Analyses of the sorption of five polysaccharide cleaving soil enzymes by Na-homoionic clay minerals revealed a dependency on the cation exchange capacity of the clays: montmorillonite displayed the highest sorbing capacity, followed by palygorskite and kaolinite. Variation of the experimental conditions using cellulase and montmorillonite showed a maximum sorption at pH 4.8 and temperatures between 25°C and 45°C. Urea had no effect on the sorption, whereas humic acids and acetylation of enzymes lead to a decrease. No sorption was observed in the presence of bivalent cations. A discussion of possible binding mechanisms lead to the conclusion that interactions can be ascribed to van der Waals forces rather than to ionic reactions. It is assumed that the enzymes penetrate into the interlayers of montmorillonite, but not of palygorskite and kaolinite. 相似文献

The mineralogical composition of clays (< 2μm) in representative profiles of all soil types of Israel was investigated. The soils were classified according to their clay mineral assemblages into three groups. I. Montmorillonitic soils. Montmorillonite is the dominant mineral and exceeds 65 per cent of the total minerals found; each of the other minerals comprises less than 15 per cent. 2. Montmorillonitic-kaolinitic soils. The soil clay fractions contain 50-60 per cent montmorillonite and 15-25 per cent kaolinite, generally adding up to more than 75 per cent of the clay fraction. 3. Montmorillonitic-calcitic soils. The clays contain more than 10 per cent calcite. Montmorillonite is the dominant clay mineral (except for one soil type, mountain rendzina, where calcite is dominant). The first and second assemblages are typical of the soils of the Mediterranean zone, whereas the soils of the desert zone are characterized by the third assemblage. The origin of montmorillonite, kaolinite, and illite, the three main clay minerals, was found to be detritic, as was the origin of palygorskite which was mainly found in the calcite rich soils of the desert zone. The cation exchange capacity of montmorillonite seems to be higher under higher precipitation. Montmorillonite content and cation exchange capacity of the clays were found to be highly correlated. The carbonate content of the clay fraction and the amount of carbonate in the soil were also highly correlated. 相似文献

Adsorption and desorption of salmon sperm DNA on four different colloidal fractions from Brown Soil and clay minerals were studied. The adsorption isotherms of DNA on the examined soil colloids and minerals conformed to the Langmuir equation. The amount of DNA adsorbed followed the order: montmorillonite?fine inorganic clay>fine organic clay>kaolinite>coarse inorganic clay>coarse organic clay. A marked decrease in the adsorption of DNA on organic clays and montmorillonite was observed with the increase of pH from 2.0 to 5.0. Negligible DNA was adsorbed by organic clays above pH 5.0. As for inorganic clays and kaolinite, a slow decrease in DNA adsorption was found with increasing pH from 2.0 to 9.0. The results implied that electrostatic interactions played a more important role in DNA adsorption on organic clays and montmorillonite. Magnesium ion was more efficient than sodium ion in promoting DNA adsorption on soil colloids and minerals. DNA molecules on soil colloids and minerals were desorbed by sequential washing with 10 mM Tris, 100 mM NaCl and 100 mM phosphate at pH 7.0. A percentage of 53.7-64.4% of adsorbed DNA on organic clays and montmorillonite was released, while only 10.7-15.2% of DNA on inorganic clays and kaolinite was desorbed by Tris and NaCl. The percent desorption of DNA from inorganic clays, organic clays, montmorillonite and kaolinite by phosphate was 39.7-42.2, 23.6-28.8, 29.7 and 11.4%, respectively. Data from this work indicated that fine clays dominate the amount of DNA adsorption and coarse clays play a more important role in the binding affinity of DNA in soil. Organic matter may not favor DNA adsorption in permanent-charge soil. The information obtained is of fundamental significance for the understanding of the ultimate fate of extracellular DNA in soil. 相似文献

