Abstract: | P type humic acids showing characteristic absorption maxima at 615, 575, and 450 nm have been found in various types of soils around the world (3, 5, 7,8). P type humic acid was fractionated into a brown fraction (Pb) and a green fraction (Pg) by column chromatography using cellulose powder (4) or Sephadex gel (3). The Pg fraction which has a strong absorption maxima at 615, 575, and 450 nm causes the characteristic absorption pattern of P type humic acid. |
