Cross-linking of humic substances with organic bridging groups is thought to contribute to the humification of soil organic matter. Model cross-linked humic substances were prepared by cross-linking Amherst soil humic acid by a diepoxide and a polycarboxylic acid, applying procedures established for cross-linking of polymers and textile fabrics. Products of the cross-linking reactions were analyzed by FTIR and 13C CPMAS NMR. Physicochemical properties of the products were determined by solubility experiments and thermal analysis. The incorporation of the cross-linker into the matrix of the humic acid by covalent linkages was confirmed by both the disappearance of bands of the reactive functional groups of the cross-linker in the FTIR spectrum and the increase of signals related to the incorporation of the cross-linker into the matrix of the humic acid in the FTIR and 13C CPMAS NMR spectra. The formation of covalent ester and ether linkages by the cross-linking reaction was indicated. Water solubilities at pH 6.2 of the cross-linked samples as determined by UV/Vis spectrometry were reduced compared to controls. Fewer water molecule bridges were formed in the cross-linked samples, which was attributed to a lower number of available functional groups and increased distances between humic acid strands caused by the cross-linking molecules. Reduced reactivities of humic acid strands in the cross-linked samples further indicated successful cross-linking. The reactions investigated in this study can be regarded as models for reactions occurring in natural soils to test the significance of cross-linking reactions in the humification process of soil organic matter and the physico-chemical properties and ecological function of organic matter in geosolids. 相似文献

The experimental conditions allowing quantitative interpretation of liquid state 13C-NMR spectra of the humic acids, derived from the five Victorian brown coal lithotypes are described. The structure of the two classes of humic acids investigated for each lithotype vary significantly in their level of aromaticity, the level of polar functional groups and aliphatic chains attached to their polyaromatic skeletons. Variation is also observed in the degree of aromaticity and oxygen-containing functions of humic acids with lithotype. These data are interpreted in the light of paleobotanical evidence, which suggests that the lithotypes represent variations in depositional environment and input to the coal seam. 相似文献

The review summarises recent advances towards a greater comprehensive assessment of microbial diversity in aquatic environments using the fatty acid methyl esters and phospholipid fatty acids approaches. These methods are commonly used in microbial ecology because they do not require the culturing of micro-organisms, are quantitative and reproducible and provide valuable information regarding the structure of entire microbial communities. Because some fatty acids are associated with taxonomic and functional groups of micro-organisms, they allow particular groups of micro-organisms to be distinguished. The integration of fatty acid-based methods with stable isotopes, RNA and DNA analyses enhances our knowledge of the role of micro-organisms in global nutrient cycles, functional activity and phylogenetic lineages within microbial communities. Additionally, the analysis of fatty acid profiles enables the shifts in the microbial diversity in pristine and contaminated environments to be monitored. The main objective of this review is to present the use of lipid-based approaches for the characterisation of microbial communities in water columns, sediments and biomats. 相似文献

矿物材料对废水厌氧处理及厌氧污泥改性具有十分重要的作用,而微生物代谢产物是生物处理系统的重要组分,在提高污染物去除率和甲烷产量等方面也起到非常重要的作用。本研究对矿物材料石墨和厌氧微生物共存体系内溶解性微生物产物(soluble microbial product,SMP)和胞外聚合物(extracellular polymeric substances,EPS)进行了分析表征。结果表明,石墨对EPS和SMP的组成和含量影响显著,主要是由于石墨的吸附作用及其对石墨颗粒的环境毒性所致。红外光谱分析表明,添加石墨体系内SMP与EPS的基团种类并未发生明显改变,但含量有所改变。三维荧光分析结果显示,SMP的主要荧光类物质为色氨酸类似物和腐殖质(辅酶NADH),而EPS的主要荧光类物质为色氨酸类似物和腐殖酸,石墨能明显降低色氨酸类似物及腐殖酸类物质的产生。石墨会减弱微生物的相对疏水性,提高表面自由能,有利于微生物团聚体的形成。 相似文献

The system Sephadex LH 60/dimethylformamide/acetic acid was found to be useful for the determination of the molecular weights of humic substances. Fulvic and humic acids concentrated from natural waters, sediments and soil have number- and weight-average molecular weights less than 2000 and 4000, respectively. A theoretical model for the dependence of an experimental GPC curve on the relation between the measured property and the structure of heterogeneous polymers, is presented. The results from the examination of the molecular composition, obtained by using RI, UV, fluorescence and weight measurement as detection techniques, show that the apparent distributions of aromatic moities and fluorescent groups in the humic substances were similar to those of repeating structural subunits and end groups respectively, in synthetic polymers. 相似文献

