A method for determination of hydrogen sulfide in microsamples (200 μL) was developed by modifying the methylene blue method. Samples were collected using a micropipette and were combined with sulfide coloring reagent and 5 mL of 0.1 M HCl in test tubes. Absorbance of the solution was measured spectrophotometrically at 667 nm. This modified method did not require any special labware or technique, and can be used in a variety of research fields.

The wreck of the Punic ship exhibited at the Archaeological Park of Lilybaeum (Marsala, Italy) is a unique example in the world. In this paper, the investigation of some metal finds (30 nails and 3 fragments of sheathings) belonging to the wreck of the Punic ship is reported. Portable X-ray fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy allowed us to identify the elements and compounds constituting them and make some deductions about their composition.

During the 20th century, modern painters experimented with different mediums and painting techniques, one of them was Rafael Coronel in his mural painting, (). The painting was created with a peculiar pouring technique and an unknown binding medium; ageing produced fractures and severe conservation problems. Therefore, the characterization of the painting medium became an urgent matter in order to understand the current condition of the painting and to develop a proper treatment.

The cultural heritage community is increasingly exploring synchrotron radiation (SR) based techniques for the study of art and archaeological objects. When considering heterogeneous and complex micro-samples, such as those from paintings, the combination of different SR X-ray techniques is often exploited to overcome the intrinsic limitations and sensitivity of the single technique. Less frequently, SR X-ray analyses are combined with SR micro-photoluminescence or micro-Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, which provide complementary information on the molecular composition, offering a unique integrated analysis approach.

Article Synopsis
  • The degradation of cadmium sulfide (CdS)-based oil paints poses a significant threat to Edvard Munch's 1910 painting, with the transformation into cadmium sulfate and sulfites not being well understood.
  • Recent studies utilizing noninvasive spectroscopy and advanced x-ray microspectroscopy have uncovered that moisture and mobile chlorine compounds largely contribute to the oxidation of CdS, while light exposure is less impactful.
  • Additionally, under humid conditions, reactions within the paint can lead to the dissolution and migration of soluble paint phases, resulting in the formation of cadmium sulfates.
