    Based on samples collected near Mexico, they found arsenic-breathing microbes and these included two genetic pathways that are able to gain energy by converting arsenic-based molecules. [6] According to Rocap, this discovery demonstrates "a whole new metabolism for the open ocean.” [ 7 ]

  3. Arsenic cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic_cycle

    The arsenic (As) cycle is the biogeochemical cycle of natural and anthropogenic exchanges of arsenic terms through the atmosphere, lithosphere, pedosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere. Although arsenic is naturally abundant in the Earth's crust, long-term exposure and high concentrations of arsenic can be detrimental to human health. [1] [2]

  4. Marsh test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsh_test

    Any arsenic present would appear as arsenic trioxide and then could be subjected to Metzger's test. The most common test (and used even today in water test kits) was discovered by Samuel Hahnemann. It would involve combining a sample fluid with hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) in the presence of hydrochloric acid (HCl).

    He discovered that planktonic algae regulate the oxidation state of arsenic in seawater and synthesize a variety of organoarsenic compounds. A secondary discovery of his work was that marine phytoplankton also manufactures the raw materials for the volatile sulfur compound dimethyl sulfide .

  7. Arsenic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic

    Arsenic is a common n-type dopant in semiconductor electronic devices. It is also a component of the III–V compound semiconductor gallium arsenide. Arsenic and its compounds, especially the trioxide, are used in the production of pesticides, treated wood products, herbicides, and insecticides. These applications are declining with the ...

  8. Arsenicin A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenicin_A

    The compound was characterized by computational and spectroscopic [2] [3] techniques and found to possess a cage-like structure similar to adamantane in which the four methanetriyl carbon bridgeheads are replaced by arsenic atoms and three of the six methylene bridges are replaced by oxygen atoms.
