Gene probing reveals the widespread distribution, diversity and abundance of isoprene-degrading bacteria in the environment

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2018
Background Approximately 500 Tg of isoprene are emitted to the atmosphere annually, an amount similar to that of methane, and despite its significant effects on the climate, very little is known about the biological degradation of isoprene in the ...

Molecular Ecology of Isoprene-Degrading Bacteria

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Isoprene is a highly abundant biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) that is emitted to the atmosphere in amounts approximating to those of methane.

Relationships between photosynthesis and formaldehyde as a probe of isoprene emission [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Atmospheric oxidation of isoprene emission from land plants affects radiative forcing of global climate change. There is an urgent need to understand the factors that control isoprene emission variability on large spatiotemporal scales but such direct ...

Isoprene: An Antioxidant Itself or a Molecule with Multiple Regulatory Functions in Plants?

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
Isoprene (C5H8) is a small lipophilic, volatile organic compound (VOC), synthesized in chloroplasts of plants through the photosynthesis-dependent 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway.

Biodegradation of isoprene by soil Actinomycetota from coffee-tea integrated plantations in a tropical evergreen forest

open access: yesCurrent Research in Microbial Sciences
Isoprene, a biogenic volatile compound emitted largely by plants, can form greenhouse gases when it reacts with atmospheric radicals. A significant amount of isoprene is absorbed into soil and can be degraded by soil microorganisms, but our understanding

Isoprene emission characteristics of tall and dwarf bamboos

open access: yesAtmospheric Environment: X, 2021
Considerable isoprene emissions from several bamboo species have been reported. However, bamboos are highly diverse in taxonomy and have different niches or habitats among species, and the present investigation might be insufficient to conclude a ...

Block Copolymers: Emerging Building Blocks for Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review addresses how block copolymer (BCP) physics and rheology have led to the widespread use of BCPs in advanced additive manufacturing techniques, with particular emphasis on the untapped potential of these nanostructured materials toward achieving multi‐scale architected materials with unique, programmable material properties.

A Two-Decade Anthropogenic and Biogenic Isoprene Emissions Study in a London Urban Background and a London Urban Traffic Site

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2018
A relationship between isoprene and 1,3-butadiene mixing ratios was established to separate the anthropogenic and biogenic fractions of the measured isoprene in London air in both urban background (Eltham) and urban traffic (Marylebone Road) areas over ...

Synergetic Effects of Isoprene and HOx on Biogenic New Particle Formation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
New particle formation (NPF) has been observed at various locations, but NPF does not occur in isoprene‐dominant forests. Recent laboratory studies were conducted to understand the role of isoprene in biogenic NPF, and these studies show that isoprene ...

Room Temperature Synthesis and Photopatterning of Mesoporous Titanium Dioxide Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A nanofabrication strategy combining deep‐UV photolithography with block copolymer self‐assembly enables direct patterning and mineralization of mesoporous TiO2 thin films at room temperature. Photocatalytic titanium oxo‐clusters promote polymer degradation under UV irradiation, enabling multiscale control over porosity, film thickness, and lateral ...
