Article Synopsis
  • The study explores microbial diversity and metabolic potential in unique saline and freshwater lakes in southwestern Siberia, specifically a hypersaline lake in the Novosibirsk region.
  • Using a metagenomic approach, researchers analyzed the composition and structure of microbial communities in different sediment layers and found significant phyla such as Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria, and Bacteroidetes in the upper layers and different dominant bacteria in deeper layers.
  • The study reconstructed metabolic pathways to understand the microorganisms' roles in the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur, highlighting the relationships among different microbial taxa across various ecological niches.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers studied the microbial communities in the oil site, identifying their genetic characteristics and metabolic pathways related to hydrocarbon degradation, revealing significant links between geochemical factors and microbial community structure.
  • * The study concluded that geochemical parameters shape the composition and metabolic capabilities of these communities, with a predominant metabolic pathway for hydrocarbon oxidation, supporting the theory of abiogenic synthesis of Uzon’s hydrothermal petroleum.

The aim of this work was to study the one-pot synthesis of sorbitol via hydrolysis-hydrogenation of cellulose in the presence of Ru-containing composites based on HPWO supported on ZrO and NbO (Ru-PW/ZrO and Ru-PW/NbO). The main parameters impacted the reaction rate and yield of sorbitol, i.e.

The long-term operation of three reactors and the radiochemical plant of the Mining-and-Chemical Combine (MCC), Russia's largest producer of weapons-grade plutonium, has resulted in radioactive contamination of the Yenisei River floodplain. From 1995 to 2016, we found more than 200 radioactive particles (RP) in the Yenisei floodplain, downstream of the MCC. Analytical characterization showed that most of the RP were fuel particles, which were carried into the river after incidents at the MCC reactors.
