2016, What Lies Ahead?

As we always do at the beginning of every year, we would like to share with you our perspectives for the newyear ahead. Overall, our impression is that this analysis contains mixed feelings. On one hand, the JBCS most important figures remain safely constant: our manuscript processing time remains as low as ever, around 3 months, on average, between submission and on-line publication; the number of submissions has slightly increased since last year and we are close to a healthy submission level of one thousand manuscripts per year, majority of which from authors residing outside Brazil; our rejection rate remains around 65%, and only our impact factor has not raised yet, as much as we would like.

Equilibrium and Out-Of-Equilibrium Investigation of Proton Exchange and CuII and ZnII Complexation on Fungal Mycelium (Trametes hirsuta)

Vicente R. Almeida; Bruno Szpoganicz; Lei Chou; Kitty Baert; Annick Hubin; Steeve Bonneville

How to cite this article

Fungal mycelium is a fundamental component of complex ecological networks with several symbiotic and dissipative properties on terrestrial biogeochemical matrix. The vast presence of mycelium is responsible for the control of chemical potential (e.g. pE and pH) of aqueous phase on soils, contributing to its response (buffering) capacity and the time controlling of physical-chemical conditions, as shown for the model of complex system S. Details are presented in the Article Equilibrium and Out-Of-Equilibrium Investigation of Proton Exchange and CuII and ZnII Complexation on Fungal Mycelium (Trametes hirsuta) by Vicente R. Almeida, Bruno Szpoganicz, Lei Chou, KittyBaert, Annick Hubin and Steeve Bonneville on page 15.
