Extensive prokaryotic maintenance respiration in the sea influenced by osmoregulation
Microbial respiration is the major process consuming oxygen in the biosphere. The relative energy demand from growth of biomass or maintenance activities determines the regulation of respiration with impact on how the development of hypoxia and CO2 ...

Factors controlling spatio-temporal variation in carbon dioxide efflux from surface litter, roots, and soil organic matter at four rain forest sites in the eastern Amazon [PDF]
This study explored biotic and abiotic causes for spatio-temporal variation in soil respiration from surface litter, roots, and soil organic matter over one year at four rain forest sites with different vegetation structures and soil types in the eastern

Suppression of mitochondrial respiration through recruitment of p160 myb binding protein to PGC-1α : modulation by p38 MAPK [PDF]
The transcriptional coactivator PPAR gamma coactivator 1 α (PGC-1α) is a key regulator of metabolic processes such as mitochondrial biogenesis and respiration in muscle and gluconeogenesis in liver. Reduced levels of PGC-1α in humans have been associated

Plastron Respiration Using Commercial Fabrics
A variety of insect and arachnid species are able to remain submerged in water indefinitely using plastron respiration. A plastron is a surface-retained film of air produced by surface morphology that acts as an oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange surface ...

Physiology of purple sulfur bacteria forming macroscopic aggregates in Great Sippewissett Salt Marsh, Massachusetts [PDF]
Purple bacterial aggregates found in tidal pools of Great Sippewissett Salt Marsh (Falmouth, Cape Cod, MA) were investigated in order to elucidate the ecological significance of cell aggregation. Purple sulfur bacteria were the dominant microorganisms in

RESPIRATION OF RAT PERITONEAL MAST CELLS [PDF]
Methods for microgasometry of a few hundred mast cells are described. The Cartesian ampulla diver technique is used. The sample size is determined by counting the cells within the diver. The respiration rates at 37°C, expressed in microliters per cell per hour, are 0.29 x 10-6 without substrate and 0.47 x 10-6 with glucose.

ESTIMATING CONTRIBUTION OF ZOOXANTHELLAE TO ANIMAL RESPIRATION (CZAR) AND TO ANIMAL GROWTH (CZAG) OF GIANT CLAM Tridacna maxima [PDF]
Zooxanthellae are symbiotic dinoflagellate algae which live in association with marine invertebrates including giant clams. These algae are capable of translocating part of their photosynthetic products to the host.
