In this study, we present new data on the δ^7^Li values and Li/(Ca+Mg) ratios of carbonate cores from the Great Bahama Bank (Clino, Unda), a deep water core off of the bank top (ODP Leg 166 Site 1007), and the coralline Key Largo Limestone. We use these samples to evaluate the influence of meteoric diagenesis, marine burial diagenesis, and dolomitization on the Li isotope system in carbonates. We find that recrystallization of aragonite to low-Mg calcite in the presence of meteoric fluids results ...

Enhanced rock weathering (ERW) is a promising scalable and cost-effective carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategy with significant environmental and agronomic co-benefits. A major barrier to large-scale implementation of ERW is a robust monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) framework. To successfully quantify the amount of carbon dioxide removed by ERW, MRV must be accurate, precise, and cost-effective. Here, we outline a mass-balance-based method in which analysis of the chemical composition ...

The evolution of the global carbon and silicon cycles is thought to have contributed to the long-term stability of Earth's climate1-3. Many questions remain, however, regarding the feedback mechanisms at play, and there are limited quantitative constraints on the sources and sinks of these elements in Earth's surface environments4-12. Here we argue that the lithium-isotope record can be used to track the processes controlling the long-term carbon and silicon cycles. By analysing more than 600 shallow- ...

Abstract Background Group A Streptococcus is responsible for severe and potentially lethal invasive conditions requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission, such as streptococcal toxic shock-like syndrome (STSS). A rebound of invasive group A streptococcal (iGAS) infection after COVID-19-associated barrier measures has been observed in children. Several intensivists of French adult ICUs have reported similar bedside impressions without objective data. We aimed to compare the incidence of iGAS infection ...

Abstract Approximately 1450 persons, 800 of them unrelated, of both sexes from age eigth upward from the town of Ticul, Yucatán, Mexico, formed an American Indian (Maya) sample with apparently little Caucasian admixture for four genetic tests: ability to taste PTC and smell HCN, presence of mid‐phalangeal hair, and color blindness. A modified PTC sorting test indicated a nontaster allele ( t ) frequency of 0.29 in Ticul, a relatively high result for American Indians but compatible with previously reported ...

Mass-balance among reduced and oxidized solution species exerts a strong control on the isotopic composition of sulphide minerals. We explore this issue for copper isotopic fractionation in sedimentary copper sulfide deposits through fluid speciation-isotopic Eh–pH calculations based on the thermodynamic stability of copper chloride aqueous solution complexes and experimentally measured copper isotope fractionation factors. Applying these speciation diagrams to MC-ICP-MS copper isotope data on the ...

A hormonal servomechanism has been proposed to regulate differentiation and function of the endometrial glandular epithelium (GE) in the ovine uterus during pregnancy. This mechanism involves sequential actions of estrogen, progesterone, ovine interferon τ (IFNτ), placental lactogen (oPL), and placental growth hormone (oGH). The biological actions of oPL in vitro are mediated by homodimerization of the prolactin receptor (oPRLR) and heterodimerization of the oPRLR and oGH receptor. The objectives of ...

The capacity of many microorganisms for antagonism towards pathogens is unknown and previously uncharacterized species may be potentially useful in this respect. This work presents the evaluation of the capacity of a previously uncharacterized Ascomycete, denominated here as UA to protect chili pepper (Capsicum annuum) against Phytophthora capsici, and other soil-borne plant pathogens and establishes the role of UA as a biocontrol agent. Inoculation of UA 2 days before the inoculation of P. capsici ...

The directed evolution of proteins has benefited greatly from site-specific methods of diversification such as saturation mutagenesis. These techniques target diversity to a number of chosen positions that are usually non-contiguous in the protein's primary structure. However, the number of targeted positions can be large, thus leading to impractically large library size, wherein almost all library variants are inactive and the likelihood of selecting desirable properties is extremely small. We ...

Evolution requires the generation and optimization of new traits ("adaptation") and involves the selection of mutations that improve cellular function. These mutations were assumed to arise by selection of neutral mutations present at all times in the population. Here we review recent evidence that indicates that deleterious mutations are more frequent in the population than previously recognized and that these mutations play a significant role in protein evolution through continuous positive selection. ...

Copper isotopes (65Cu/63Cu) are potentially powerful new geochemical proxies for oxidation–reduction processes and metallic cycling. This research presents a Cu-isotope study of mineralization in historically mined stratiform sediment-hosted copper (SSC) ore deposits of the Precambrian and Cambrian rocks of the Timna Valley, southern Israel. These deposits provide a natural laboratory for studying isotopic fractionations between Cu-sulphides and Cu(II) minerals (copper carbonates, hydroxides and silicates), ...

Hence, semantic processing of multiple-word expressions, and performing of abstract mathematical computations, are widely believed to require consciousness.

Ticks are obligatory blood-sucking arthropods. Their life cycle includes a relatively short period of feeding on a vertebrate host and a long off-host period spent in the upper layer of the soil. Entomopathogenic fungi are known to be highly effective tick pathogens and the on-host application of these fungi may be a promising economic approach for tick control. In this study, we evaluated the tick control provided by spraying Metarhizium brunneum onto the tick's vertebrate host, specifically gerbils ( ...
