Potential solution in sustainable agriculture: improving the pH and pH buffering capacity of gray soil Acrisol from Cu Chi, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam using biochar combined with bentonite

Sains Tanah: Journal of Soil Science and Agroclimatology, 2023
The acidification of agricultural soils should be avoided, and low pH soils should be corrected for better productivity. Soil improvement by applying biochar from agricultural byproducts combined with bentonite, a rich source in Vietnam, is a trend in ...

Evaluation of chemical amendments to control phosphorus losses from dairy slurry

, 2011
peer-reviewedLand application of dairy slurry can result in incidental losses of phosphorus (P) to runoff in addition to increased loss of P from soil as a result of a buildup in soil test P (STP). An agitator test was used to identify the most effective

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

Mobilisation of arsenic from bauxite residue (red mud) affected soils: Effect of pH and redox conditions [PDF]

, 2014
The tailings dam breach at the Ajka alumina plant, western Hungary in 2010 introduced ∼1 million m3 of red mud suspension into the surrounding area.

Karl Popper and the Mechanisms of Hydrogen Embrittlement

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Representation of the beginning of loss of ductility rather than embrittlement. Small concentrations of hydrogen in a diffusible form within iron are well‐established to harm the mechanical integrity of steels. There are theories that attempt to explain the pernicious role of hydrogen.

The microbial PLFA composition as affected by pH in an arable soil

, 2010
The influence of soil pH on the phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) composition of the microbial community was investigated along the Hoosfield acid strip, Rothamsted Research, UK - a uniform pH gradient between pH 8.3 and 4.5. The influence of soil pH on the

The Transformation of Agriculture in Brazil Through Development and Adoption of Zero Tillage Conservation Agriculture

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2014
The soil conservation movement in Brazil has been a major driving force in the continuing search for agricultural farming systems that are more sustainable than what we have today, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas.

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...

Comparisons of the effects of different drying methods on soil nitrogen fractions: Insights into emissions of reactive nitrogen gases (HONO and NO)

Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Letters, 2020
Reactive nitrogen (Nr) emission from soils, e.g., nitrous acid (HONO) and nitric oxide (NO), is a key process of the global nitrogen (N) cycle and has significant implications for atmospheric chemistry.
