Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Comparative study of genome-wide plant biomass-degrading CAZymes in white rot, brown rot and soft rot fungi

Mycology, 2017
We have conducted a genome-level comparative study of basidiomycetes wood-rotting fungi (white, brown and soft rot) to understand the total plant biomass (lignin, cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin) -degrading abilities.
