Giancarlo Ranalli, Alessia Andreotti, Maria Perla Colombini, Cristina Corti, more

Journal of Applied Microbiology > 133 > 3 > 1843 - 1856

This study is part of a comprehensive investigation that was performed in regard to a case of alterations on a carbographic ribbon used in a typewriter that was found and seized by inner security operations of the Arma dei Carabinieri, Italy. Thirty‐six coded scripts possessing potentially and criminally liable content were present on the tape; however, only the 6th and 7th scripts exhibited alterations...

Post-surgical pyoderma gangrenosum of the breast: needs for early diagnosis and right therapy

Giorgia Guaitoli, Federico Piacentini, Claudia Omarini, Alessia Andreotti, more

Breast Cancer > 2019 > 26 > 4 > 520-523

Post-surgical pyoderma gangrenosum (PSPG) of the breast is a rare dermatosis that worsens surgical manipulation, with a chronical relapsing course. Diagnosis is mostly clinical and made by exclusion after the failure of antibiotic therapies and surgical debridement, while the mainstay of therapy is corticosteroid-based. Here we report a case of PSPG of the breast in a young woman with breast cancer,...

Laura Rampazzi, Alessia Andreotti, Mario Bressan, Maria Perla Colombini, more

Applied Surface Science > 2018 > 458 > C > 529-539

An interdisciplinary analytical campaign was carried out on the exterior walls of the Santa Maria della Bruna and Sant’Eustachio Cathedral in Matera. Large areas of these walls have become darkened and the main objective was to evaluate the state of conservation of the stone material (a very porous, organogenic limestone called “Pietra di Matera”), and to suggest the best strategy for the current...

Magdalini Serefidou, Susanna Bracci, Deodato Tapete, Alessia Andreotti, more

Microchemical Journal > 2016 > 127 > C > 187-198

This paper explores the added value of micro-chemical and microscopic approaches to gather scientific evidence that can technically explain the pictorial quality of an egg-tempera painting, and underpin assessments that otherwise would be based on naked eye observations only. Demonstration is here provided via the interdisciplinary investigation of the original technique used by Giovanni del Biondo...

Diagnosis of materials and effectiveness of Er:YAG laser cleaning as complementary treatment in a panel painting attributed to Lluís Borrassà (fifteenth century)

Alessia Andreotti, William P. Brown, Mara Camaiti, Maria Perla Colombini, more

Applied Physics A > 2016 > 122 > 6 > 1-12

A fifteenth-century panel painting by Lluís Borrassà (1360–1425) was the object of a restoration at the North Carolina Museum of Art. A multi-analytical approach based on Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC/MS) also coupled with a pyrolyzer was used to investigate the origin of the darkened coating obscuring the...

Test measurements on a secco white-lead containing model samples to assess the effects of exposure to low-fluence UV laser radiation

Valentina Raimondi, Alessia Andreotti, Maria Perla Colombini, Costanza Cucci, more

Applied Surface Science > 2015 > 337 > C > 45-57

Laser-induced fluorescence technique is widely used for diagnostic purposes in several applications and its use could be of advantage for non-invasive on-site characterisation of pigments or other compounds in wall paintings. However, it is well known that long-time exposure to UV and VIS radiation can cause damage to wall paintings. Several studies have investigated the effects of lighting, e.g.,...

Journal of Cultural Heritage > 2014 > 15 > 3 > 300-307

The Saadian tombs from the era of sultan Ahmed al-Mansour (1574–1603) are beautifully decorated and have always been a major attraction for visitors to Marrakesh. The central mausoleum, named the Hall of Twelve Columns, encloses the tombs of Ahmed al-Mansour and his family. The hall has a huge vaulted ceiling, carved cedar doors, opening windows with wooden marquetry screen (Mashrabiya), and grey...

Micro‐Raman and GC/MS analysis to characterize the wall painting technique of Dicho Zograph in churches from Republic of Macedonia

Lidija Robeva Čukovska, Biljana Minčeva – Šukarova, Anna Lluveras‐Tenorio, Alessia Andreotti, more

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy > 43 > 11 > 1685 - 1693

Micro‐Raman spectroscopy, pyrolysis/gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (Py/GC/MS) and gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (CG/MS) were applied for the characterization of pigments and binders used in the wall paintings ascribed to the works of the prominent 19^th century Macedonian iconographer, Dicho Zograph. Among numerous works attributed to him, wall paintings from three churches in the Western...

Prognosis and treatment of micrometastatic breast cancer sentinel lymph node: A population‐based study

Laura Cortesi, Manuela Proietto, Claudia Cirilli, Giovanni Tazzioli, more

Journal of Surgical Oncology > 106 > 4 > 399 - 405

Background and ObjectivesMajor concern of sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy (SLNB) regards the prognosis of micrometastasis (Nmic) in SLN. The purpose of this study is to determine the adequate surgical treatment and prognosis of Nmic in a population‐based series of breast cancer patients. MethodsAll non‐metastatic breast cancer patients registered by the Modena Cancer Registry (MCR), from January...

Fast biocleaning of mediaeval frescoes using viable bacterial cells

Giuseppe Lustrato, Gabriele Alfano, Alessia Andreotti, Maria Perla Colombini, more

International Biodeterioration & Biodegradation > 2012 > 69 > Complete > 51-61

The 14th-century fresco Stories of the Holy Fathers (size 6.10 × 15.65 m), at Camposanto Monumentale in Pisa, Italy, was painted by Buonamico Buffalmacco. The building housing it was damaged by a bomb during World War II and the fresco was quickly removed from the original walls under extremely dangerous conditions. It was detached using the “tear-off” technique with gauze and a layer of warm animal...

Mass Spectrometric and Synchrotron Radiation based techniques for the identification and distribution of painting materials in samples from paints of Josep Maria Sert

Anna Lluveras-Tenorio, Alessia Andreotti, Ilaria Bonaduce, Sarah Boularand, more

Chemistry Central Journal > 2012 > 6 > 1 > 1-18

Background Establishing the distribution of materials in paintings and that of their degradation products by imaging techniques is fundamental to understand the painting technique and can improve our knowledge on the conservation status of the painting. The combined use of chromatographic-mass spectrometric techniques, such as GC/MS or Py/GC/MS, and the chemical mapping of functional groups by imaging...

Journal of Cultural Heritage > 2007 > 8 > 3 > 323-327

In the medieval tower of Spilamberto, near Modena (Italy), during the restoration works of 1946, a small cell was found. The four walls of the cell were entirely covered by monochrome reddish paintings and inscriptions, a sort of diary, work of a man imprisoned there in the first half of XVI century who wanted to leave a memory of the tragic history he lived as actor or witness.In the last sixty years...

Colour fading in textiles: A model study on the decomposition of natural dyes

Maria Perla Colombini, Alessia Andreotti, Cecilia Baraldi, Ilaria Degano, more

Microchemical Journal > 2007 > 85 > 1 > 174-182

This paper describes an analytical procedure based on GC-MS to identify in textiles the most common flavonoid yellow dyes used in Europe since ancient times, extracted from weld, young fustic, dyer's broom, sawwort and the berries of some species of Rhamnus. Later on, old fustic and quercitron bark were introduced as sources of yellow colours.The method is based on the solvent extraction of flavonoids...
