Biological properties of the Chilean native moss Sphagnum magellanicum.
An ethanol extract prepared from the gametophyte Chilean native moss Sphagnum magellanicum was dried out, weighed and dissolved in distilled water. This extract was then assayed for its antibacterial activity against the G(-) bacteria Azotobacter vinelandii, Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Vibrio cholerae,...
متن کاملStudies on chromium(III) removal from aqueous solutions by sorption on Sphagnum moss peat
Batch sorption experiments were performed for the removal of chromium(III) ions from aqueous solutions using Romanian Sphagnum moss peat (untreated and treated with NaCl solution) as sorbent. In order to establish the best conditions for the sorption of chromium(III), the influence of initial pH, contact time, peat dose and metal ion concentration was investigated. The Freundlich, Langmuir and ...
متن کاملCopper Adsorption by Sphagnum Peat Moss and Its Different Humic Fractions
The Cu(II) binding properties of Canadian Sphagnum peat moss, humic acid and humin extracted from the peat moss were investigated. Batch pH profile experiments indicated that the adsorption of Cu(II) is pH dependent. At pH 4.0 and 5.0 about 99% of the Cu(II) was bound by all three biomasses. Time-dependent experiments showed that the binding of Cu(II) is very rapid. The Cu(II) binding capacitie...
متن کاملAcidophilic methanotrophic communities from Sphagnum peat bogs.
Highly enriched methanotrophic communities (> 25 serial transfers) were obtained from acidic ombrotrophic peat bogs from four boreal forest sites. The enrichment strategy involved using media conditions that were associated with the highest rates of methane uptake by the original peat samples, namely, the use of diluted mineral medium of low buffering capacity, moderate incubation temperature (...
متن کاملMobility of Pb in Sphagnum-derived peat
One important assumption in applying 210Pb-dating is that atmospherically deposited 210Pb is immobilized in the peat or sediment column. This assumption has been challenged widely, but has never been evaluated experimentally. We evaluated Pb mobility and the chemical forms in which Pb is stabilized in peat profiles by adding either soluble or particulate Pb to intact peat cores that were mainta...
