Microbialites—carbonate structures formed under the influence of microbial action —are the earliest macroscopic evidence of life. For three billion years, the microbial mat communities responsible for these structures fundamentally shaped the biogeochemical cycle of Earth. In photosynthetic microbial communities, light energy ultimately drives prim...
Dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) is a key process in global nitrogen cycling, supporting the energy conservation of diverse microbes. For a long time, DNRA has been thought to primarily depend on organic electron donors, and thus to be governed by carbon-to-nitrogen (C:N) ratios. However, recent studies suggest that inorganic elec...
Toxic metal pollution influences the lives of diverse aquatic organisms and humans who consume contaminated aquatic products. However, its potential impacts on aquatic organism health and, thus, ecological health, have been neglected in many regions. This research was carried out to contribute to filling that knowledge gap. Three freshwater fish sp...
The aquatic environment receives a wide variety of contaminants that interact with each other, influencing their mutual toxicity. Therefore, studies of mixtures are needed to fully understand their deleterious effects on aquatic organisms. In the present experiment, we aimed to assess the effects of Cd and Zn mixtures in common carp during a one-we...

Hi all,
I'm currently working on DNA-Stable Isotope Probing and I'm trying out a protocol for Isopycnic centrifugation for DNA fractionation. Most of the protocols that I'm consulting all used the vertical rotor for the ultracentrifugation. However, in our institute, we only have swinging-bucket or fixed angle rotor. So I wonder if I can use the other two rotors for the DNA fractionation?
Thank you so much for your help!