Dispersion and migration of fine particles in two palygorskite‐containing soils of the Jordan Valley
Migration of different mineral particles within columns of soil‐sand mixtures containing 10 or 20 mass % of soil was investigated by establishing differences in the mineral suite between the ”︁bulk clay” and the ”︁mobile fine material” fractions. The ”︁bulk clay” fractions of all soils contained smectite, palygorskite, kaolinite, quartz, feldspar, and calcite. The soils were saturated with sodium by leaching with NaCl solution, and then leached with distilled water. Clay dispersion and particle migration occurred in the columns. Values of SAR (sodium adsorption ratio) of the effluent decreased with time due to carbonate dissolution. At a certain SAR value, the clays apparently formed aggregates, and as a consequence particle migration stopped in the column. In addition to clay‐sized particles (< 2 μm), very‐fine‐silt‐sized particles (2— 5 μm) were able to migrate in the soil‐sand mixtures, too, and to some extent fine‐silt‐sized particles (5—10 μm) as well. Average size of mobile particles decreases with increase of soil content in the soil‐sand mixtures. The mineralogical composition of the ”︁mobile fine material” changed during the experiment. At the beginning of the experiment, the ”︁mobile fine material” was enriched in the non‐phyllosilicates (especially in calcite, and in some cases in quartz, feldspar and dolomite) and contained low concentrations of phyllosilicates (smectite, palygorskite and kaolinite). At the end of the experiment, the proportion of non‐phyllosilicates decreased, and as a consequence, the proportion of phyllosilicates increased. Among the non‐phyllosilicates, calcite was the most mobile mineral. Among the phyllosilicates, palygorskite was preferentially mobilized in topsoil horizons. In subsoil horizons, on the other hand, kaolinite was preferentially mobilized. This difference was explained by the different nature of carbonates in the topsoil and subsoil horizons. Palygorskite is preferentially occluded within the soil carbonates of lacustrine origin over smectite and kaolinite. These carbonates are present mainly in the subsoil horizons. As a consequence, the presence of these carbonates in the subsoil horizons decreases the migration of mainly palygorskite. 相似文献

Zinc solubility in clay and soil suspensions was controlled by chemisorption at pH 4.5 – 7.0. The solubility in clay mineral suspensions was in the order palygorskite < montmorillonite « kaolinite and reflected the high affinity of zinc to palygorskite and the high CEC of montmorillonite. The solubility in soil suspensions was in the order Haplustoll < Torrifluvents and reflected the effect of high CEC and organic matter content of the first. The slopes of the pH-pZn curves, calculated zinc potential and sequential desorption data suggested that Zn++ ? Zn(OH)2 aqueous controlled the solubility of zinc in soil and clay mineral suspensions at pH 7.5 – 9.0. The slopes of the pH–pZn curves of two soils were, however, modified by the possible peptization of organic matter and Zn(OH)2. 相似文献

It is well established that the presence of clay in an enzyme-substrate system may reduce the activity of enzymes (1-3,5,6,8,11-14). This inhibition by the clay would be principally caused by the adsorption of enzyme and/or substrate on the clay particle. In the previous papers (1–3), the activity of some enzymes was found to be inhibited in various degrees by clays. The enzyme appears to be adsorbed on the clay particle in various ways according to the nature of adsorbate as well as adsorbent. This suggests that the enzyme is adsorbed by the clay so as not to combine with the substrate, or that the adsorbed enzyme molecule has a configuration different from that of a free enzyme molecule, reducing the activity of the enzyme. 相似文献

Experiments were conducted to study the influences of synthetic bayerite, non-crystalline aluminum oxide (N-AlOH), goethite, non-crystalline iron oxide (N-FeOH) and kaolinite on the adsorption, activity, kinetics and thermal stability of invertase. Adsorption of invertase on iron, aluminum oxides fitted Langmuir equation. The amount of invertase held on the minerals followed the sequence kaolinite > goethite > N-AlOH > bayerite > N-FeOH. No correlation was found between enzyme adsorption and the specific surface area of minerals examined. The differences in the surface structure of minerals and the arrangement of enzymatic molecules on mineral surfaces led to the different capacities of minerals for enzyme adsorption. The adsorption of invertase on bayerite, N-AlOH, goethite, N-FeOH and kaolinite was differently affected by pH. The order for the activity of invertase adsorbed on minerals was N-FeOH > N-AlOH > bayerite > reak goethite > kaolinite. The inhibition effect of minerals on enzyme activity was kaolinite > crystalline oxides > non-crystalline oxides. The pH optimum of iron oxide- and aluminum oxide-invertase complexes was similar to that of free enzyme (pH 4.0), whereas the pH optimum of kaolinite-invertase complex was one pH unit higher than that of free enzyme. The affinity to substrate and the maximum reaction velocity as well as the thermal stability of combined invertase were lower than those of the free enzyme. 相似文献

When API-9 kaolinite and Willalooka illite clays were mixed in various proportions, the pore-size distributions obtained using nitrogen sorption and mercury injection techniques were found to be characteristic of neither of the components but showed a progressive reduction in the pore size as the concentration of illite was increased. The plate separation of the mixtures showed a marked decrease with initial added illite, approaching that of the illite when the mixture contained approximately 40 per cent illite. This is indicative of a homogeneous mixture in which the fine illite particles fill in the pores bounded by the relatively coarse kaolinite particles. The relationship between particle dimensions (derived from crystallographic parameters and specific surface area) and pore size of single clays and clay mixtures is consistent with a model in which slit-shaped pores result from the parallel interleaving of clay crystals for the single clays. Some deviations occur for the mixtures. 相似文献

