Achieving zero waste won’t be easy. But, I know for sure we’ll never achieve it without deliberate effort.
Monitoring the Riverine Pulse
Improving our understanding of hydrologic and biogeochemical processes through nitrate evolution.
The Tandem Zinc Finger RNA Binding Domain of Members of the Tristetraprolin (TTP) Protein Family
Proteins with similar domain structures and activities have been found throughout eukaryotes, demonstrating that this protein family arose from an ancient ancestor.
Cold Plasma To Clean Up Our Water
A team of Canadian researchers has shown that direct contact between an AP “cold” oxidizing plasma source and water that contains very high concentrations of cyanobacteria and green algae, along with associated BMAA toxin, could be quite rapidly (in minutes) decontaminated with modest energy input.
Microtruck Delivery Service: Transporting Microcargo using Amoeboid Cells
Amoeboid cell microtransporters carry microcargo in an independent, self-organized fashion.
Ecological Impact is a Two-Way Street
A hierarchical perspective should be dropped in favor of a framework that recognizes organisms as an integral part of the environment.
Controlling Cells with Light and LOV
The broad applications of LOV domains in optogenetics are reviewed.
The Host-Associated Microbiome: A Special Issue in Molecular Ecology
Analyses representing the state-of-the-art in our understanding of the complex host–microbiome relationship are presented.
Special Issue: Fats and Oils as Renewable Feedstock for the Chemical Industry
Fats and oils derived from plants, microorganisms and animals are an excellent feedstock for the “green” and renewable chemical industry.
Lipid-Extracted Microalgal Biomass Waste for Biogas
To confront global warming, climate changes and a potential energy shortage, biodiesel has been receiving increasing interest as a substitute for diesel fuels in efforts to seek for sustainable development. Microalgae-derived biodiesel is a promising energy source.
