A self-sustaining serpentinization mega-engine feeds the fougerite nanoengines implicated in the emergence of guided metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The demonstration by Ivan Barnes et al. that the serpentinization of fresh Alpine-type ultramafic rocks results in the exhalation of hot alkaline fluids is foundational to the submarine alkaline vent theory (AVT) for life’s emergence to its ‘improbable ...

Serpentinization-Associated Mineral Catalysis of the Protometabolic Formose System

open access: yesLife, 2023
The formose reaction is a plausible prebiotic chemistry, famed for its production of sugars. In this work, we demonstrate that the Cannizzaro process is the dominant process in the formose reaction under many different conditions, thus necessitating a ...

Constraints on Bend‐Faulting and Mantle Hydration at the Marianas Trench From Seismic Anisotropy

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Subduction zones are a key link between the surface water cycle and the solid Earth, as the incoming plate carries pore water and hydrous minerals into the subsurface.

Intact polar lipidome and membrane adaptations of microbial communities inhabiting serpentinite-hosted fluids

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The generation of hydrogen and reduced carbon compounds during serpentinization provides sustained energy for microorganisms on Earth, and possibly on other extraterrestrial bodies (e.g., Mars, icy satellites).

An untargeted exometabolomics approach to characterize dissolved organic matter in groundwater of the Samail Ophiolite

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The process of serpentinization supports life on Earth and gives rise to the habitability of other worlds in our Solar System. While numerous studies have provided clues to the survival strategies of microbial communities in serpentinizing environments ...

Native H2 Exploration in the Western Pyrenean Foothills

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Native hydrogen (H2) may represent a new carbon free‐energy resource, but to date there is no specific exploration guide to target H2‐fertile geological settings. Here, we present the first soil gas survey specifically designed to explore H2 migration in

Characterization of Geochemistry in Hydrothermal Sediments From the Newly Discovered Onnuri Vent Field in the Middle Region of the Central Indian Ridge

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The recently discovered Onnuri hydrothermal vent field (OVF) is a typical off-axis ultramafic-hosted vent system, located on the summit of the dome-like ocean core complex (OCC) at a distance of ∼12 km from the ridge axis along the middle region of the ...

Giant serpentine aneurysms [PDF]

open access: yesNeurosurgical Focus, 2009
Segal and McLaurin first described giant serpentine aneurysms, based on their distinct angiographic features, in 1977. These lesions are ≥ 25 mm, partially thrombosed aneurysms with a patent, serpiginous vascular channel that courses through the aneurysm.

Giant serpentine aneurysm [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2016
A 34-year-old man with a history of seizures presented after a generalised seizure. An MRI of the brain and MR angiogram of the brain (figure 1) were performed, demonstrating a partially thrombosed, giant intracranial aneurysm involving the left anterior cerebral artery (ACA).

Wearable Smart Patches on Sustainable Chitosan With Reversible Microbial Growth‐Inhibitory Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitosan, a polysaccharide upcycled from biowaste, has long promised sustainable, biocompatible, and antimicrobial films and devices, an appeal reinforced by its recent regulatory recognition, with several chitosan‐based antibacterial dressings gaining clearance through the Food and Drug Administration's 510(k) pathway.
