Paired genomic and proteomic analysis of Acinetobacter towneri from waste sludge reveals an extensive repertoire of enzymes for breakdown of hydrocarbons [PDF]
Microbiology SpectrumCrude oil, primarily consisting of alkanes, and plastic derivatives are integral to modern society, yet their widespread use has led to persistent pollution that devastates ecosystems worldwide. Enzymatic and microbial biodegradation are highly desirable

The numbers of chiral and achiral alkanes and monosubstituted alkanes [PDF]
Tetrahedron, 1976 Abstract Whereas the theory for the enumeration of the optical isomers of the lakyl radicals and the alkanes has long been understood, this is not the case for the corresponding archiral isomers. We present for the first time recurrence formulae for counting the number of archiral isomers of the alkyl radicals and the alkanes. For chiral and archiral

Hyper-Wiener index and Laplacian spectrum [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2003 The hyper-Wiener index WWW of a chemical tree T is defined as the sum of the product n1 n2 n3, over all pairs υ,ν of vertices of T, where n1 and n2 are the number of vertices of T, lying on the two sides of the path which connects υ and ν, and n3 is the ...

Syntrophic Hydrocarbon Degradation in a Decommissioned Off-Shore Subsea Oil Storage Structure
Microorganisms, 2021 Over the last decade, metagenomic studies have revealed the impact of oil production on the microbial ecology of petroleum reservoirs. However, despite their fundamental roles in bioremediation of hydrocarbons, biocorrosion, biofouling and hydrogen ...

Grass material as a modern process standard for 14C analysis of n-alkanes [PDF]
, 2016 One of the difficulties in reporting accurate radiocarbon results from compound-specific radiocarbon analysis (CSRA) is the lack of suitable process standard materials to correct for the amount and 14C content of carbon added during extensive sample ...
