Mechanistic insights across curing regimes for enzymatic and biopolymer‐optimized reinforcement in rock masses

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study examines the effects of curing temperature on the mechanical behavior of underground rock masses treated with enzyme‐induced calcite precipitation (EICP) and an innovative biopolymer‐modified EICP (BP‐EICP). Abstract Biocementation is an innovative and sustainable technique for reinforcing weak and weathered rock masses in natural and ...

Using Element/Ca Response to Cleaning in Foraminifera From Endmember Depositional Environments to Infer Contaminants and Inform Pretreatment

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Past ocean conditions are often reconstructed using the elemental composition of foraminiferal calcite. However, foraminiferal remains are often impacted by post‐depositional contaminants; thus, they require cleaning prior to element/Ca (El/Ca) analysis.

Adsorptive Desulfurization of Iraqi Light Naphtha Using Calcite and Modified Calcite

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering
This study used the adsorption method to remove sulfur compounds from light naphtha fuel by using calcite and modified calcite as adsorbents. The calcite was prepared from chicken eggshells by heating and activation methods. It was modified by mixing it

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

Mineral Composition of Skeletal Elements in Dorid Nudibranchia Onchidoris muricata (Gastropoda, Mollusca)

open access: yesBiomimetics
Energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX), a standard technique in mineralogy and criminalistics, has not yet been fully incorporated into the study of various biomineral structures of invertebrates, despite the growing popularity of this topic in the ...

Analytical electron microscopy of biogenic and inorganic carbonates [PDF]

open access: yes
In the terrestrial sedimentary environment, the mineralogically predominant carbonates are calcite-type minerals (rhombohedral carbonates) and aragonite-type minerals (orthorhombic carbonates).

Possible role of microtubules in vesicular transport of matrix protein during sea urchin larval biomineralization

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Biomineralization is a vital biological process through which organisms produce mineralized structures such as shells, skeletons, and teeth. Microtubules are essential for biomineralization in various eukaryotic species; however, their specific roles in this process remain unclear.