The functional groups of brown coal lithotypes, their humic acids and kerogens were investigated by elemental analysis and quantitative infrared spectroscopy using absorption coefficients.An inverse relationship is reported between the concentrations of kerogen and humic acids for each lithotype and significant variation in the levels of humic acids with lithotype are attributed to changing higher plant input and depositional environments.The structural implications of observed trends in absorption coefficients and their usefulness as a rapid method of functional group analysis has been investigated. Using this infrared technique, kerogen structures as reflected in functional group analyses were found to exhibit a dependance on lithotype, although no significant variation in the functionality of the humic acid structures was observed. 相似文献

Extensive functional group analyses were performed on humic acids representative of eight increasing depth levels from a core drilled in the Mahakam delta (East Kalimantan, Indonesia). Oxygen amounts decrease observed during early diagenesis was related chiefly to loss of hydroxyl (lignol?) groups. Comparison between upper and deeper levels shows the following variations: hydroxyl group abundances go from 19 to 6% of humic oxygen. Identified functional groups amounts represent 47 to 32% of weight of moisture- and ash-free humic acids. No evidence of decarboxylation of humic material was detected. 相似文献

New evidence for covalent coupling of peptides to humic acids based on 2D NMR spectroscopy: A means for preservation 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Nitrogen immobilization in soils and sediments involving the preservation of peptides is an important yet not well-understood process. Several hypotheses have been proposed for the preservation of peptides in these systems; however, to date, there is no direct molecular-level evidence for any one of several hypotheses. In this study, a synthesized peptide with 15N-labeled amino acid residues was utilized to examine the mechanism by which humic substances from a peat might chemically interact with peptides to induce preservation. Two-dimensional 15N-1H HSQC NMR experiments were performed to evaluate the bonding and nonbonding interactions between 15N-labeled peptide and an Everglades peat humic acid. The observed changes in cross peaks provide the first direct spectroscopic evidence for what we believe to be covalent binding between these substances. Noncovalent interactions between the 15N-labeled peptides and humic acid molecules are also observed in the spectra. Quinone structures in humic acids are suggested to be the important reactive groups, based on reaction of the labeled peptide with a model quinone which shows similar nitrogen-proton correlated peak patterns as is observed in the HSQC NMR spectra of humic acids reacted with the peptide. The Michael reaction with quinone structures is proposed, and this type of reaction provides a mechanism that is consistent with previous observation for the chemistry of sedimentary nitrogen species. 相似文献

A review with 227 references of the title subject is presented. It is divided into two main sections, viz., nature and properties of humic matter, and water—metal—sediment interactions.The first section deals with the essential properties of organic matter which occurs naturally in drainage sediments and waters. Discussion of the basic molecular structure of humic and fulvic acids is followed by some details of the chemical nature of functional groups within these structures which are important in metal-ion adsorption and complexing reactions which these materials can undergo. Information is also presented for colloidal and polyelectrolyte properties, complexation properties, and finally a summary discussion of metal-ion—humic-acid, metal-ion—fulvic-acid stability constants for both single ligand and mixed ligand systems completes the section.The second section comprises discussions of some specific aspects of interactions between metals, sediments and waters, including metal and organic speciation studies; sorption interactions between organic matter, clays and humic acids; chemical reaction between humic acids, heavy-metal minerals, clays and other silicate minerals; metal-ion adsorption—desorption studies, oxidation—reduction reactions between metal ions and humic acids; effects of sulphide ion on some of the above interactions and finally a summary of some relevant field geochemical dispersion studies.This second section describes both laboratory and field studies for each aspect. 相似文献

Multi-method study of the characteristic chemical nature of aquatic humic substances isolated from the Han River,Korea 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
《Applied Geochemistry》2006,21(7):1226-1239
Natural organic matter (NOM) from the Han River, Korea was fractionated into humic and non-humic fractions by absorbing onto XAD-7HP, and these fractions were analyzed using UV-absorption, and for dissolved organic C (DOC). The humic fraction (i.e. humic substances; HS) was extracted and its characteristics were compared to commercial humic materials using various spectroscopic methods such as Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) and fluorescence spectroscopy. The humic fraction as organic C was 47.0% on the average, however, a rainfall event brought a higher humic fraction into Han River water. The molar ratios of H/C and O/C in the HS from Han River water (HRHS) were 1.40 and 0.76, respectively, and the ratio of aliphatic to aromatic protons in the HS (PAl/PAr ratio) was 5.8. Aromaticity and humification degree (i.e., degree of condensation) of HRHS were relatively lower than those from other humic materials, while the portion of oxygenated functional groups was relatively higher. FT-IR, 1H-NMR and fluorescence spectroscopy showed distinct differences between HRHS and the commercial humic materials. Commercial humic materials are not representative of HS extracted from Han River water. The fluorescence spectra, relatively simple measurements, were found to be most useful as fingerprints for humic materials from particular sources. 相似文献

