Also, we illustrate our results on the concrete examples of non-unital Banach quasi *-algebras, such as the standard Hilbert module over a commutative C*-algebra, Schatten p-ideals and noncommutative $L^2$-spaces induced by a semifinite, nonfinite trace. As a consequence of our results, we obtain a representation of all bounded positive linear C*-valued maps on non-unital C*-algebras. We also deduce some norm inequalities for these maps. Finally, we consider a noncommutative $L^2$-space equipped with the topology generated by a positive sesquilinear form and we construct a topologically transitive operator on this space.
