Two-stage fluid pathways generated by volume expansion reactions: insights from the replacement of pyrite by chalcopyrite.

ABSTRACT: Volume expansion reactions involved in mineral-fluid interactions are linked to a number of geological processes, including silicate weathering, retrograde metamorphism, and mineralization. However, the effect of volume expansion on replacement reactions remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that reactions associated with volume expansion during the replacement of pyrite by chalcopyrite involve two competing processes. The reaction is initially augmented because of the development of reaction-induced fractures in the pyrite. However, these fractures are subsequently filled by compacted products, which ultimately disrupts the contact and interaction between bulk fluids and the pristine pyrite surface. These competing processes indicate that replacement reactions are both augmented and inhibited by volume expansion reactions during pyrite replacement.

Quantifying Fenton reaction pathways driven by self-generated H2O2 on pyrite surfaces.

Project description:Oxidation of pyrite (FeS2) plays a significant role in the redox cycling of iron and sulfur on Earth and is the primary cause of acid mine drainage (AMD). It has been established that this process involves multi-step electron-transfer reactions between surface defects and adsorbed O2 and H2O, releasing sulfoxy species (e.g., S2O32-, SO42-) and ferrous iron (Fe2+) to the solution and also producing intermediate by-products, such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and other reactive oxygen species (ROS), however, our understanding of the kinetics of these transient species is still limited. We investigated the kinetics of H2O2 formation in aqueous suspensions of FeS2 microparticles by monitoring, in real time, the H2O2 and dissolved O2 concentration under oxic and anoxic conditions using amperometric microsensors. Additional spectroscopic and structural analyses were done to track the dependencies between the process of FeS2 dissolution and the degradation of H2O2 through the Fenton reaction. Based on our experimental results, we built a kinetic model which explains the observed trend of H2O2, showing that FeS2 dissolution can act as a natural Fenton reagent, influencing the oxidation of third-party species during the long term evolution of geochemical systems, even in oxygen-limited environments.

Giant pressure-induced volume collapse in the pyrite mineral MnS2.

Project description:Dramatic volume collapses under pressure are fundamental to geochemistry and of increasing importance to fields as diverse as hydrogen storage and high-temperature superconductivity. In transition metal materials, collapses are usually driven by so-called spin-state transitions, the interplay between the single-ion crystal field and the size of the magnetic moment. Here we show that the classical S = 5/2 mineral hauerite (MnS2) undergoes an unprecedented (?V ~ 22%) collapse driven by a conceptually different magnetic mechanism. Using synchrotron X-ray diffraction we show that cold compression induces the formation of a disordered intermediate. However, using an evolutionary algorithm we predict a new structure with edge-sharing chains. This is confirmed as the thermodynamic ground state using in situ laser heating. We show that magnetism is globally absent in the new phase, as low-spin quantum S = 1/2 moments are quenched by dimerization. Our results show how the emergence of metal-metal bonding can stabilize giant spin-lattice coupling in Earth's minerals.

Disruption of the endothelin A receptor in the nephron causes mild fluid volume expansion.

Project description:Endothelin, via endothelin A receptors (ETA), exerts multiple pathologic effects that contribute to disease pathogenesis throughout the body. ETA antagonists ameliorate many experimental diseases and have been extensively utilized in clinical trials. The utility of ETA blockers has been greatly limited, however, by fluid retention, sometimes leading to heart failure or death. To begin to examine this issue, the effect of genetic disruption of ETA in the nephron on blood pressure and salt handling was determined.Mice were generated with doxycycline-inducible nephron-specific ETA deletion using Pax8-rtTA and LC-1 transgenes on the background of homozygous loxP-flanked ETA alleles. Arterial pressure, Na metabolism and measures of body fluid volume status (hematocrit and impedance plethysmography) were assessed.Absence of nephron ETA did not alter arterial pressure whether mice were ingesting a normal or high Na diet. Nephron ETA disruption did not detectably affect 24?hr Na excretion or urine volume regardless of Na intake. However, mice with nephron ETA knockout that were fed a high Na diet had mild fluid retention as evidenced by an increase in body weight and a fall in hematocrit.Genetic deletion of nephron ETA causes very modest fluid retention that does not alter arterial pressure. Nephron ETA, under normal conditions, likely do not play a major role in regulation of Na excretion or systemic hemodynamics.

