A radioisotopic tracer study of carbon formation in ethanol-air diffusion flames

open access: closedCombustion and Flame, 1970
Experimental results have been obtained which show that carbon formation in ethanol-air diffusion flames occurs preferentially from the nonhydroxylated carbon atom of the ethanol molecule. The ratio of the contribution to solid carbon of the nonhydroxylated carbon atom to that of the hydroxylated atom equals 2:1.

Radioisotopic tracing of carbon monoxide conversion by anaerobic thermophilic prokaryotes

open access: closedMicrobiology, 2007
The rate of CO conversion by a pure culture of a thermophilic CO-oxidizing, H2-producing bacterium Carboxydocella sp. strain 1503 was determined by the radioisotopic method. The overall daily uptake of 14CO by the bacterium was estimated at 38–56 μmol CO per 1 ml of the culture.

Radioisotope tracer studies of inorganic carbon and Ca in microbially derived CaCO3

open access: closedGeochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 1999
Abstract Microbial calcification significantly impacts the cycling and deposition of inorganic carbon. This research employs 45 Ca and 14 C techniques as radioisotopic tracers to examine the role of cellular cycling of Ca 2+ and inorganic carbon in CaCO 3 precipitation by the unicellular green alga Nannochloris atomus .

Radioisotope-Based Protocol for Determination of Central Carbon Metabolism in T Cells

open access: closed, 2020
T lymphocytes are the major components of the adaptive immune system. It's been known that T cells are able to engage a diverse range of metabolic programs to meet the metabolic demands during their life cycle from early development, activation to functional differentiation.

Investigations by the Aid of Radioisotope Methods on the Technology of the Production of Carbon and Silicon Carbide Materials

open access: closedIsotopenpraxis Isotopes in Environmental and Health Studies, 1983
Some examples of radioisotope application from the cooperation for many years between the VEB Elektrokohle Lichtenberg Berlin and the Academy of Sciences of the GDR are told, Radiotracer and autoradiographical methods have been very helpful for the distinction between several components of the carbon or silicon carbide materials in milling, mixing ...

RNA-Radioisotope Probing for Studying Carbon Metabolism in Soils

open access: closed, 2014
This chapter discusses RNA-radioisotope probing (RNA-RIP) for studying carbon metabolism in soils. Identifying the microorganisms driving bio-geochemical processes and how these are influenced by the physicochemical environment is the key to understand how microbial systems such as soils work.

Accumulation rates and sources of sediments and organic carbon on the Palos Verdes shelf based on radioisotopic tracers (137Cs, 239,240Pu, 210Pb, 234Th, 238U and 14C)

open access: closedMarine Chemistry, 2001
We report here bioturbation and sediment accumulation rates determined from replicate sediment cores at four different sampling sites on the Palos Verdes shelf, Southern California, using bomb fallout and natural radionuclides (137Cs, 239,240Pu, 210Pb, 234Th, and 14C), along with supporting measurements of organic carbon (OC), porosity and granulometry.

Single-walled carbon nanotube film-silicon heterojunction radioisotope betavoltaic microbatteries

open access: closedJournal of Micromechanics and Microengineering, 2014
Ever since the appearance of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies, they have been used in almost every type of microbattery except for nuclear ones. Here we present a radioisotope betavoltaic (BV) microbattery based on a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) film that acts as a carrier separator.

Measurement of specific radioactivity of tryptophan labeled with carbon-14 in plasma by high-performance liquid chromatograph with a synchronized accumulating radioisotope detector

open access: closedAnalytical Biochemistry, 1988
Measurement of specific radioactivity by a high-performance liquid chromatograph with a synchronized accumulating radioisotope detector was conducted. Accuracy of measurement for an authentic sample containing 0.2 nCi of tryptophan labeled with carbon-14 exceeded 95%.
