze determinate per il secondo anno consecutivo dalla pandemia da Covid-19, sono state condotte in Sicilia le prove della Rete nazionale di confronto varietale di frumento duro. I campi sperimentali sono stati allestiti in 5 ambienti siciliani. La sperimentazione ha riguardato 30 varieta’, di cui ben 9 al primo anno di valutazione. I risultati produttivi riscontrati nelle diverse localita’ appaiono molto differenti e fortemente influenzati dall’andamento meteorologico verificatosi nelle diverse zone dell’Isola. At 2020-21, despite the difficult circumstances determined for the second consecutive year by the Covid-19 pandemic, the tests of the n…
