Emission of CO2 and CH4 to the atmosphere by sediments and open waters in two Tanzanian mangrove forests

TL;DR: In this article, the carbon gas balance in an anthropogenically impacted (Mtoni) and a pris- tine (Ras Dege) mangrove forest in Tanzania was evaluated using in situ and laboratory incubations.

Cytokines in Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: Human astrocytoma cells produced biologically active interleukin-6 when treated with a variety of agents including bacterial lipopolysaccharides, viruses, and interleuxin-1, which stimulated the synthesis of the Alzheimer's disease beta-amyloid precursor protein.

Gas-phase hydrogen/deuterium exchange as a molecular probe for the interaction of methanol and protonated peptides

TL;DR: The gas-phase hydrogen/deuterium exchange kinetics of several protonated amino acids and dipeptides under a background pressure of CH3OD were determined in an external source Fourier transform mass spectrometer.

Mineralogical composition of sands in Meridiani Planum determined from Mars Exploration Rover data and comparison to orbital measurements

TL;DR: In this article, the mineralogical composition of low-albedo, low-sulfur sands at Meridiani Planum is determined from Mars Exploration Rover (MER) Opportunity Miniature Thermal Emission Spectrometer (Mini-TES), Mossbauer, and Alpha Proton X-Ray Spectrometers measurements.

Stratospheric and tropospheric components of 7Be in surface air

TL;DR: In this article, the average 7Be concentration in the samples collected in the lower stratosphere was 4500 fCi/m3, while in the upper troposphere, 7Be concentrations were generally less than 1000.
