ChemBioChem, EarlyView.The discovery of a terpene synthase of insect origin that makes the apparently cryptic product nephthenol from geranylgeranyl diphosphate sheds light on hidden biosynthetic potential. Populations of the sandfly, Lutzomyia longipalpis, use the diterpene sobralene as a sex/aggregation pheromone, which is likely produced in the insect through the activity

Domestic dog ownership in Iran is a risk factor for human infection with Leishmania infantum. [PDF]
, 2002 One explanation proposed for the widespread failure to control zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis by culling infected domestic dogs is that wild canids or humans play significant roles in transmission.

AI and the Future of Disputing: Naming, Blaming, Claiming, and Preventing
Conflict Resolution Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper explores the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on dispute resolution mechanisms. Our analysis builds on the longstanding framework for explaining the stages through which disputes evolve: the “naming, blaming, claiming” model by Felstiner, Abel, and Sarat (1981).

Alkali Content of Fly Ash – Measuring and Testing Strategies for Compliance, TR-628, 2015 [PDF]
, 2015 Sodium and potassium are the common alkalis present in fly ash. Excessive amounts of fly ash alkalis can cause efflorescence problems in concrete products and raise concern about the effectiveness of the fly ash to mitigate alkali-silica reaction (ASR ...

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Microbialites are common throughout the rock record and key to our understanding of Earth history, yet a relatively common microscopy technique—cathodoluminescence (CL)—has not previously been leveraged to understand them. In this contribution, we examine microbialites of varying ages (modern to Proterozoic) with CL and report on the patterns and ...