High concentrations of arsenic and humic substances in groundwater from the southwestern coastal plain of Taiwan were well known for their probable relationships with black-foot disease. In order to realize the relationships between the concentrations of humic substances and arsenic in this area, 24 well water samples were analyzed. After filtered through 0.45 μm glass fiber membrane in the field, samples were kept in the dark at 4℃ and then separated into six fractions with varying range of molecular weight （〈0.5, 0.5-1, 1-5, 5-10, 10-50 and 〉50 k Da） by ultrafiltration apparatus （Molecular/Por Stirred Cell system） in the lab. Concentrations of humic substances were measured by fluorescence spectrometer （HITACHI F-2000, ex=370, em=445） and arsenic by FIAS-AA （Perkin Elmer AAnalyst 100, FIAS-400）. On average, only 6.2% of the total arsenic in water existed in the fraction of 〉0.5 k Da. and the others were complexed with humic substances （including humic acid and fulvic acid）. The results demonstrated a distinct positive correlation between the concentrations of humic substances and arsenic. 相似文献

Characterization of humic substances by advanced solid state NMR spectroscopy: Demonstration of a systematic approach 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Characterization of humic substances is challenging due to their structural complexity and heterogeneity. Solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is regarded as one of the best tools for elucidating structures of humic substances. The primary solid state NMR technique that has been used so far is the routine 13C cross polarization-magic angle spinning (CP-MAS) technique. Although this technique has markedly advanced our understanding of humic substances, the full potential of NMR for characterizing humic substances has yet to be realized. Recent technical developments and applications of advanced solid state NMR have revealed the promise to provide deeper insights into structures of humic substances. In this paper, we summarized and demonstrated the systematic solid state NMR protocol for characterization of humic substances using a humic acid as an example. This protocol included (1) identification of specific functional groups using spectral editing techniques, occasionally assisted by 1H13C two-dimensional heteronuclear correlation (2D HETCOR) NMR, (2) quantification of specific functional groups based on direct polarization-magic angle spinning (DP-MAS) and DP-MAS with recoupled dipolar dephasing, combined with spectral editing techniques, (3) determination of connectivities and proximities of specific functional groups by 1H13C 2D HETCOR or 2D HETCOR combined with spectral editing techniques, and (4) examination of domains and heterogeneities by 1H13C 2D HETCOR with 1H spin diffusion. We used a soil humic acid as an example to demonstrate how this protocol was applied to the characterization of humic substances step by step. Afterwards, based on typical 13C NMR spectra of humic substances we described how we could combine different NMR techniques to identify specific functional groups band by band from downfield to upfield. Finally, we briefly mentioned the potential new NMR techniques that could be developed to enrich the current systematic protocol. This systematic protocol is not only applicable to humic substances but also to other natural organic matter samples. 相似文献

The acid-base properties of 14 standard and reference materials from the International Humic Substances Society (IHSS) were investigated by potentiometric titration. Titrations were conducted in 0.1 M NaCl under a nitrogen atmosphere, averaging 30 min from start to finish. Concentrations of carboxyl groups and phenolic groups were estimated directly from titration curves. Titration data were also fit to a modified Henderson-Hasselbalch model for two classes of proton-binding sites to obtain “best fit” parameters that describe proton-binding curves for the samples. The model was chosen for its simplicity, its ease of implementation in computer spreadsheets, and its excellent ability to describe the shapes of the titration curves. The carboxyl contents of the IHSS samples are in the general order: terrestrial fulvic acids > aquatic fulvic acids > Suwannee River natural organic matter (NOM) > aquatic humic acids > terrestrial humic acids. Overall, fulvic acids and humic acids have similar phenolic contents; however, all of the aquatically derived samples have higher phenolic contents than the terrestrially derived samples. The acid-base properties of reference Suwannee River NOM are surprisingly similar to those of standard Suwannee River humic acid. Results from titrations in this study were compared with other published results from both direct and indirect titrations. Typically, carboxyl contents for the IHSS samples were in agreement with the results from both methods of titration. Phenolic contents for the IHSS samples were comparable to those determined by direct titrations, but were significantly less than estimates of phenolic content that were based on indirect titrations with Ba(OH)2 and Ca(OAc)2. The average phenolic-to-carboxylic ratio of the IHSS samples is approximately 1:4. Models that assume a 1:2 ratio of phenolic-to-carboxylic groups may overestimate the relative contribution of phenolic groups to the acid-base chemistry of humic substances. 相似文献

