Microbially Mediated Processes in Environmental Chemistry by Kurt W. Hanselmann

“…. – In order to assess microbially mediated catalysis within sediments as a driving mechanism for the cycling of elements through their many specialized metabolic pathways, we need to better understand: The microbial habitats within sediments; the kind of microbes present and their interaction with each other and their surroundings; the influence of thermodynamic constraints on microbial existence; the microbial behavior towards transient environmental conditions; and the efficiency of microbes as biological diffusion barriers or diffusion promotors at the sediment-water interface. – In this presentation I will summarize our views on a few basic questions of environmental microbiology: Where do microbes live in sediments? …”

Enhancing the speed of DNA walkers through soft confinement by Mathew O. Ogieva, Wolfgang G. Pfeifer, Sebastian Sensale

“…Trench-like confinement yields a more modest threefold increase, what, while significant, requires extensive structural modifications to the DNA track, limiting design flexibility and reducing cost-efficiency in comparison to the tailed footholds. The combination of tailed footholds and trench-like confinement turns the walker-foothold system bistable, with two distinct stable states separated by an energy barrier. …”

Effect of pre-conditioning on the carbonation curing characteristics of belite-rich cement paste by Xuanru Wu, Geon Noh, Jeong Gook Jang

“…The results suggest that CO2 penetration alters the hydration mechanism of BRC paste and that pre-conditioning enhances both carbonation curing efficiency and overall physicochemical properties. Compared to untreated samples, pre-conditioned specimens exhibited higher compressive strength, primarily due to the removal of internal moisture, which increased the reactive surface area for CO2, facilitated its rapid diffusion, and promoted more uniform carbonation. …”
