Competition of two Sulfurospirillum populations for tetrachloroethene

Tetrachloroethene (PCE) represents a major groundwater pollutant. Some bacteria are able to use PCE as electron acceptor in an anaerobic respiration process called organohalide respiration (OHR). An anaerobic enrichment culture (named SL2-PCEb) consisting ...

The Value Of Employee Retention: Evidence From A Natural Experiment

Kenneth Younge

We estimate the firm-level returns to retaining employees using difference-in-differences analysis and a natural experiment where the enforcement of employee noncompete agreements was inadvertently reversed in Michigan. We find that noncompete enforcement ...

Isolation of a Star-Shaped Uranium(V/VI) Cluster from the Anaerobic Photochemical Reduction of Uranyl(VI)

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain

Actinide oxo clusters are an important class of compounds due to their impact on actinide migration in the environment. The photolytic reduction of uranyl(VI) has potential application in catalysis and spent nuclear fuel reprocessing, but the intermediate ...

An ecological approach for understanding the reductive dechlorination process of chlorinated ethenes in contaminated aquifers

Christof Holliger, Pierre Rossi, Sonia Estelle Tarnawski

Chlorinated ethenes, frequently encountered contaminants in groundwater, are often found to be incompletely dechlorinated to dichloroethene and vinyl chloride, more toxic products that accumulate in the aquifer. Some of the concerns in designing remediatio ...

Inferring species interactions in ecological communities: a comparison of methods at different levels of complexity

Andrea Rinaldo, Andrea Giometto, Francesco Carrara, Florian Altermatt

Natural communities commonly contain many different species and functional groups, and multiple types of species interactions act simultaneously, such as competition, predation, commensalism or mutualism. However, experimental and theoretical investigat ...

Experimental evidence for strong stabilizing forces at high functional diversity of aquatic microbial communities

Andrea Rinaldo, Andrea Giometto, Francesco Carrara, Florian Altermatt

Unveiling the mechanisms that promote coexistence in biological communities is a fundamental problem in ecology. Stable coexistence of many species is commonly observed in natural communities. Most of these natural communities, however, are composed of spe ...

Economic Impacts of Future Changes in the Energy System - Global Perspectives

Marc Vielle

In a climate constrained future, hybrid energy-economy model coupling gives additional insight into interregional competition, trade, industrial delocalisation and overall macroeconomic consequences of decarbonising the energy system. Decarbonising the ene ...

Mode of Action of Clofazimine and Combination Therapy with Benzothiazinones against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Benoit Lechartier

Clofazimine (CZM) is an antileprosy drug that was recently repurposed for treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. In Mycobacterium tuberculosis, CZM appears to act as a prodrug, which is reduced by NADH dehydrogenase (NDH-2), to release reactive oxy ...