Genetically modified crops, which produce pesticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis, release the toxins into soils through root exudates and upon decomposition of crop residues. Although the phenomena of gene transfer and emergence of resistance have been well documented, the fate of these toxins in soil has not yet been clearly elucidated. The aim of this study was to elucidate the adsorption and the desorbability of the Cry1Aa Bt insecticidal protein in contact with two sodium-saturated clays: montmorillonite and kaolinite. Because the toxin is released into soil in small quantities, it was assumed that it will be in a monomeric state in solution until it oligomerized on cell membranes. The originality of this study was to focus on the monomeric form of the protein. Specific sample conditions were required to avoid polymerisation. A pH above 6.5 and an ionic strength of at least 150 mM (NaCl) were necessary to keep the protein in solution and in a monomeric state. The adsorption isotherms obtained were of the L-type (low affinity) for both clays and fitted the Langmuir equation. The adsorption maximum of the toxin, calculated by the Langmuir nonlinear regression, decreased with increasing pH from 6.5, which was close to the isoelectric point, to 9. At pH 6.5, the calculated adsorption was 1.7 g g−1 on montmorillonite and 0.04 g g−1 on kaolinite. Desorbability measurements showed that a small fraction of toxin could be desorbed by water (up to 14%) and more by alkaline pH buffers (36 ± 7%), indicating that it was not tightly bound. Numerous surfactants were evaluated and the toxin was found to be easily desorbed from both clays when using zwitterionic and nonionic surfactants such as CHAPS, Triton-X-100, and Tween 20. This finding has important implications for the optimization of detection methods for Bt toxin in soil. 相似文献

Pedogenic carbonates in arid and semi-arid regions of the world have a great significance as palaeoecological and palaeoclimatological indicators and form a major pool in the carbon cycle. We analysed the ultra-microfabric and the stable isotope composition of C and O in pedogenic carbonates in colluvial soils derived from limestone in an arid region of central Iran. Our objective was to determine the conditions for the formation of soft pedogenic carbonate nodules and their co-existence with palygorskite in the palaeo-argillic horizon. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the calcite aggregates were matted with palygorskite. Ultra-microtome cuts, examined using transmission electron microscopy, provided more detailed information about the fundamental particle association of secondary carbonates and palygorskite. Although less abundant, other silicate clays were detected in both the acid-insoluble clay fractions and in ultra-cuts, mostly in fine clay size, suggesting the engulfing of palygorskite by growing calcite or illuviation of palygorskite during or after formation of the calcite. Coatings of illuvial clays on calcite crystals support the hypothesis that palygorskite was trapped by pedogenic carbonate when the climate was wetter than it is today to form an argillic horizon. However, electron microscopic evidence of the occurrence of fibres on the immediate pedogenic carbonate particle surfaces suggests the in situ formation of palygorskite. The δ13C and δ18O values of pedogenic carbonates suggest that these carbonates were formed in an environment with more available moisture and more C4 plants than now. 相似文献

Limited information is available on the distribution and origin of palygorskite in soils developed on Tertiary sediments as the major soil parent materials in central Iran and other Middle Eastern countries. The objectives of this study were to determine the distribution and origin of palygorskite in soils developed on Tertiary sediments, and to identify the major soil properties that influence palygorskite distribution in the soils studied. Sixteen soil profiles developed on Paleocene, Eocene, Oligocene, Oligocene-Miocene, Miocene and Pliocene sediments were studied by X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscope, and scanning electron microscopy. Physicochemical characteristics of the soils and sediments including particle size distribution, pH, electrical conductivity, organic carbon, gypsum, carbonates, and soluble Si, Ca and Mg were determined. The principal component analysis was used to establish the relationships between palygorskite and the physicochemical characteristics of the soils studied. Results showed that clay fraction of all the soils in the study area was dominated by palygorskite. The highest amount of palygorskite was found in horizons where simultaneous accumulation of both carbonates and gypsum occurred. Limited amount of palygorskite was found in salic and calcic horizons. Palygorskite seemed to be of eolian origin in the surface horizon of all the soils. Using principal component analysis, the soluble Mg/Ca ratio, pH, soluble Si and gypsum contents were identified as the most important factors affecting the distribution and genesis of palygorskite in the soils studied. Results might suggest the neoformation of palygorskite by precipitation from solutions in which evaporation fluxes were very high. However, palygorskite in soils developed on Tertiary sediments in central Iran seems to be of both inherited and pedogenic origins. 相似文献

