Influences of lithium on soil properties and enzyme activities

Chemosphere, 2023
Lithium is an emerging environmental contaminant under the current sustainable energy strategy, but little is known about its contamination characteristic in soil. In this study, soil properties and enzyme activities in soils treated with 10-1280 mg kg-1 lithium were measured.

Soil Enzyme Activities as Biological Indicators of Soil Health

Reviews on Environmental Health, 2003
Soil health can be defined as the continued capacity of a specific kind of soil to function as a vital living system, within natural or managed ecosystem boundaries, to sustain plant and animal productivity, to maintain or enhance the quality of air and water environments, and to support human health and habitation. Because of the conflicting pressures

Enzyme activities in manured soils

Biological Wastes, 1988
Abstract The effect of manures processed anaerobically (maize stalks and cow dung fermented for varying periods during biogas generation) and aerobically (compost and farmyard manure) on the activities of dehydrogenase and nitrogenase in clay loam and sandy soils was studied.

Laccase activity in soils: Considerations for the measurement of enzyme activity

Chemosphere, 2012
Laccases (benzenediol: oxygen oxidoreductases, EC 1.10.3.2) are copper-containing enzymes that catalyze the oxidative conversion of a variety of chemicals, such as mono-, oligo-, and polyphenols and aromatic amines. Laccases have been proposed to participate in the transformation of organic matter and xenobiotics as well as microbial interactions ...