Negative thermal expansion and electronic structure variation of chalcopyrite type LiGaTe2.

Project description:The LiGaTe2 crystals up to 5 mm in size were grown by the modified Bridgman-Stockbarger technique and the cell parameter dependence on temperature in the range of 303-563 K was evaluated by the X-ray diffraction analysis. The thermal behavior of LiGaTe2 is evidently anisotropic and a negative thermal expansion is found along crystallographic direction c with coefficient -8.6 × 10-6. However, the normal thermal expansion in two a directions with coefficient 19.1 × 10-6 is dominant providing unit cell volume increase on heating. The atomic mechanism is proposed to describe this pronounced anisotropic expansion effect. The electronic structure of LiGaTe2 is measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and the band structure is obtained by DFT calculations. The pressure response from 0 to 5 GPa was calculated and a normal crystal compression is found. This work indicates that LiGaTe2 is promising as an IR NLO or window material for many practical applications because the thermal expansion coefficients of this telluride are not big. We believe that these results would be beneficial for the discovery and exploration of new IR optoelectronic polyfunctional metal tellurides.

Pathways for Neoarchean pyrite formation constrained by mass-independent sulfur isotopes.

Project description:It is generally thought that the sulfate reduction metabolism is ancient and would have been established well before the Neoarchean. It is puzzling, therefore, that the sulfur isotope record of the Neoarchean is characterized by a signal of atmospheric mass-independent chemistry rather than a strong overprint by sulfate reducers. Here, we present a study of the four sulfur isotopes obtained using secondary ion MS that seeks to reconcile a number of features seen in the Neoarchean sulfur isotope record. We suggest that Neoarchean ocean basins had two coexisting, significantly sized sulfur pools and that the pathways forming pyrite precursors played an important role in establishing how the isotopic characteristics of each of these pools was transferred to the sedimentary rock record. One of these pools is suggested to be a soluble (sulfate) pool, and the other pool (atmospherically derived elemental sulfur) is suggested to be largely insoluble and unreactive until it reacts with hydrogen sulfide. We suggest that the relative contributions of these pools to the formation of pyrite depend on both the accumulation of the insoluble pool and the rate of sulfide production in the pyrite-forming environments. We also suggest that the existence of a significant nonsulfate pool of reactive sulfur has masked isotopic evidence for the widespread activity of sulfate reducers in the rock record.

Sulfonamide-Trapping Reactions of Thermally Generated Benzynes.

Project description:Reactions of tethered, tertiary sulfonamides with thermally generated benzynes are reported. Typically, the N-S bonds in the substrates cleave, and saturated heterocycles [tetrahydroquinolines ( n = 2) and indolines ( n = 1)] are formed. The process is accompanied by either sulfonyl transfer or desulfonylation from a zwitterionic intermediate, with the favored pathway being largely dependent upon the size (5- vs 6-membered) of the N-containing ring in the zwitterion.

Silica nanoparticle aggregation in calcite replacement reactions.

Project description:Natural nanoparticles are fundamental building blocks of Earth's bio- and geosphere. Amorphous silica nanoparticles are ubiquitous in nature, but fundamental knowledge of their interaction mechanisms and role in mineral replacement reactions is limited. Here we show how silica nanoparticles replace Cretaceous calcite bivalve shells in a volume- and texture-preserving process. Electron tomography reveals that mineral replacement transfers calcite crystallographic orientations to twinned photonic crystals composed of face-centered cubic silica sphere stacks. During the face-specific replacement process, silica nanoparticles continuously nucleate, aggregate, and form a lattice of uniform spheres parallel to calcite low-energy facets. We explain the replacement process with a new model that unifies recently proposed, probably universal mechanisms of interface-coupled dissolution-precipitation and aggregation-based crystallization; both key mechanisms in geological processes and nanomaterials design and synthesis.

Delayed Infusion Reactions to Enzyme Replacement Therapies.

