DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.6b05325
Abstract: Estuaries are transitional habitats characterized by complex biogeochemical and ecological gradients that result in substantial variation in fish total mercury concentrations (THg). We leveraged these gradients and used carbon (δ13C), nitrogen (δ15N), and sulfur (δ34S)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.9b06119
Abstract: Maternal transfer is the predominant route of methylmercury (MeHg) exposure to offspring. We reviewed and synthesized published and unpublished data on maternal transfer of MeHg in birds. Using paired samples of females' blood (n=564) and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/2050-6120/ac6ab6
Abstract: Thienoguanosine (thG) is an isomorphic fluorescent guanosine (G) surrogate, which almost perfectly mimics the natural G in DNA duplexes and may therefore be used to sensitively investigate for example protein-induced local conformational changes. To fully… read more here.
