Magnetotactic bacteria, known to produce magnetic nanocrystals with uniform shapes and
sizes at physiological conditions, serve as an inspiration and source of a number of …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are considered the model species for the controlled
biomineralization of magnetic Fe oxide (magnetite, Fe3O4) or Fe sulfide (greigite, Fe3S4) …

This paper presents a reformulation of the submarine alkaline hydrothermal theory for the
emergence of life in response to recent experimental findings. The theory views life, like …

Sedimentary iron sulfide minerals play a key role in maintaining the oxygenation of Earth's
atmosphere over geological timescales; they also record critical geochemical information …

Iron sulfur (Fe–S) phases have been implicated in the emergence of life on early Earth due
to their catalytic role in the synthesis of prebiotic molecules. Similarly, Fe–S phases are …

Pyrite, or iron disulfide, is the most common sulfide mineral on the Earth's surface and is
widespread through the geological record. Because sulfides are mainly produced by sulfate …

Zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) treated by reduced sulfur compounds (ie, sulfidated
nZVI, S-nZVI) have attracted increased attention as promising materials for environmental …

Transition metal sulfides have attracted much attraction in electrochemical water splitting
owing to their low cost and unlimited availability. The formation of heterostructures has been …

The formation of pyrite has been extensively studied because of its abundance in many
anoxic environments. Yet, there is no consensus on the underlying pathways and kinetics of …

Fe0 is a powerful chemical reductant with applications for remediation of chlorinated
solvents, including tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene. Its utilization efficiency at …