Many industrial products and functional foods can be obtained from cheap and renewable raw agricultural materials. For example, starch can be converted to bioethanol as biofuel to reduce the current demand for petroleum or fossil fuel energy. On the other hand, starch can also be converted to useful functional ingredients, such as high fructose and high maltose syrups, wine, glucose, and trehalose. The conversion process involves fermentation by microorganisms and use of biocatalysts such as hydrolases of the amylase superfamily. Amylases catalyze the process of liquefaction and saccharification of starch. It is possible to perform complete hydrolysis of starch by using the fusion product of both linear and debranching thermostable enzymes. This will result in saving energy otherwise needed for cooling before the next enzyme can act on the substrate, if a sequential process is utilized. Recombinant enzyme technology, protein engineering, and enzyme immobilization are powerful tools available to enhance the activity of enzymes, lower the cost of enzyme through large scale production in a heterologous host, increase their thermostability, improve pH stability, enhance their productivity, and hence making it competitive with the chemical processes involved in starch hydrolysis and conversions. This review emphasizes the potential of using biocatalysis for the production of useful industrial products and functional foods from cheap agricultural produce and transgenic plants. Rice was selected as a typical example to illustrate many applications of biocatalysis in converting low-value agricultural produce to high-value commercial food and industrial products. The greatest advantages of using enzymes for food processing and for industrial production of biobased products are their environmental friendliness and consumer acceptance as being a natural process. 相似文献

The adsorption at pH's 4, 6 and 8 of adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine and uracil on clays (montmorillonite, illite and kaolinite), Fe- and Al-oxides (goethite, hematite and gibbsite), a soil, and on a laboratory-prepared fulvic acid-montmorillonite complex was investigated. Portions of the clays and soil were saturated with H+, Fe3+ and Ca2+.Quantitatively, the extent of adsorption of nucleic acid bases by the clays was proportional to their exchange capacities, but the nature of the dominant cation had only minor effects. By contrast, the adsorption was strongly affected by pH, tending to decrease with increase in pH. Adsorption on goethite and gibbsite was lower than that on clays, while adsorption of nucleic acid bases on soils was slightly lower than that on oxides. The fulvic acid-montmorillonite complex adsorbed substantial, although smaller amounts of purines and pyrimidines, than did montmorillonite alone. The main adsorption mechanism at pH 4 appeared to be cation exchange whereas at pH 8 complex formation between the nucleic acid bases and cations on inorganic surfaces seemed to occur.The results of this and earlier work show that both inorganic and organic soil constituents adsorb nucleic acid bases. Which adsorption reaction predominates will depend on the clay and organic matter content and on the pH. 相似文献

Chitinase is adsorbed on kaolinite below the isoelectric point of the enzyme, pH 6.8. Maximum adsorption is reached below pH 4.6. The amount of chitinase adsorbed to kaolinite depends on the concentration and on the ratio of enzyme to kaolinite. Adsorption results in reduction of chitinase activity. the extent of which depends on the amount of kaolinite present, on pH, and on the length of exposure time. Upon sorption of chitinase on kaolinite the optimal pH for activity is increased from pH 4.7 to 5.7. 相似文献

The link between buffer capacity and the ability of clays to retain Pb in interactions between Pb contaminant leachate and the clays, has been studied, using a natural clay from Quebec and laboratory-prepared clays (kaolinite, illite, and smectite). The retention of Pb in the clay suspensions as they received increasing amounts of acid was investigated, and the results examined in terms of the buffer capacity of the clays. As the clays receive increasing amounts of acid (e.g. akin to addition of acid leachate), high amounts of Pb can be retained if the buffer capacity prevents the pH from dropping to values where precipitation mechanisms are not operative. The high carbonate content in the illite gave it a higher buffer capacity than the smectite and natural clay, and permitted it to retain high amounts of Ph. High Pb uptake by the clays can affect the buffer capacity and the Pb retention capacity. 相似文献

