Organic matter, compost, humus, humates, humic acid, and fulvic acid are all related to, and parts of, decaying plant materials. It’s food for soil life and a storehouse for minerals, energy and water. These organic materials are mediums for certain organisms to grow on. The biological/organic farming system is based on balanced minerals and lots of soil life in terms of diversity and volume. S...

The use of organic solvents in developing countries has been wide spread in the last century [1]. Organic solvents are used in different industrial processes and are sometimes considering important supplies in order to obtain more benefit in any type of manufacturer business, due to they can be reused [2]. Organic solvents are commonly used in the dry cleaning industry, because relatively stabl...

Organic material is commonly found associated with uranium ores in sandstone-type deposits. This review of the literature summarizes the classes and separations of naturally occurring organic material but the emphasis is on soluble organic species. The main class of materials of interest is humic substances which ars high-molecularweight complex molecules that are soluble in alkaline solution. ...

An eco-friendly "on-water" protocol for efficient catalyst-free synthesis of the Hantzsch dihydropyridines from aryl, heteroaryl, alkyl, and vinylogous aldehydes has been developed with minimum auxiliary substances, toxic reagents, organic solvents, and disposal problems.

The toxic effects of arsenicals are significantly modified by numerous biological and abiotic factors. The toxicity of arsenic in the environment is affected by temperature, pH, Eh, organic content, phosphate concentration, adsorption to solid matrices, the presence of other substances and toxicants, duration of exposure and the arsenic species present. In general, inorganic arsenicals are more...

An experiment was carried out to evaluate and compare the effects of organic and inorganic selenium (Se) sources on broiler male birds (Ross 308). Uniform broiler male chicks divided in to five groups with six replicates were fed with either normal feed (without supplemental Se, negative control), 0.25 ppm of inorganic Se, 0.5 ppm of inorganic Se, 0.25 ppm of inorganic Se + 0.25 ppm of organic ...

Few quantitative data are available on the organic constituents of the cerebrospinal fluid (1). Preliminary to studies on the biosynthetic origins and functional significance of the glycoproteins of cerebrospinal fluid it was desirable to develop analytical methods applicable to small individual samples of this fluid. The development of such methods is made difficult because of the relatively l...

The maintenance of specified residual chlorine within the distribution system is essential as a protective measure against the probable contamination. But the chlorine levels depend on the amounts of organic matter and bacterial content present in the water. Thus the concentration of these waterborne substances viz. chlorine, organic matter and bacterial content present in the water are related...
