Humic Substances as a Versatile Intermediary
Humic substances are organic ubiquitous components arising in the process of chemical and microbiological oxidation, generally called humification, the second largest process of the carbon cycle. The beneficial properties of these various substances can be observed in many fields of life and health, whether it is the impact on the human organism, as ...

Physiological Effects of Five Different Marine Natural Organic Matters (NOMs) and Three Different Metals (Cu, Pb, Zn) on Early Life Stages of the Blue Mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) [PDF]
Metals are present in aquatic environments as a result of natural and anthropogenic inputs, and may induce toxicity to organisms. One of the main factors that influence this toxicity in fresh water is natural organic matter (NOM) but all NOMs are not the

Biological conversion of low-grade coal discard to a humic substance-enriched soil-like material
A mutualistic relationship between grasses, coal-degrading fungi, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi was proposed to account for the phyto-biodegradation of coal discard. In this study pot trial experiments were carried out to confirm transformation of the

Possible role of organic matter in radiocaesium adsorption in soils [PDF]
The aim of this review is to examine the hypothesis that organic matter decreases the adsorption of radiocaesium on clay minerals. The factors that determine radiocaesium mobility and bioavailability in soil are briefly outlined to show why a ...
