Article Synopsis
- Color dissolved organic matter (CDOM) in lakes is influenced by both external (allochthonous) inputs and internal (autochthonous) production, significantly affecting its composition and cycling.
- A study was conducted in Lake Fuxian, China, to analyze CDOM during the wet season and compare its characteristics with other lakes, revealing that riverine CDOM had higher levels of humic-like substances while Lake Fuxian's CDOM was mainly protein-like.
- The findings showed that although CDOM composition varied across various lakes, the quantity increased significantly in deeper lakes with well-vegetated catchments, suggesting that allochthonous inputs impact CDOM but can be moderated by in-lake processing dynamics.
Article Synopsis
- Shallow lakes can be dominated by either macrophytes or algae, which leads to distinct types of organic matter (OM) in their sediments that affect carbon storage and processing.
- A study compared sediments from Taihu Lake's macrophyte-dominated (East Taihu Lake) and algae-dominated zones (Meiliang Bay), using various spectroscopic techniques to analyze the water-soluble organic matter (WSOM).
- Results indicated that the WSOM from the macrophyte zone had larger molecular sizes and higher humification levels compared to the algae zone, while there was a greater presence of protein-like substances in the algae-dominated sediments.
Background: Teratoma is a common tumor, but rarely occurs in the parotid region. Only nine cases have been reported in the current literature. Although it is generally detected in infancy or childhood, it is commonly asymptomatic.

A large amount of intracellular dissolved organic matter (I-DOM) is released during the senescent phase of phytoplankton cultures. This research investigated the bio-incubation of I-DOM of cyanobacteria in Lake Taihu under various temperatures (20, 25, and 30℃) and I-DOM initial concentrations (5, 10, and 20 mg·L) with the aid of ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) and three-dimensional fluorescence matrix-parallel factor (EEM-PARAFAC). I-DOM was effectively degraded during the incubation.

miRNAs are a class of noncoding RNA molecules about 18-25 nt in length. As key gene expression regulatory factors, they may inhibit or degrade mRNA by incompletely or completely complement to mRNA. Their abnormal expressions are closely related with the carcinogenesis of prostate cancer (PCa).
