Insights into the physiological and genomic characterization of three bacterial isolates from a highly alkaline, terrestrial serpentinizing system

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The terrestrial serpentinite-hosted ecosystem known as “The Cedars” is home to a diverse microbial community persisting under highly alkaline (pH ~ 12) and reducing (Eh < −550 mV) conditions.

ANTIHISTAMINASE ACTIVITY OF SERPENTINE [PDF]

British Journal of Pharmacology and Chemotherapy, 1961
Serpentine, an alkaloid of Rauwolfia serpentina, specifically potentiates histamine responses of guinea‐pig ileum, uterus, and tracheal chain. It also inhibits histaminase in vitro. Its antihistaminase activity is equivalent to that of aminoguanidine.

Biohybrid Crawling Robot With Spiral‐Spring Backbone and Inclined Legs for Enhanced Locomotion

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present a biohybrid crawling robot integrating a muscle ring with a flexible skeleton combining two complementary structural elements. The spiral‐spring backbone enables large‐amplitude bending without compromising axial stability, while outward‐inclined legs with unequal front–rear lengths effectively convert deformation into directional strides ...

Pulsated Global Hydrogen and Methane Flux at Mid‐Ocean Ridges Driven by Pangea Breakup

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Molecular hydrogen production occurs through the serpentinization of mantle peridotite exhumed at mid‐ocean ridges. Hydrogen is considered essential to sustain microbial life in the subsurface; however, estimates of hydrogen flux through geological time ...

Understanding Operando Water Management in Hydroxide‐Exchange‐Membrane Fuel Cells

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Effective water management is vital for high‐performance hydroxide‐exchange‐membrane fuel cells. Using a custom water‐flux station, this study quantifies how membrane thickness, microporous layers, and operating conditions dictate internal water transport.

Thermodynamic Predictions of Hydrogen Generation during the Serpentinization of Harzburgite with Seawater-derived Brines

The Planetary Science Journal
Salty aqueous solutions (brines) occur on Earth and may be prevalent elsewhere. Serpentinization represents a family of geochemical reactions where the hydration of olivine-rich rocks can release aqueous hydrogen, H _2(aq) , as a byproduct, and hydrogen ...

High Throughput Aerosol Jet Printing to Operationalize High Aspect Ratio Patterning

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
High‐throughput aerosol jet printing poses distinct limiting mechanisms to the printing process. These include rapidly changing ink chemistries, atomization instabilities, and liquid‐phase spreading. The combination of in‐line heating, process monitoring, and traditional optimization procedures enables rapid printing of high‐aspect‐ratio structures ...
