Anaerobic arsenic methylation as a microbial warfare strategy

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Karin Lederballe Meibom, Nicolas Louis Maurice Jacquemin, Hugo Sallet, Jiangtao Qiao

Microbial arsenic methylation is established as a detoxification process under aerobic conditions (converting arsenite to monomethylated arsenate) but proposed to be a microbial warfare strategy under anoxic conditions due to the toxicity of its main produ ...

Insertion of germanium atoms in high- nuclearity rhodium carbonyl compounds: synthesis, characterization and preliminary biological activity of the heterometallic [ Rh13Ge( CO) 25] 3-, [ Rh14Ge2( CO) 30] 2-and [ Rh12Ge( CO) 27] 4-clusters+

Paul Joseph Dyson, Silvia Ruggieri

The reaction of the Rh-7(CO)(16) cluster anion with Ge2+ salts, in different stoichiometric ratios and under different atmospheres, leads to the formation of new heterometallic Rh-Ge clusters, representing the first known examples of Rh carbonyl comp ...

Arsenic methylation dynamics in a rice paddy soil anaerobic enrichment culture

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Julien Maillard, Alexandre Bagnoud, Leia Soraya Véronique Falquet, Matthew Charles Reid

Methylated arsenic (As) species represent a significant fraction of the As accumulating in rice grains, and there are geographic patterns in the abundance of methylated arsenic in rice that are not understood. The microorganisms driving As biomethylation i ...

Structured Non-Noble Metal Catalysts for the Liquid-Phase Reduction of Nitroaromatics

Oliver Anthony Beswick

The industrial production of aromatic amines, essential intermediates for the synthesis of several drugs, dyes, pigments and agrochemicals, requires the use of heterogeneous catalysis. These molecules were formerly produced by the Béchamp reduction, a non- ...

Compact portable biosensor for arsenic detection in aqueous samples with Escherichia coli bioreporter cells

Philippe Renaud, Harald Van Lintel, Nina Buffi

We present a compact portable biosensor to measure arsenic As(III) concentrations in water using Escherichia coli bioreporter cells. Escherichia coli expresses green fluorescent protein in a linearly dependent manner as a function of the arsenic concentrat ...

Development of a microfluidics biosensor for agarose-bead immobilized Escherichia coli bioreporter cells for arsenite detection in aqueous samples

Philippe Renaud, Harald Van Lintel, Nina Buffi

Contamination with arsenic is a recurring problem in both industrialized and developing countries. Drinking water supplies for large populations can have concentrations much higher than the permissible levels (for most European countries and the United Sta ...

Biochip with E. coli bacteria for detection of arsenic in drinking water

Philippe Renaud, Thomas Michael Braschler, Harald Van Lintel, Jan Roelof van der Meer, Joël Theytaz

Arsenic and other pollutants are often present in trace amounts in drinking water in a number of countries. In aqueous solutions the sensitivity of arsenic- responsive bacterial bioreporters is far better than the performance of chemical field test kits. H ...

Geochemical and hydrologic controls on the mobilization of arsenic derived from herbicide application

Janet Gordon Hering

The fate and transport of As was examined at an industrial site where soil- and groundwater contamination are derived from the application of As2O3 as a herbicide. Application of arsenical herbicides was discontinued in the 1970s and soils in the source ar ...

A gel probe equilibrium sampler for measuring arsenic porewater profiles and sorption gradients in sediments: I. Laboratory development

Janet Gordon Hering

A gel probe equilibrium sampler has been developed to study arsenic (As) geochemistry and sorption behavior in sediment porewater. The gels consist of a hydrated polyacrylamide polymer, which has a 92% water content. Two types of gels were used in this stu ...
