چکیده
This contribution takes into focus elements as scenes of thought in order to contest our colonial, anthropocentric and extractivist mo-dernity: fires burning fossil fuels, waves the open sea, shores landscape islands, clouds sky beyond. We sug-gest that these motifs bear possibility examine problems present well develop other, differing new rela-tionalities.

Bioelements; the Chemical Elements of Living Matter
Among the 87 known elements less than one-half (namely 34) have been found to enter into living matter. Of these only 17 seem to be essential to life, and of these 17 not more than 4 elements form from 97 to 99 per cent of the living organism. In order to illustrate the importance of the different elements Fig. 1 and Tables I and II have been prepared, showing that some elements occur invariabl...
متن کاملPrimordial heavy elements in composite dark matter models
A widely accepted viewpoint is to consider candidates for cosmological dark matter as neutral and weakly interacting particles, as well as to consider only light elements in the pregalactic chemical composition. It is shown that stable charged leptons and quarks can exist and, hidden in elusive atoms, play the role of dark matter. The inevitable consequence of realistic scenarios with such comp...
متن کاملHealth effects of airborne particulate matter trace elements.
The effects of airborne particulate matter (PM) trace elements on health are widely concerned nowadays. Many achievements have been made while many unknowns exist. This article reports the recent research progresses, describes the effects of exposure to PM trace elements on health epidemiological evidence, toxicology findings, and raises some questions for future studies.
متن کاملTrace Elements Speciation of Submicron Particulate Matter (PM1) Collected in the Surroundings of Power Plants
This study reports the concentrations of PM1 trace elements (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb and Se) content in highly mobile (F1), mobile (F2), less mobile (F3) and not mobile (F4) fractions in samples that were collected in the surroundings of power plants in southern Poland. It also reports source identification by enrichment factors (EF) and a principal component analysis (PCA). There is...
متن کاملTrasposable Elements: P Elements
In 1938 Marcus Rhodes provided the first genetic description of an unstable mutation, an allele of a gene required for the production of pigment in maize. This instability resulted in a variegated phenotype. Variegation describes irregular patterns of pigmentation and reflects changes in the expression of genes that control pigment production. Rhodes defined two genes required for this instabil...
