Characterization of the Spectral Accuracy of an Orbitrap Mass Analyzer Using Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry
Analytical Chemistry, 90(3), 1897–1906.
MeSH headings : Caffeine / analysis; Carbon Isotopes / analysis; Nitrogen Isotopes / analysis; Oligopeptides / analysis; Spectrometry, Mass, Electrospray Ionization / methods; Spectrometry, Mass, Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption-Ionization / methods; Sulfur Isotopes / analysis
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that at optimum absolute ions abundances the Orbitrap can be used to accurately count carbons, nitrogens, and sulfurs in samples with varying masses and absolute monoisotopic ion abundances required for high SA were empirically determined by using the expected and experimental isotopic distributions to calculate the Pearson chi-square test.

Filtration via Conventional Glass Fiber Filters in 15N2 Tracer Assays Fails to Capture All Nitrogen-Fixing Prokaryotes
Frontiers in Marine Science, 5.
author keywords: oceanic nitrogen fixation; diazotrophs; cyanobacteria; glass fiber filter; bias; filtration
TL;DR:
Using Illumina sequencing of nitrogenase (nifH) gene amplicons, it is shown that diazotroph communities can markedly differ between bulk water and filtrates from GF/F and Advantec filtrations, suggesting that different d Diazotrophs can pass through the filter types.

Endocrine disruptors and the developing immune system
Current Opinion in Toxicology, 10, 31–36.
TL;DR:
The role of endocrine disruption in DIT is considered and endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) with known DIT effects are highlighted, of special importance are microglia, the resident immune cells of the central nervous system that are highly influenced by endogenous endocrine signals during development and are therefore sensitive to effects from exposure to EDCs.

TL;DR:
It is critical to determine whether epigenetic alterations are conserved across tissues in such a way that easily sampled surrogate tissues could be used to assess the impact of environmental exposure on diseaserelevant but inaccessible target tissues.

Quorum sensing and iron regulate a two-for-one siderophore gene cluster in Vibrio harveyi
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 115(29), 7581–7586.
author keywords: siderophores; quorum sensing; iron; Vibrio harveyi; high-resolution mass spectrometry
MeSH headings : Enterobactin / biosynthesis; Enterobactin / genetics; Iron / metabolism; Multigene Family / physiology; Quorum Sensing / physiology; Siderophores / biosynthesis; Siderophores / genetics; Vibrio / genetics; Vibrio / metabolism
TL;DR:
It is reported that Vibrio harveyi uses a “two-for-one,” QS- and Fe-repressed gene cluster to produce cell-associated siderophores at low cell density and accumulate soluble siderphores at high cell density, and that QS repression helps prevent the accumulation of siderophile concentrations in excess of cellular uptake capacities.

Disparities in Distribution of Particulate Matter Emission Sources by Race and Poverty Status
American Journal of Public Health, 108(4), 480–485.
Contributors: I. Mikati*, A. Benson *, T. Luben *, J. Sacks* & J. Richmond-Bryant*
MeSH headings : Black or African American / statistics & numerical data; Health Status Disparities; Humans; Inhalation Exposure / statistics & numerical data; Particulate Matter / administration & dosage; Particulate Matter / adverse effects; Poverty / statistics & numerical data; Racial Groups / statistics & numerical data; Socioeconomic Factors; United States; White People / statistics & numerical data
TL;DR:
Disparities in burden from PM-emitting facilities exist at multiple geographic scales, and Blacks are more pronounced than are disparities on the basis of poverty status, suggesting strictly socioeconomic considerations may be insufficient to reduce PM burdens equitably across populations.

Factors associated with NO2 and NOX concentration gradients near a highway
Atmospheric Environment, 174, 214–226.
Contributors: J. Richmond-Bryant* , M. Snyder*, R. Owen* & S. Kimbrough*
author keywords: Near-road; NO2; Oxides of nitrogen; Nitrogen dioxide; Dispersion
TL;DR:
Variability in near-road concentrations is influenced by local meteorology and ambient O3 concentration, and wind direction parallel to the highway was related to an increased magnitude of both dCNO2 /dx and dC NOX /dx, likely shrinking the zone of elevated concentrations occurring near roads.

MeSH headings : Air Pollutants / adverse effects; Air Pollution; Animals; Cardiovascular Diseases / etiology; Environmental Exposure; Humans; Particulate Matter
TL;DR:
Overall, the evidence for multipollutant effects was often heterogeneous, and the limited number of studies inhibited making a conclusion about the nature of the relationship between pollutant combinations and cardiovascular disease.
