Changes in Soil Humin Macromolecular Structure Resulting from Long-Term Catch Cropping [PDF]
MoleculesThe aim of this study was to assess the effect of long-term catch crop application on the structural properties of humin, which is considered the most recalcitrant fraction of soil organic matter. Soil samples from a 30-year field experiment on triticale

Promotion of Nitrogen Fixation of Diverse Heterotrophs by Solid-Phase Humin [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Although biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) proceeds under mild conditions compared to the energy-intensive Haber–Bosch process, the slow kinetics of BNF necessitate the promotion of BNF activity in its practical application.

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture, 2022 Background Organic materials carbon is mainly sequestrated in humin. However, the carbon (C) stability of humin with organic materials amendments in different types of soils is mainly affected by organic materials or soil types as well as the enzymatic ...
