Cell proliferation at 122°C and isotopically heavy CH4 production by a hyperthermophilic methanogen under high-pressure cultivation
Ken Takai,Kentaro Nakamura,Tomohiro Toki,Urumu Tsunogai,Masayuki Miyazaki,Junichi Miyazaki,Hisako Hirayama,Satoshi Nakagawa,Takuro Nunoura,Koki Horikoshi +9 more
TL;DR: Under conventional growth conditions, the isotope fractionation of methanogenesis by M. kandleri strain 116 was similar to values previously reported for other hydrogenotrophic methanogens, but under high hydrostatic pressures, the atom fractionation effect became much smaller, and the kinetic isotope effect was one of the smallest effects ever reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deep-sea mud in the Pacific Ocean as a potential resource for rare-earth elements
Yasuhiro Kato,Koichiro Fujinaga,Kentaro Nakamura,Yutaro Takaya,Kenichi Kitamura,Junichiro Ohta,Ryuichi Toda,Takuya Nakashima,Hikaru Iwamori +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of more than 2,000 seafloor sediment samples suggests that deep-sea mud constitutes a highly promising giant resource for rare-earth elements and the metal yttrium.
Journal ArticleDOI
The full stomach test as a novel diagnostic technique for identifying patients at risk of Brugada syndrome.
Takanori Ikeda,Atsuko Abe,Satoru Yusu,Kentaro Nakamura,Haruhisa Ishiguro,Hisaaki Mera,Masayuki Yotsukura,Hideaki Yoshino +7 more
TL;DR: The usefulness of a novel diagnostic technique, the “full stomach test,” for identifying a high‐risk group in patients with a Brugada‐type electrocardiogram (ECG) is assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The tremendous potential of deep-sea mud as a source of rare-earth elements
Yutaro Takaya,Kazutaka Yasukawa,Kazutaka Yasukawa,Takehiro Kawasaki,Koichiro Fujinaga,Koichiro Fujinaga,Junichiro Ohta,Junichiro Ohta,Junichiro Ohta,Yoichi Usui,Kentaro Nakamura,Jun-Ichi Kimura,Qing Chang,Morihisa Hamada,Gjergj Dodbiba,Tatsuo Nozaki,Koichi Iijima,Morisawa Tomohiro,Kuwahara Takuma,Ishida Yasuyuki,Takao Ichimura,Masaki Kitazume,Toyohisa Fujita,Yasuhiro Kato,Yasuhiro Kato,Yasuhiro Kato +25 more
TL;DR: The enormous resource amount and the effectiveness of the mineral processing are strong indicators that this new REY resource could be exploited in the near future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbonatization of oceanic crust by the seafloor hydrothermal activity and its significance as a CO2 sink in the Early Archean
Kentaro Nakamura,Yasuhiro Kato +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the early Archean (3.46 Ga) hydrothermally altered basaltic rocks exposed near Marble Bar, eastern Pilbara Craton, have been studied in order to reveal geological and geochemical natures of seafloor hydrothermal carbonatization and to estimate the CO2 flux sunk into the altered oceanic crust by the carbonatisation.
