Article Abstract
The reduction chemistry of molecular oxygen underpins the energy metabolism of multicellular organisms, liberating free energy needed to catalyze a plethora of enzymatic reactions. Measuring the isotope signatures of (16)O and (18)O during O2 reduction can provide insights into both kinetic and equilibrium isotope effects. However, current methods to measure O2 isotope signatures are time-consuming and disruptive. This paper describes the application of membrane inlet mass spectrometry to determine the oxygen isotope discrimination of a range of O2-consuming reactions, providing a rapid and convenient method for determining these values. A survey of oxygenase and oxidase reactions provides new insights into previously uncharacterized amino acid oxidase enzymes. Liquid and gas phase measurements show the ease of assays using this approach for purified enzymes, biological extracts and intact tissues.

The iron(I) dinitrogen complex PhB(AdIm)FeN, which is supported by a very bulky 1-adamantyl-substituted tris(carbene)borate ligand, reacts with equimolar CO at low temperature to afford the high spin ( = 3/2) complex PhB(AdIm)Fe(CO). This monocarbonyl complex reacts with additional CO to afford the low spin ( = 1/2) dicarbonyl complex PhB(AdIm)Fe(CO). By contrast, the high spin iron(I) tris(pyrazolyl)borate complex TpFe(CO) does not react with additional CO.

The challenge to produce multicarbon (C) products in high current densities in the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CORR) has motivated intense research. However, the ability of solvated cations to tune and activate water for C production in the CORR has been overlooked. In this study, we report the incorporation of a covalently grown layer of functionalized phenyl groups on the Cu surface that leads to a 7-fold increase in ethylene production (to -530 mA cm) and a 6-fold increase in C products (to -760 mA cm).

Introduction: Peatlands store up to a third of global soil carbon, and in high latitudes their litter inputs are increasing and changing in composition under climate change. Although litter significantly influences peatland carbon and nutrient dynamics by changing the overall lability of peatland organic matter, the physicochemical mechanisms of this impact-and thus its full scope-remain poorly understood.
Methods: We applied multimodal metabolomics (UPLC-HRMS, H NMR) paired with C Stable Isotope-Assisted Metabolomics (SIAM) to track litter carbon and its potential priming effects on both existing soil organic matter and carbon gas emissions.

Background And Objective: Radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC) remains challenging to treat due to a lack of effective therapies. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combining anlotinib with iodine-125 (I) seed implantation in patients with RAIR-DTC.
Methods And Materials: We retrospectively compared three treatment groups in 52 patients with advanced RAIR-DTC: anlotinib monotherapy (Group A, = 14), I seed brachytherapy monotherapy (Group B, = 25), and combined therapy (Group C, = 13).
