Five-S-isotope evidence of two distinct mass-independent sulfur isotope effects and implications for the modern and Archean atmospheres. [PDF]
The signature of mass-independent fractionation of quadruple sulfur stable isotopes (S-MIF) in Archean rocks, ice cores, and Martian meteorites provides a unique probe of the oxygen and sulfur cycles in the terrestrial and Martian paleoatmospheres.

Sulfur Isotope Effects of Dissimilatory Sulfite Reductase. [PDF]
AbstractThe precise interpretation of environmental sulfur isotope records requires a quantitative understanding of the biochemical controls on sulfur isotope fractionation by the principle isotope-fractionating process within the S cycle, microbial sulfate reduction (MSR).

Sulfur Stable Isotope Discrimination in Rice: A Sulfur Isotope Mass Balance Study. [PDF]
The use of sulfur (S) stable isotopes to study S metabolism in plants is still limited by the relatively small number of studies. It is generally accepted that less S stable isotope discrimination occurs during sulfate (SO42–) uptake. However, S metabolism and allocation are expected to produce separations of S stable isotopes among the different plant

Sulfur isotope composition in the Plesenci native sulfur mineral deposit, Republic of Macedonia [PDF]
For the first time, we present our findings of the origin of sulfur in the gypsum and native sulfur within the Plesenci deposit, R.Macedonia. There we made a series of complex research and analysis of the light isotope (32S), heavy isotope (34S), and ...

Predictive isotope model connects microbes in culture and nature [PDF]
In PNAS, Wing and Halevy (1) present a new model that quantitatively describes the magnitude of sulfur isotope fractionation produced by dissimilatory microbial sulfate reduction (MSR).

Recombination Reactions as a Possible Mechanism of Mass-Independent Fractionation of Sulfur Isotopes in the Archean Atmosphere of Earth [PDF]
A hierarchy of isotopically substituted recombination reactions is formulated for production of sulfur allotropes in the anoxic atmosphere of Archean Earth.

Hydrogen and oxygen isotope ratios of thermal waters of Okayama Prefecture, Japan [PDF]
Hydrogen and oxygen isotope rations of thermal waters from 46 spas in Okayama Prefecture range from -62.6 to -29.2% in δD and from -10.0 to -4.4% in δ18O, respectively.

Sulphur-isotope compositions of pig tissues from a controlled feeding study [PDF]
Sulphur-isotope determinations are becoming increasingly useful for palaeodietary reconstruction, but knowledge of isotopic discrimination between diet and various tissues remains inadequate. In this study, we explore the sensitivity of δ34Stissue values

Inhibition of microbial sulfate reduction in a flow-through column system by (per)chlorate treatment. [PDF]
Microbial sulfate reduction is a primary cause of oil reservoir souring. Here we show that amendment with chlorate or perchlorate [collectively (per)chlorate] potentially resolves this issue. Triplicate packed columns inoculated with marine sediment were

Seasonal changes in microbial dissolved organic sulfur transformations in coastal waters [PDF]
The marine trace gas dimethylsulfide (DMS) is the single most important biogenic source of atmospheric sulfur, accounting for up to 80% of global biogenic sulfur emissions.
