Carbon Cycle
Material flow in the carbon cycle is an important aspect of microbial growth. Varies types of CO2–fixation mechanisms are found in microorganisms.... -
Glomalin and Carbon Sequestration in Terrestrial Ecosystems
The fungi in Glomeromycota are mutualistic symbionts of plant roots and produce a special glycoprotein called “glomalin” on their spores and mycelium... -
Enteric and systemic postprandial lactate shuttle phases and dietary carbohydrate carbon flow in humans
Dietary glucose in excess is stored in the liver in the form of glycogen. As opposed to direct conversion of glucose into glycogen, the hypothesis of...
