Effects of Activated Carbon on PCB Bioaccumulation and Biological Responses of Chironomus riparius in Full Life Cycle Test

2016

The nonbiting midge Chironomus riparius was used to study the remediation potential and secondary effects of activated carbon (AC, ø 63-200 μm) in PCB contaminated sediments. AC amendments efficiently reduced PCB bioavailability determined by Chironomus riparius bioaccumulation tests and passive samplers. PCBs were shown to transfer from larvae to adults. Lower PCB concentrations were observed in adult midges emerging from AC amended compared to unamended sediments. Increased reproduction, survival, larval growth and gut wall microvilli length were observed with low AC dose (0.5% sediment dw) compared to unamended sediment, indicating an improved success of larvae in the sediment with low o…

Invenzione, composizione e tempo nell’architettura di Giuseppe Samonà; Invention, Composition and Time in the Architecture of Giuseppe Samonà

2016

Una riflessione su alcune costanti presenti nell’opera di Giuseppe Samonà deve anticipare un approfondimento dedicato esclusivamente alle centrali termiche realizzate in Sicilia dal 1955 al 1962. Si vogliono inquadrare le ragioni di alcune scelte senza per questo avere la pretesa di raggiungere un’esaustività critica rispetto alle molte questioni offerte dall’ampia produzione teorica e progettuale di Samonà. Se si osserva l’architettura di Samonà, in termini di invenzione e composizione ci si accorge come la cosiddetta “rivoluzione miracolosa”, non è una frattura ma una sorta di aggiornamento nel “già costruito” preso a riferimento. Il procedere di Samonà assoggettando frammenti e il rielab…

Il restauro del moderno: la centrale termoelettrica di Giuseppe Samonà, Augusta (SR)

2014

Negli anni Sessanta, l’industria elettrica era la forza motrice del processo di industrializzazione in Sicilia. La centrale termoelettrica di Augusta fu la prima grande opera a lanciare lo sviluppo dell’isola, partendo dalla costa sudorientale. Nel 1956, l’incarico della sua progettazione fu assegnato a Giuseppe Samonà, uno dei più importanti architetti italiani del XX secolo, a quell’epoca preside dello IUAV. La centrale, adesso dismessa, che può considerarsi come un pregevole esempio di architettura industriale, si trova all’interno del polo petrolchimico di Augusta, in connessione diretta con il porto e la città. Si tratta di un luogo storicamente estremamente stratificato, in cui la cit…

Development of a green fluorescent tagged strain of Aspergillus carbonarius to monitor fungal colonization in grapes.

2011

An enhanced green fluorescent protein has been used to tag an OTA-producing strain of Aspergillus carbonarius (W04-40) isolated from naturally infected grape berries. Transformation of the fungus was mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The most efficient transformation occurred when the co-cultivation was done with 104 conidia due to higher frequency of resistance colonies (894 per 104 conidia) and lower background obtained. To confirm the presence of the hph gene in hygromycin resistant colonies, 20 putative transformants were screened by PCR analysis. The hph gene was identified in all the transformants. Variation on the expression levels of the eGFP was detected among the transformant…

Climate change and cyclic predator-prey population dynamics in the high Arctic.

2009

The high Arctic has the world's simplest terrestrial vertebrate predator–prey community, with the collared lemming being the single main prey of four predators, the snowy owl, the Arctic fox, the long-tailed skua, and the stoat. Using a 20-year-long time series of population densities for the five species and a dynamic model that has been previously parameterized for northeast Greenland, we analyzed the population and community level consequences of the ongoing and predicted climate change. Species' responses to climate change are complex, because in addition to the direct effects of climate change, which vary depending on species' life histories, species are also affected indirectly due to…

On a matrix group constructed from an {R,s+1,k}-potent matrix

2014

Let R is an element of C-nxn be a {k}-involutory matrix (that is, R-k = I-n) for some integer k >= 2, and let s be a nonnegative integer. A matrix A is an element of C-nxn is called an {R,s + 1, k}-potent matrix if A satisfies RA = A(s+1)R. In this paper, a matrix group corresponding to a fixed {R,s + 1, k}-potent matrix is explicitly constructed, and properties of this group are derived and investigated. This group is then reconciled with the classical matrix group G(A) that is associated with a generalized group invertible matrix A.

Inverse eigenvalue problem for normal J-hamiltonian matrices

2015

[EN] A complex square matrix A is called J-hamiltonian if AT is hermitian where J is a normal real matrix such that J(2) = -I-n. In this paper we solve the problem of finding J-hamiltonian normal solutions for the inverse eigenvalue problem. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Il ruolo di Galeria Valeria nelle dinamiche della politica tetrarchica

2020

Il lavoro si incentra sulla figura di Galeria Valeria, figlia di Diocleziano e moglie di Galerio. Un’attenzione particolare è stata riservata a Galeria come moglie e madre: l’analisi si sofferma sulla notizia del retore Lattanzio inerente alla sterilità di Galeria Valeria e alla conseguente adozione di un figlio, Candidiano, che Galerio avrebbe avuto dall’unione con una concubina, aprendo un ampio excursus su problematiche di carattere giuridico quali l’adoptio/adrogatio, la legittimazione, il iustum matrimonium e il concubinato. Si cerca poi di affrontare la complessa questione riguardante l’adesione o meno da parte della donna al cristianesimo, anche mediante l’analisi comparativa del tes…

2014

Celem artykułu jest omówienie dziejów ludności żydowskiej na terenach należących do rodziny Zamoyskich w okresie od drugiej połowy XVI do drugiej połowy XVII wieku, w kresie rządów założyciela ordynacji Jana „Sariusza” Zamoyskiego (1542 – 1605), jego syna Tomasza Zamoyskiego (1594 – 1638) oraz wnuka Jana „Sobiepana” Zamoyskiego (1627 – 1665), ostatniego ordynata z tzw. linii starszej, zwanej też „kanclerską”. Zostały w nim omówione warunki polityczne, jakie towarzyszyły osiedlaniu się Żydów w latyfundium Zamoyskich (w szczególności w większych ośrodkach miejskich: Zamościu, Szczebrzeszynie, Tomaszowie, Kraśniku oraz Tarnogrodzie) oraz aspekty społeczne, kulturowe i gospodarcze ich funkcjono…
