Stable isotope analysis provides new information on winter habitat use of declining avian migrants that is relevant to their conservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Winter habitat use and the magnitude of migratory connectivity are important parameters when assessing drivers of the marked declines in avian migrants. Such information is unavailable for most species.

Monodeuterated Methane, an Isotopic Tool To Assess Biological Methane Metabolism Rates

open access: yesmSphere, 2017
Biological methane oxidation is a globally relevant process that mediates the flux of an important greenhouse gas through both aerobic and anaerobic metabolic pathways.

Self‐Assembled Crystalline Peptoid Nanomaterials as Metal‐Free Enzyme Mimics for Enhanced Carbon Dioxide Hydration and Precipitation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by metal‐free carbonic anhydrases (CAs) that achieve efficient catalysis without metal cofactors, we herein report a sequence‐defined supramolecular peptoid platform that mimics metal‐free CAs and exhibits hydrolytic activity via a supramolecular assembly‐mediated proton‐transfer mechanism.

Burkholderiaceae Are Key Acetate Assimilators During Complete Denitrification in Acidic Cryoturbated Peat Circles of the Arctic Tundra

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Cryoturbated peat circles (pH 4) in the Eastern European Tundra harbor up to 2 mM pore water nitrate and emit the greenhouse gas N2O like heavily fertilized agricultural soils in temperate regions.

Selenium‐Integrated Cyanine Dye With Enhanced Photophysical Properties for Optoacoustic‐Guided Cancer Imaging and Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces selenium‐integrated cyanine dye (Se‐Cyn), with superior photostability, absorption, and photothermal efficiency, outperforming ICG in NIR window. Its nanoparticle form remains stable in water, accumulates in tumors, and enables strong optoacoustic imaging and effective phototherapy outcomes.

Comparative assessment of a restored and natural wetland using 13C-DNA SIP reveals a higher potential for methane production in the restored wetland

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology
Wetlands are the largest natural source of methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas produced by methanogens. Methanogenesis rates are controlled by environmental factors such as redox potential, temperature, and carbon and electron acceptor availability ...

Bacterial and Archaeal Specific-Predation in the North Atlantic Basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Stable isotope probing (SIP) was used to track prokaryotic and eukaryotic carbon uptake along a meridional transect (Long. 52°W) in the North Atlantic to assess if 13C-resource partitioning between bacteria and archaea and 13C-labeled eukaryotic ...

Availability of Nitrite and Nitrate as Electron Acceptors Modulates Anaerobic Toluene-Degrading Communities in Aquifer Sediments

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Microorganisms are essential in the degradation of environmental pollutants. Aromatic hydrocarbons, e.g., benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX), are common aquifer contaminants, whose degradation in situ is often limited by the availability ...

Stable-Isotope Probing of Human and Animal Microbiome Function [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology, 2018
Humans and animals host diverse communities of microorganisms important to their physiology and health. Despite extensive sequencing-based characterization of host-associated microbiomes, there remains a dramatic lack of understanding of microbial functions.
