Trace metals such as iron or zinc that are stored in deep-sea sediments are lost forever to phytoplankton on the ocean surface. This is what geochemists believed for a long time about the cycle of ...

Fungi play a key role in the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems due to their diverse capabilities and relevance in nutrient cycling. Fungal functionality is directly related to their wide life ...

Researchers investigated global particulate matter, revealing health risks from trace elements. As anyone with seasonal allergies knows, unseen airborne particles can really wreck a person's day. Like ...

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a rapid chemical analysis technology that has been well developed for trace element analyses in gases, liquids, and solids. It uses a high-power laser ...

Trace elements or metal elements are minerals found in trace levels in biological tissues. Some are confirmed to be nutritionally important, while the remaining are deemed non-essential. While trace ...