Project description:BACKGROUND:There are currently ten intravenous enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) products available for the treatment of eight different lysosomal diseases (LD) in the USA. Additional ERT products are in clinical trials. The most common ERT adverse events are infusion reactions (IR). While IR are often defined as hypersensitivity or anaphylactoid reactions occurring concurrently with (i.e., during) infusion administration (CIR), there exists the potential for delayed infusion reactions (DIR), which present after completion of infusion administration. HYPOTHESIS:Concurrent infusion reactions (CIR) are not the only infusion reactions associated with enzyme therapy. METHODS:This study evaluated the occurrence of infusion reactions in 46 patients with LD who had received ERT for a minimum of 2 years. Infusion reactions were evaluated according to symptoms, time of onset, and duration of reactions. The frequency of infusion reactions with each ERT product was compared to that reported in the FDA-approved product package insert. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS:In this study, DIR were observed and occurred as often as CIR in the study population, despite not being characterized or reported in most ERT product package inserts. Effective methods for managing DIR and CIR differed, thus emphasizing the importance of monitoring for both types of infusion reactions in order to optimize outcomes for patients using ERT.

Fluid volume kinetics of 20% albumin.

Project description:AimsA population kinetic model was developed for the body fluid shifts occurring when 20% albumin is given by intravenous infusion. The aim was to study whether its efficacy to expand the plasma volume is impaired after major surgery.MethodsAn intravenous infusion of 3 mL/kg 20% albumin over 30 minutes was given to 15 volunteers and to 15 patients on the 1st day after major open abdominal surgery. Blood samples and urine were collected during 5 hours. Mixed-effect modelling software was used to develop a fluid volume kinetic model, using blood haemoglobin and urine excretion the estimate body fluid shifts, to which individual-specific covariates were added in sequence.ResultsThe rise in plasma albumin expanded the plasma volume in excess of the infused volume by relocating noncirculating fluid (rate constant k21 ), but it also increased losses of fluid from the kinetic system (kb ). The balance between k21 and kb maintained the rise in plasma albumin and plasma volume at a virtual steady-state for almost 2 hours. The rate constant for urinary excretion (k10 ) was slightly reduced by the preceding surgery, by a marked rise in plasma albumin, and by a high preinfusion urinary concentration of creatinine. The arterial pressure, body weight, and plasma concentrations of C-reactive protein and shedding products of the endothelial glycocalyx layer (syndecan-1, heparan sulfate, and hyaluronic acid) did not serve as statistically significant covariates.ConclusionsThere were no clinically relevant differences in the kinetics of 20% albumin between postoperative patients and volunteers.

Lung Ultrasound Assisted Comparison of Volume Effects of Fluid Replacement Regimens in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Penile Hypospadias Repair: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Project description:BackgroundEffective perioperative fluid therapy is a great consideration.ObjectivesUsing lung ultrasound (LUS), this study evaluated the preference of the conventional and restrictive fluid replacement regimens for their volume impact in pediatric patients undergoing a relatively long procedure with limited volume loss (hypospadias repair).MethodsEighty pediatric patients scheduled for hypospadias repair surgery were enrolled for conventional (CG) or restrictive fluid management groups (RG). The CG obtained Ringer's lactate at the conventional calculated doses, while the RG obtained infusion of Ringer's lactate at a rate of 3 mL/kg/h. B-line numbers in the LUS, recovery score, urine output, blood pressure (BP), heart rate HR, and oxygen saturation (SpO2) were recorded.ResultsAs evidenced by the LUS, RG showed a higher incidence of normal lung morphology with a mean and SD of 1.3 ± 2.2 for B-line numbers, whereas, in CG, they were 3.1 ± 2.2 with a P-value < 0.001. Urine output was 3.2 ± 0.8 and 2.9 ± 0.7 for CG and RG, respectively, with a P-value equal to 0.07. HR, BP, and SpO2 differences between groups were statistically insignificant. The recovery score was higher in RG (5.8 ± 0.4) than in CG (5.1 ± 0.8) at the first postoperative 20 minutes, with a P-value < 0.001.ConclusionsIn lengthy procedures with limited volume loss, using a moderately restrictive regimen is preferred over the conventional intraoperative fluid regimen considering both respiratory dysfunctions and recovery score.
