Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.The composition of organic matter (OM) was explained by effects of OM–cation interactions using polygalacturonic acid (PGA) as model substance. These effects were analyzed by COO− absorption bands in mid‐FTIR spectra. The change in intensity and wavenumber ranges of COO− bands in FTIR was quantified.

Determination of Uronic Acids in Cellulosic Materials
Textile Research, 1940 Naturally-occurring cellulosic fibres appear to be a more or less intimate association of cellulose with other constituents, generally referred to as incrusting substances. A portion of these extraneous materials appears to be com posed of uronic acids, presumably contained in the pectic substance of the fibres.
