Churina, Iuliia ; Doskočil, Leoš (referee) ; Enev, Vojtěch (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the physicochemical characterization of soil humic substances isolated from brown earth modal based on the international IHSS procedure. Humic substances are organic compounds occurring in soil and have a significant influence on soil processes and properties. The aim of this work is to obtain detailed information on the physical and chemical properties of humic substances such as mean molecular weight (Mr), spectral characteristics, elemental composition and thermal stability. Soil humic substances samples were characterized by thermal techniques such as thermogravimetric (TGA) and elemental analysis (EA). Different instrumental methods such as UV/Vis spectrometry, infrared spectrometry and fluorescence spectrometry were used to analyze the samples. The results of this work can contribute to a better understanding of soil processes and properties, which can lead to improved agricultural production and environmental protection.
