The main drivers of methane emissions differ in the growing and flooded fallow seasons in Mediterranean rice fields
(Springer, 2021-01-09)
Purpose
To assess 1) the cumulative greenhouse gas emissions –GHG- and global warming potential (methane – CH4- and nitrous oxide) from rice fields in the growing and fallow seasons, and 2) the ...
Toxicity Screening of a Gambierdiscus australes Strain from the Western Mediterranean Sea and Identification of a Novel Maitotoxin Analogue
(MDPI, 2021-08-15)
Dinoflagellate species of the genera Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa are known to produce ciguatera poisoning-associated toxic compounds, such as ciguatoxins, or other toxins, such as maitotoxins. However, ...
Amplified plasmonic and microfluidic setup for DNA monitoring
(Springer Nature, 2021-09-07)
Plasmonic nanosensors for label-free detection of DNA require excellent sensing resolution, which is crucial when monitoring short DNA sequences, as these induce tiny peak shifts, compared to large ...
