What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Organic chemistry
- Archaeology
- World War II
Her main research concerns Chromatography, Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, Gas chromatography, Mass spectrometry and Archaeology.
Her Chromatography study combines topics in areas such as Hydrolysis, Pyrolysis, Organic chemistry and Wax.
Her research in Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry intersects with topics in Uronic acid, Dicarboxylic acid, Analytical procedures, Chemometrics and Plant Gums.
Her Gas chromatography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sample preparation, Acid hydrolysis, Animal glue and Derivatization.
Her work on Mass spectrometric as part of general Mass spectrometry study is frequently linked to Pinaceae, bridging the gap between disciplines.
While the research belongs to areas of Archaeology, Maria Perla Colombini spends her time largely on the problem of Lignin, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Moiety, Primary alcohol and Free phenol.
Her most cited work include:
- A new Palaeolithic discovery: tar-hafted stone tools in a European Mid-Pleistocene bone-bearing bed (225 citations)
- Early evidence of San material culture represented by organic artifacts from Border Cave, South Africa (202 citations)
- Organic mass spectrometry in art and archaeology (161 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Chromatography, Archaeology, Mass spectrometry, Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and Gas chromatography are her primary areas of study.
Her study in Chromatography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Organic chemistry and Wax.
Maria Perla Colombini interconnects Painting, Mass spectrometric, Lignin, Ancient history and Mineralogy in the investigation of issues within Archaeology.
Her Lignin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Environmental chemistry, Cellulose, Alum and Degradation.
The various areas that Maria Perla Colombini examines in her Mass spectrometry study include Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Pyrolysis and Characterization.
Her work carried out in the field of Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry brings together such families of science as Derivatization and Silylation.
