Eulero, Mascheroni e Riemann costanti ed ipotesi
No full textIn questa tesi si descrivono la funzione zeta di Riemann, la costante di Eulero-Mascheroni e la funzione gamma di Eulero. Si riportano i legami tra questi e si illustra brevemente l'ipotesi di Riemann degli zeri non banali della funzione zeta, ovvero l'ipotesi della distribuzione dei numeri primi nella retta dei numeri reali
The role of protective caregiving in epigenetic regulation in human infants
No full textThe study of epigenetics’ mechanisms to human infants’ development has mainly focused on the effects of early adverse exposures, paying less attention to protective caregiving experiences. In the current chapter, we review recent findings on maternal caregiving as a potential epigenetic regulator of infants’ phenotype. The relevance of epigenetic regulation linked to variations in parental behavior is highlighted by examining variations in DNA methylation status of specific genes involved in neuroendocrinological and behavioral pathways. Open questions are discussed to guide future human developmental research in behavioral epigenetics

CARBOXYLATED-CELLULOSE NANOCRYSTALS PRODUCED FROM LIGNOCELLULOSIC SOURCES AND USED AS BARRIER COATING FOR PET FILMS
Full text linkThe obtainment of Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) from different cellulosic sources recently gained a great attention due to their physical and mechanical properties. CNC can be extracted from variety of bio-based and renewable sources, such as wood, cotton, bacterial cellulose, tunicate cellulose and softwood cellulose and used as reinforced nanocomposites, functional materials and oxygen-barrier layers. The most important factor affecting the nanocellulose production is the relative proportion of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin in the source material. The extraction of CNC from cellulosic materials started with a pre-treatment of biomass involving the complete or partial removal of hemicelluloses, lignin, etc. and isolation of cellulose component. After the separation of matrix materials, controlled hydrolysis of the cellulosic fibers is performed in order to produce colloidal suspensions of cellulose crystals. Using of ammonium persulfate (APS) has recently achieved the obtainment of CNC from different cellulose sources without any pre-treatment. APS, a strong oxidizing agent with high water solubility, is able to produce carboxylated CNC having high crystallinity and active carboxyl groups. The conversion of the carboxylic acid groups to the carboxylate form offers active sites for surface modification and templates for the synthesis of nanoparticles. Incorporation of carboxylated–CNC as a functional layer on different substrates have enhanced the barrier (oxygen permeability), mechanical, optical, and antifog properties of the nanocomposites. The aim of this work was to obtain the CNC from two lignocellulosic sources and to characterize them in terms of morphology, crystallinity, charge density and coating properties in order to use CNC as barrier coating for PET films

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
