Diffusione pollinica e caratteristiche immunologiche e broncoreattive di soggetti atopici in Pietra Ligure (Savona)

Abstract

SUMMARY. Airborne pollen grains in Pietra Ligure (Savona, Italy)

Incidence of sensitisation to the pollens of urticaceae (Parietaria), Poaceae and Oleaceae (Olea europea) and pollen rain in Liguria (Italy)

“…Though situated in the north of Italy, Liguria has aerobiological --and hence allergological --characteristics which more closely resemble those of the south (Arobba et al, 1981;Negrini et al, 1983Negrini et al, , 1988Ariano, 1984Ariano, , 1985Arobba et al, 1987Arobba et al, , 1988. This is confirmed by the high incidence of certain pollinosis in Liguria which are much more frequently encountered in the South of Italy rather than in the North (D'Amato and Melillo, 1983;Negrini and D'Amato, 1985).…”

The Palaeolithic sequence of the Arma dell’Aquila (Finale Ligure, Savona, North-western Italy)

“…Laviosa Zambotti 1943, p. 103;Bernabo Brea 1947, p. 62), and have never been given much relevance before the publication of the site's final report (Biagi, Starnini 2018). After many years of oblivion, the study of the archaeological finds from the site was resumed in the 1980s (Arobba et alii 1987). During the following years a systematic, interdisciplinary work encompassing analysis, revision, restoration, and documentation of the assemblages retrieved during the 1940s and previous excavations finally took place (Biagi, Starnini 2018).…”
