Dissolved alkanes were collected from Dalv spring and Jiangjia spring from July to November, 2013, and were quantitatively analyzed by the gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS). The results show that the total content of dissolved alkanes in Dalv spring is 175-3279 ng x L(-1), with a mean value of 1011 ng x L(-1). In Jiangjia spring, the total content of dissolved alkanes is 282-775 ng x L(-1), with a mean value of 527 ng x L(-1). Ratios of the content of alkanes with high carbon number( C25-C32) to the total alkanes vary from 27.89% to 52.92% in Dalv spring, and 23.66% to 49.73% in Jangjia spring. Combined with CPI and OEP the relative contribution to the dissolved alkanes of higher plants are increasing in Dalv spring, however, it is different in Jiangjia spring. In addition, the values of L/H couldn't reflect different organic contributions to the dissolved alkanes, and the values of TAR may relate with rainfall.

Interactive effects of salinity, redox, and colloids on greenhouse gas production and carbon mobility in coastal wetland soils.

Coastal wetlands, including freshwater systems near large lakes, rapidly bury carbon, but less is known about how they transport carbon either to marine and lake environments or to the atmosphere as greenhouse gases (GHGs) such as carbon dioxide and methane. This study examines how GHG production and organic matter (OM) mobility in coastal wetland soils vary with the availability of oxygen and other terminal electron acceptors. We also evaluated how OM and redox-sensitive species varied across different size fractions: particulates (0.

Peatlands are important global stores of carbon. However, peatland disturbance, including climate change, can cause stored carbon to be released, shifting peatlands from net carbon sinks to net carbon sources. Yet, there is a paucity of data on the carbon cycling of Australian peatlands from which to inform effective management of the peatland carbon store.

Background: Planetary plastic pollution poses a major threat to ecosystems and human health in the Anthropocene, yet its impact on biogeochemical cycling remains poorly understood. Waterlogged rice paddies are globally important sources of CH. Given the widespread use of plastic mulching in soils, it is urgent to unravel whether low-density polyethylene (LDPE) will affect the methanogenic community in flooded paddy soils.

Aqueous-soluble hydrocarbons dissolve into the ocean's interior and structure deep-sea microbial populations influenced by natural oil seeps and spills. n-Pentane is a seawater-soluble, volatile compound abundant in petroleum products and reservoirs and will partially partition to the deep-water column following release from the seafloor. In this study, we explore the ecology and niche partitioning of two free-living Cycloclasticus strains recovered from seawater incubations with n-pentane and distinguish them as an open ocean variant and a seep-proximal variant, each with distinct capabilities for hydrocarbon catabolism.

Researchers have reported that soluble undenatured type II collagen (SC II) and hydrophobic phytochemicals (HPs) can ameliorate osteoarthritis (OA) through several mechanisms. However, the solubility of HPs, the stability of SC II, and the bio-accessibility of both need to be greatly improved before they can be successfully used for this purpose. In this study, two common HPs, curcumin (CUR, a hydrophobic polyphenol) and astaxanthin (AST, a carotenoid), were first loaded into SC II, which was then complexed with chondroitin sulfate (CS) to form ternary complexes: SC II-HP-CS.
