Aquatic Effects of a Localized Oil Spill on Lake Conway, AR and Its Tributaries [PDF]
, 2015 Oil spills, no matter where they occur, elicit environmental concern and avoiding these disasters should be a priority. Old pipelines that are not regularly maintained and carry large amounts of crude oil long distances are of particular concern.

The Molecular Mechanism of Calcification in Aquatic Organisms [PDF]
Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2013 Biomineralization is a process of mineral deposition by organisms. Calcium salts are the major component of various biominerals, calcium carbonate being the predominant type in aquatic organisms. The mechanism of biomineralization has been conventionally analyzed by microscopic observation.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Multidrug‐resistant Vibrio infections are rising rapidly and threaten coastal populations worldwide. This study introduces D‐zp37, a chirality‐engineered antimicrobial peptide with exceptional potency against resistant Vibrio species. D‐zp37 kills planktonic cells, blocks mixed‐species biofilms, disrupts essential bacterial stress responses, and shows ...

Determination of Silver Binding to Natural Organic Matter Using Ion Selective Electrode [PDF]
, 2017 Natural organic matter (NOM) is considered an important factor in the protection of the aquatic environments; organic ligands can complex with metals, to decrease their toxicity and bioavailability. NOM is measured as dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in mg

Physiological Effects of Five Different Marine Natural Organic Matters (NOMs) and Three Different Metals (Cu, Pb, Zn) on Early Life Stages of the Blue Mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) [PDF]
, 2017 Metals are present in aquatic environments as a result of natural and anthropogenic inputs, and may induce toxicity to organisms. One of the main factors that influence this toxicity in fresh water is natural organic matter (NOM) but all NOMs are not the
