  • Humin As an External Electron Mediator for Microbial Pentachlorophenol Dechlorination: Exploration of Redox Active Structures Influenced by Isolation Methods

In this study, the effect of isolation methods on EEM functionality and the chemical/electrochemical structures of HM were examined based on the correlation between dechlorination rates in the anaerobic HM-dependent pentachlorophenol (PCP)-dechlorinating consortium and the chemical/electrochemical structures of HM. A lack of PCP dechlorination activity suggested no EEM function in the HM samples prepared as a soluble fraction in dimethyl sulfoxide and sulfuric acid (which did not contain any electric capacitance). Other HM samples exhibited EEM functionality as shown by the dechlorination activity ranging from 0.55 to 3.48 (µmol Cl−)L−1d−1. The comparison of dechlorination activity with chemical structural characteristics suggested that HM with EEM functionalities had predominantly aliphatic and carbohydrate carbons with the partial structures C=O, O=C–N, and O=C–O. EEM functionality positively correlated with the proportion of O=C–N and O=C–O, suggesting an association between peptidoglycan structure and EEM functionality.

Brønsted acids promote the depolymerization of polysaccharides (such as starch and cellulose) into glucose, while Lewis acids catalyze the conversion of glucose to 5- hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Designing stable Brønsted-Lewis acid-containing bifunctional heterogeneous catalysts is crucial for the efficient catalytic conversion of polysaccharides to HMF. In this study, a series of Brønsted -Lewis acid bifunctional catalysts (SnxPW, X 0.10–0.75) were investigated for the conversion of cassava starch to Edited by: HMF.

The properties of HSs are discussed in terms of microbial utilization, degradation, and transformation. The data on biologically active individual compounds found in HSs are summarized. Bacteria of the phylum Proteobacteria and fungi of the phyla Basidiomycota and Ascomycota were found to be the main HS degraders, while Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Firmicutes were found to be the predominant phyla in humic-reducing microorganisms (HRMs). Some promising aspects of interactions between microorganisms and HSs are discussed as a feasible basis for nature-like biotechnologies, including the production of enzymes capable of catalyzing the oxidative binding of organic pollutants to HSs, while electron shuttling through the utilization of HSs by HRMs as electron shuttles may be used for the enhancement of organic pollutant biodegradation or lowering bioavailability of some metals.

  • Summary. on the ORIGIN of the HUMIN FORMED by the ACID
    HUMIN FORMED BY ACID HYDROLYSIS OF PROTEINS. 2477 On concentrating the filtrate from this compound on a steam bath, a second crop of crystals was obtained, which was purified by repeated crystallization from hot water and finally identified as cyanuric acid. Yield, 0.7563 g. The following analytical data were obtained: 0.1035 g. of anhydrous substance required 0.0326 g. of sodium hydroxide for neutralization (thymolphthalein), and yielded 0.03375 g. of nitrogen. The molecular weight was found to be 127. The molecular weight calculated for cyanuric acid is 129. Calc. for C3H~N303:32.60. Found: 32.63% N. 0.03318 g. of anhydrous substance yielded 0.03405 g. of CO, and 0.00736 g. of H20 (micro-combustion). Calc. for C3H~N3O3:27.90, 2.34. Found: 27.98% C;2.48% H. 0.1020 g. of the copper ammonium salt gave 0.0~~55g. of CuO. Calc. for Cu(CsH2NaO&.zNHS: 17.96. Found: 17.G6% Cu. These data establish the identity of this compound as cyanuric acid. Summary. I. The so-called “tetracarbonimid” prepared by Scholtz by oxidizing uric acid with hydrogen peroxide in alkaline solution is in fact cyanuric acid. 2. The nitrogenous compound isolated from a number of soils and be- lieved at first to be “tetracarbonimid” has been shown to be cyanuric acid. 3. Cyanuric acid has been isolated from the following soils: (I) 12 samples of sandy soils taken from different locations in Florida, (2) Nor- folk sandy loam from Virginia, (3) lawn soil from the grounds of the Department of Agriculture, (4) Elkton silt loam from Maryland, (5) Scottsburg silt loam from Indiana, (6) Caribou loam from Maine, and (7) a Susquehanna fine sandy loam from Texas.
