Development of an NDIR CO2 Sensor-Based System for Assessing Soil Toxicity Using Substrate-Induced Respiration [PDF]
Sensors, 2015 The eco-toxicological indicators used to evaluate soil quality complement the physico-chemical criteria employed in contaminated site remediation, but their cost, time, sophisticated analytical methods and in-situ inapplicability pose a major challenge ...

Positive relationship between substrate-induced respiration rate and translationally active bacterial counts in soil [PDF]
mSystemsSoil microorganisms perform biogeochemical processes fundamental to soil functions. Bulk respiration, or microbial metabolic emission of CO2, is the classic indicator of soil biological activity.

Decreased carbon limitation of litter respiration in a mortality-affected piñon–juniper woodland [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Microbial respiration depends on microclimatic variables and carbon (C) substrate availability, all of which are altered when ecosystems experience major disturbance. Widespread tree mortality, currently affecting piñon–juniper ecosystems in southwestern

Risk Assessment of Psychotropic Drugs on Mitochondrial Function Using In Vitro Assays
Biomedicines, 2023 Mitochondria are potential targets responsible for some drug- and xenobiotic-induced organ toxicities. However, molecular mechanisms of drug-induced mitochondrial toxicities are mostly unknown.

The Calorigenic Nature of Hepatic Ketogenesis: An Explanation for the Stimulation of Respiration Induced by Fatty Acid Substrates [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1983 The rates of O2 consumption during fatty acid oxidation to acetyl‐CoA and to CO2 were determined for isolated liver cells from starved rats on the basis of measured rates of respiration and ketogenesis. About 60% of the endogenous O2 uptake was associated with acetyl‐CoA formation.
