Earth-abundant elements a sustainable solution for electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate

AS Fajardo, P Westerhoff, CM Sanchez-Sanchez… - Applied Catalysis B …, 2021 - Elsevier
Platinum group elements (PGEs) are widely-used electrocatalysts. However, the low
abundance of PGEs in the earth's crust and high environmental impacts to be acquired result in …

Trait‐based tests of coexistence mechanisms

PB Adler, A Fajardo, AR Kleinhesselink… - Ecology letters, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Recent functional trait studies have shown that trait differences may favour certain species (environmental
filtering) while simultaneously preventing competitive exclusion (niche …

Functional role of bacterial multidrug efflux pumps in microbial natural ecosystems

…, A Hernandez, L Garmendia, A Fajardo… - FEMS microbiology …, 2009 - academic.oup.com
Multidrug efflux pumps have emerged as relevant elements in the intrinsic and acquired
antibiotic resistance of bacterial pathogens. In contrast with other antibiotic resistance genes …

Antibiotics as signals that trigger specific bacterial responses

A Fajardo, JL Martínez - Current opinion in microbiology, 2008 - Elsevier
The ecological and evolutionary roles of antibiotics have been usually inferred from their
therapeutical activity. Since those compounds inhibit bacterial growth, it was thought that they …

Grazing and ecosystem service delivery in global drylands

…, J Durán, B Erdenetsetseg, CI Espinosa, A Fajardo… - Science, 2022 - science.org
Grazing represents the most extensive use of land worldwide. Yet its impacts on ecosystem
services remain uncertain because pervasive interactions between grazing pressure, climate…

Mammalian lipid droplets are innate immune hubs integrating cell metabolism and host defense

M Bosch, M Sánchez-Álvarez, A Fajardo… - Science, 2020 - science.org
INTRODUCTION In all eukaryotic cells, lipid droplets (LDs) store and supply essential lipids
to produce signaling molecules, membrane building blocks, and metabolic energy. The LD …

Beyond description: the active and effective way to infer processes from spatial patterns

EJB McIntire, A Fajardo - Ecology, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
The ecological processes that create spatial patterns have been examined by direct measurement
and through measurement of patterns resulting from experimental manipulations. But …

Highly reactive Cu-Pt bimetallic 3D-electrocatalyst for selective nitrate reduction to ammonia

GA Cerrón-Calle, AS Fajardo… - Applied Catalysis B …, 2022 - Elsevier
Identifying electrocatalytic materials that generate fossil-free ammonia through N-recycling
from polluted water sources is required. Bimetallic Cu-Pt foam electrodes were synthesized to …

Lipid extraction from the microalga Phaeodactylum tricornutum

AR Fajardo, LE Cerdán, AR Medina… - European Journal of …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
Ethanol was used for the extraction and purification of lipids from the biomass of the microalga
Phaeodactylum tricornutum. This microalga is an oil‐rich substrate with a high proportion …

Plant height and hydraulic vulnerability to drought and cold

…, A Echeverría, CI Espinosa, A Fajardo… - Proceedings of the …, 2018 - National Acad Sciences
Understanding how plants survive drought and cold is increasingly important as plants
worldwide experience dieback with drought in moist places and grow taller with warming in cold …
