Ciamician” of the University of Bologna. 1980–1996: Several study periods for a total of about two years at the Research Laboratory for Inorganic Chemistry of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in Budapest (Hungary) and at the Department of Analytical Chemistry of the University of Chemical Engineering of Veszprem (Hungary). In these centers, both theoretical and application lines of research have been consolidated for some time, aimed at the possibility of carrying out voltammetric multicomponent analysis of metals, also and above all, in the presence of strong interference from the voltammetric signal. RESEARCH SUBJECTS—The research activity (author of more than 160 publications in peer-reviewed international journals, and more than 200 congress communications) is addressed to theoretical and applied problems. The main research lines are the following. – Study of adsorption processes of organic molecules and their determination at trace level. – Set up of voltammetric and spectroscopic analytical methods in the determination, at trace and ultra-trace concentration levels, of heavy metals in real complex organic and inorganic matrices, especially of environmental, food, industrial, cosmetic, and forensic types. – Theoretical survey addressing the optimization of the analytical parameters such as sensitivity, selectivity, accuracy, precision, and limits of detection in metal determination by voltammetric and spectroscopic techniques. TEACHING ACTIVITY—The teaching activity (1980 to date) has always been focused on courses related to the scientific disciplinary sector Analytical Chemistry (Analytical Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry Laboratory, Instrumental Analytical Chemistry, Environmental Analytical Chemistry). From the Academic Year 1995/96, until the end of its activation, he was teacher at the School of Specialization in “Chemical Control and Analysis Methodologies” in the course Analytical Methodologies I. Academic Years 1996/97–2001/02: Professor of “Inorganic Chemical Analysis Methods” in the Specialization Course in “Marine Pollution Control” at the Faculty of Mathematical, Physical, and Natural Sciences of the University of Bologna throughout its activation period. Marcello Locatelli earned his degree in Chemistry at the University of Bologna, Department of Chemistry “G. Ciamician” with his thesis “Development of an Analytical Methodology for the Analysis and Identification of Protein Adducts by Mass Spectrometry”. He earned his PhD from the University of Bologna, Department of Chemistry “G. Ciamician” with his thesis “Combined Analytical Methods of Mass Spectrometry for the Study of Impurities in Drugs and Metabolites of Biomolecules”. He is currently Associate Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the University “G. d’Annunzio” of Chieti-Pescara, Department of Pharmacy. His research activity is devoted to the development and validation of chromatographic methods for the qualitative and quantitative determination of biologically active molecules in complex matrices from human and animal (whole blood, serum, plasma, bile, tissues, feces, and urine), cosmetics, foods, and the environment. This applies to the study of all processes related to preanalytical stages such as sampling, extraction vii and purification, separation, enrichment, and even the application of conventional and combined analytical methods for the accurate, sensitive, and selective determination of biologically active molecules.

  • Microbial Degradation of Rubber: Actinobacteria
    polymers Review Microbial Degradation of Rubber: Actinobacteria Ann Anni Basik 1,2, Jean-Jacques Sanglier 2, Chia Tiong Yeo 2 and Kumar Sudesh 1,* 1 Ecobiomaterial Research Laboratory, School of Biological Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Gelugor 11800, Penang, Malaysia; [email protected] 2 Sarawak Biodiversity Centre, Km. 20 Jalan Borneo Heights, Semengoh, Kuching 93250, Sarawak, Malaysia; [email protected] (J.-J.S.); [email protected] (C.T.Y.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +60-4-6534367; Fax: +60-4-6565125 Abstract: Rubber is an essential part of our daily lives with thousands of rubber-based products being made and used. Natural rubber undergoes chemical processes and structural modifications, while synthetic rubber, mainly synthetized from petroleum by-products are difficult to degrade safely and sustainably. The most prominent group of biological rubber degraders are Actinobacteria. Rubber degrading Actinobacteria contain rubber degrading genes or rubber oxygenase known as latex clearing protein (lcp). Rubber is a polymer consisting of isoprene, each containing one double bond. The degradation of rubber first takes place when lcp enzyme cleaves the isoprene double bond, breaking them down into the sole carbon and energy source to be utilized by the bacteria. Actinobacteria grow in diverse environments, and lcp gene containing strains have been detected from various sources including soil, water, human, animal, and plant samples. This review entails the occurrence, physiology, biochemistry, and molecular characteristics of Actinobacteria with respect to its rubber degrading ability, and discusses possible technological applications based on the activity of Actinobacteria for treating rubber waste in a more environmentally responsible manner.

A large amount of waste is 24mpa and 28mpa to examine the concrete properties. In this produced by such quarries only small quantity is used and rest is dumped . This can be used as replacement of fine aggregate. study 600 µ to 1 mm size of rubber particle was used. 27 control specimen were prepared, the result indicated that the Crumb rubber is recycled rubber produced from automotive rubber filled RC column gives slightly lower compressive and truck scrap tires.
