In 1737 he was the first to give courses in chemistry at an Italian university. He carried out important research on the phosphorescence of bodies, and studied the measurement of the intensity of the light emitted (''De rebus aliisque adamant in phosphorum numerum referendis'', 1745). He also studied the action of light on silver salts (''De vi, quam ipsa per se lux habet, non colores modo, sed etiam texturam rerum, salvis interdum coloribus, immutandi'', 1757). From his comments on foraminifera he is considered as one of the pioneers of microbiology.