The stability and activity of phytases in the soil environment may be affected by their sorption on soil particle surfaces and by substrate availability with important consequences for P cycling and nutrient bioavailability. This work evaluated the interaction of phytases with goethite, haematite, kaolinite, montmorillonite and two oxisol clays and investigated how this interaction is affected when myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6) was sorbed on the mineral surfaces. phyA histidine acid phosphatases of fungal origin were used and their ability to release orthophosphate from the InsP6-saturated minerals was evaluated.The phytases showed a high affinity for the mineral surfaces, with a loss of enzyme activity generally being observed over 24 h (up to 95% of the initially added activity). The loss of phytase activity was dependent on the type of mineral, with kaolinite and montmorillonite showing the greatest effect. Retention of enzyme activity was higher with the two oxisol clays, suggesting that the heterogeneous nature of clay surfaces and the presence of endogenous organic matter may limit the inhibition caused by interaction with minerals.In the presence of mineral surfaces saturated with InsP6, the partitioning of enzyme activity between the solution and the solid phase was shifted more towards the solution phase, presumably due to the mineral surfaces being occupied by the substrate. However, phytases were not able to release any orthophosphate directly from InsP6-saturated goethite and haematite, and hydrolysed InsP6 that was desorbed from haematite. Conversely, in the case of kaolinite and of the oxisol clays, where desorption was limited, phytases appeared to be able to hydrolyse a small fraction of the InsP6 adsorbed on the surfaces. These findings suggest that the bioavailability of P from inositol phosphates is governed to a large extent by the mineral composition of soil and by competitive effects for sorption on reactive surfaces among inositol phosphates and phytases. 相似文献

Sorghum bran has potential to serve as a low‐cost feedstock for production of fuel ethanol. Sorghum bran from a decortication process (10%) was used for this study. The approximate chemical composition of sorghum bran was 30% starch, 18% hemicellulose, 11% cellulose, 11% protein, 10% crude fat, and 3% ash. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of selected pretreatment methods such as hot water, starch degradation, dilute acid hydrolysis, and combination of those methods on enzymatic hydrolysis of sorghum bran. Methods for pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of sorghum bran involved hot water treatment (10% solid, w/v) at 130°C for 20 min, acid hydrolysis (H2SO4), starch degradation, and enzymatic hydrolysis (60 hr, 50°C, 0.9%, v/v) with commercial cellulase and hemicellulose enzymes. Total sugar yield by using enzymatic hydrolysis alone was 9%, obtained from 60 hr of enzyme hydrolysis. Hot water treatment facilitated and increased access of the enzymes to hemicellulose and cellulose, improving total sugar yield up to 34%. Using a combination of starch degradation, optimum hot water treatment, and optimum enzymatic hydrolysis resulted in maximum total sugar yield of up to 75%. 相似文献

The amount of Hg sorbed by kaolinite and illite, in the absence of ligands, changes little with pH; with montmorillonite, Hg uptake decreases with increasing pH. An overall decrease in the amounts sorbed by these clays occurs in solutions which contain ligands such as cyanide (2:1); acetate (5:1); and nitrilotriacetate (6:5). [Values in parentheses are mole ratio of ligand: Hg.] In the presence of chloride (2:1), the order for the uptake of Hg by the three clays is illite > montmorillonite > kaolin. The addition of thiourea (2:1) results in total precipitation of mercury at pH > 4; in the presence of sulfate or phosphate (> 1:1) Hg is lost from solution by precipitation/sorption at pH 4 but the amount decreases to near zero at pH > 8. Solution processes (i.e. complex formation, precipitation) appear to have a dominating influence on mercury distribution. 相似文献

The adsorption of three humic acid (HA) preparations by clays—montmorillonite (Wyoming, USA) and palygorskite (Kolomenskoe district, Moscow oblast)—has been studied. The HA preparations were isolated from samples of the humus-accumulative horizons of a leached chernozem (Voronezh) and a chestnut soil (Volgograd), and a commercial preparation of sodium humate (Aldrich) was also used. The solid-state 13C NMR spectroscopy and IR spectroscopy revealed the selective adsorption of structural HA fragments (alkyls, O-alkyls (carbohydrates), and acetal groups) on these minerals. As a result, the aromaticity of the organic matter (OM) in the organic-mineral complexes (OMCs) and the degree of its humification have been found to be lower compared to the original HA preparations. The fractionation of HAs is controlled by the properties of the mineral surfaces. The predominant enrichment of OMCs with alkyls has been observed for montmorillonite, as well as an enrichment with O-alkyls (carbohydrates) for palygorskite. A decrease in the C : N ratio has been noted in the elemental composition of the OM in complexes, which reflected its more aromatic nature and (or) predominant sorption of N-containing structural components of HA molecules. The adsorption of HA preparations by montmorillonite predominantly occurs on the external surface of mineral particles, and the interaction of nonpolar alkyl groups of HAs with this mineral belongs to weak (van der Waals, hydrophobic) interactions. The adsorption of HA preparations by palygorskite is at least partly of chemical nature: Si-OH groups of minerals are involved in the adsorption process. The formation of strong bonds between the OM and palygorskite explains the long-term (over 300 million years) retention of fossil fulvate-type OM in its complex with palygorskite, which we revealed previously. 相似文献