Complexes formed by the addition of vanadyl salts to a peat humic acid have been studied by EPR spectroscopy. The spectra show that the vanadium is in an environment with approximately axial symmetry. The g-values and 51V hyperfine coupling constants indicate that the vanadium remains in the vanadyl state and is complexed possibly either by oxygen donor groups or by mixed oxygennitrogen donor groups in the humic acid. Identical spectra were obtained when the vanadium was added to the humic acid as the metavanadate ion, thus showing that reduction of vanadium from oxidation state (V) to (IV) occurs. 相似文献

Covalent and non-covalent interaction of proteinaceous materials in soils and sediments has been suggested as an important mechanism for immobilizing nitrogen in numerous types of environments. In a previous study (Hsu P.-H., Hatcher, P.G., 2005. New evidence for covalent coupling of peptides to humic acids based on 2D NMR spectroscopy: A means for preservation. Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta 69, 4521–4533), we provided molecular evidence for covalent, as well as non-covalent, bonding between 15N-labeled peptides and humic acid molecules using the 2D HSQC (heteronuclear single quantum coherence) NMR technique. In this report, we examine the influence of aromaticity and aliphaticity of peptides and humic materials on these covalent and non-covalent interactions. We use 2D NMR techniques to evaluate bonding interactions of 15N labeled peptides, having different aromatic and aliphatic properties, with three humic acids that vary in degree of aromaticity. The peptide containing primarily aromatic amino acid residues is observed to form covalent and non-covalent bonds with mainly aromatic-rich humic acids. The peptide composed of aliphatic amino acid residues shows, on the other hand, only bonding interactions with aliphatic-rich humic acids. These observations provide the first direct molecular evidence that aliphatic functional groups are involved in bonding with proteinaceous materials. The process may play an important role in sequestration of proteinaceous materials in sedimentary systems such as marine systems where the humic materials are mainly aliphatic in nature. 相似文献

The aim of this work is to study the structural changes involved in humification processes. Total humic extracts (THE) obtained from five composted materials of diverse origin (solid wastes of wineries, solid mill olive wastes, domestic wastes, ovine manures plus straw, and a mixture of animal manures), and their corresponding initial raw fresh organic mixtures were studied using 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) using the cross-polarization magic angle spinning technique (CPMAS), 1H NMR, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and high pressure size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC). One group of three humic acids extracted from soils, and a second group consisting of two reference humic acids and two reference fulvic acids (1S104H, 1R103H, 1R101F and 1R107F) obtained from the International Humic Substances Society were also characterized using these techniques, in order to compare the features of reference humic and fulvic acids with those of composted materials. Likewise, the results were compared with those obtained in previous studies, in which UV–Visible and fluorescence spectroscopies were employed to characterize the humification degree of the molecular systems.The results obtained by 13C CPMAS NMR, 1H NMR and FTIR indicate that, in general, humification seems to be associated with an increase in the aromatic character of the systems, with the presence of phenol groups as principal substituents and a reduction in oxygen containing functional groups, principally carboxylic or carbonylic groups, as well as the development of molecular fractions with larger size. These results also support the suitability of UV–Visible and fluorescence spectroscopies in the assessment of the humification course of humic extracts in composting processes. 相似文献

The technique of titration calorimetry has been used to characterize the acidic functional groups of humic acid. Both the concentrations of acidic functional groups and the thermodynamic parameters (pKa, ΔHa, etc.) for ionization of these functional groups were determined. The calculated values confirm the generally accepted opinion that humic acid contains both carboxyl and phenolic hydroxyl groups. Furthermore, at least one-third of the phenolic hydroxyl groups are not ortho to carboxyl groups and thus cannot participate in chelation of metal ions via salicylate-like complexing sites. The nature of the remaining two-thirds of the phenolic hydroxyl groups is still unknown. 相似文献

Calorimetric and potentiometric titrations have been used to evaluate direct and indirect methods of analysis for the carboxyl content of aquatic humic substances. The effects of cation binding, base strength, and removal of humic reaction products on carboxyl content values have been examined. The results suggest that the most appropriate analytical method for determination of an operationally defined carboxyl content would utilize a weak base that does not contain a polyvalent cation in an indirect titration on a reaction mixture from which all humic reaction products have been removed prior to titration. Titration data have been analyzed in terms of a formation function (δnOH) and in terms of operationally defined ‘mass action quotients’ (). The dependence of on pH is more readily and realistically described if no artificial differentiation of carboxyl groups into two or more sub-groups is imposed upon the data. 相似文献

Determinations of reactive oxygen-containing functional groups were performed by usual chemical derivatization methods of four humic acids isolated from soils and deltaic sediments. Statistical tests and calculations based on elemental analysis demonstrated the validity and limits of these techniques and allowed us to identify from 60 to 71% of the total humic oxygen. Oxygen budgets of humic acids are discussed. 相似文献
