Notes on the karyology, genetics and ecology of Genista sect. Voglera in Sicily
2012
To investigate the biosystematic and genetic relationships among Sicilian species of Genista sect. Voglera, four populations of three species, Genista aristata C. Presl, Genista cupanii Guss., and Genista madoniensis Raimondo, have been studied. Genista madoniensis is tetraploid, with a chromosome number of 2n = 48, as are the other two species. An isozyme study showed that G. madoniensis is taxonomically closer to G. aristata than to G. cupanii, the latter possessing four unique alleles. The results are discussed in the context of the ecological characteristics of each species.
Biopartitioning micellar chromatography to pedict mutagenicity of aromatic amines
2007
[EN] Mutagenicity is a toxicity endpoint associated with the chronic exposure to chemicals. Aromatic amines have considerable industrial and environmental importance due to their widespread use in industry and their mutagenic capacity. Biopartitioning micellar chromatography (BMC), a mode of micellar liquid chromatography that uses micellar mobile phases of Brij35 in adequate experimental conditions, has demonstrated to be useful in mimicking the drug partitioning process into biological systems. In this paper, the usefulness of BMC for predicting mutagenicity of aromatic amines is demonstrated. A multiple linear regression (MLR) model based on BMC retention data is proposed and compared wi…
Science and gender: researchers in training at the end of Francoism
2017
espanolDurante el siglo XX, al compas del incremento en el acceso a los estudios superiores, las mujeres comenzaron a romper barreras en el campo de la investigacion. El objetivo principal de este estudio es comprobar la forma en que incidio sobre el acceso de la mujer a la ciencia la primera convocatoria del Plan de Formacion de Personal Investigador (1968), inscrito dentro del II Plan de Desarrollo Economico y Social (1968/71), y las sucesivas convocatorias de becas pre y post doctorales, con destino a Espana y al extranjero, que se resolvieron hasta 1975. Mediante un analisis cuantitativo de los datos, en perspectiva de genero, trataremos de determinar las diferentes vias a traves de las…
Le relazioni familiari nel cinema degli anni cinquanta verso una nuova genitorialità
2017
In questo articolo viene proposta una ricostruzione storica delle relazioni educative familiari dell’Italia degli anni Cinquanta. Dallo studio dei diversi generi cinematografici diffusisi in quegli anni (neorealismo, melò e commedia) emerge l’immagine di una famiglia in transizione, divisa tra il vecchio e il nuovo. Il cinema neorealista descriveva la crisi del modello educativo autoritario, il melò rappresentava i difficili rapporti tra uomo e donna, la commedia si faceva interprete delle nuove conflittualità relazionali vissute all’interno della famiglia nucleare, sia tra padre e madre sia tra genitori e figli. Il cinema si faceva pertanto interprete dei conflitti dell’epoca, mettendo in …
Structure‐Activity Relationships of Benzamides and Isoindolines Designed as SARS‐CoV Protease Inhibitors Effective against SARS‐CoV‐2
2020
Abstract Inhibition of coronavirus (CoV)‐encoded papain‐like cysteine proteases (PLpro) represents an attractive strategy to treat infections by these important human pathogens. Herein we report on structure‐activity relationships (SAR) of the noncovalent active‐site directed inhibitor (R)‐5‐amino‐2‐methyl‐N‐(1‐(naphthalen‐1‐yl)ethyl) benzamide (2 b), which is known to bind into the S3 and S4 pockets of the SARS‐CoV PLpro. Moreover, we report the discovery of isoindolines as a new class of potent PLpro inhibitors. The studies also provide a deeper understanding of the binding modes of this inhibitor class. Importantly, the inhibitors were also confirmed to inhibit SARS‐CoV‐2 replication in …
The Good Parent: Southern Italian Mothers’ Conceptualization of Good Parenting and Parent–Child Relationships
2019
Thirty mothers, ranging in age between 30 and 46 years, participated in seven focus groups aimed at analyzing perceptions and ideas of the characteristics of a good parent and parent–child relationship in southern Italy (Sicily). The discussions were transcribed and analyzed using the constant comparative analysis approach. Two major themes, discipline and affection, emerged from the discussions about the idea of a good parent, with seven further subthemes. In defining good parenting beliefs and practices, Sicilian mothers mostly believed that control, discipline, and demandingness were imperative and prioritized over warmth and responsiveness. Despite the importance given to demandingness…
Il conferimento (immobili, aziende e partecipazioni), profili civilistici
2022
Il presente contributo si propone di indagare i profili di rilevanza civilistica del conferimento in società di persone di partecipazioni societarie e di azienda nonché di immobili, oltreché i profili attinenti ai conferimenti in società in nome collettivo, in società in accomandita semplice e in società di capitali. This contribution aims to investigate the profiles of civil law relevance of the transfer of shareholdings in companies and companies as well as of real estate to partnerships, as well as the profiles relating to transfers to general partnerships, limited partnerships and joint-stock companies .
Les commissions de quartier à l’épreuve de l’intelligence du social
2016
The notion of intelligence of social relationships enables to explore the communicative approach of participatory democracy. Citizen life is no longer only restricted to putting a ballot into a ballot box but is getting towards true cooperation between the various actors of public communication.

This study investigated participants’ conceptions of the ideal mentor and mentee in the Finnish model of peer-group mentoring (PGM). Existing mentoring research emphasises dyadic practices, yet the...
Timing in methods for studying psychosocial factors at work
2014
In the present chapter we focus on time lags in panel studies investigating psychosocial factors and stressor-strain relationships. First, a framework of theoretical reasons for choosing specific time lags is provided, which is based on the work by Frese and Zapf (Methodological issues in the study of work stress: objective vs. subjective measurement of work stress and the question of longitudinal studies. In: Cooper CL, Payne R (eds) Causes, coping and consequences of stress at work. Wiley, Chichester, pp 375–411, 1988). Although this theoretical framework provides a clear rationale for time intervals, researchers are frequently mistaken using it to derive appropriate time lags. Second, an…
