Abstract

The samples of humic acids (HA) isolated from brown coal, both native and modified with hydrogen peroxide and n- butanol, were obtained and studied by means of elemental and technical analysis. The changes of structural parameters and the concentration of paramagnetic centres (PMC) of modified HA were revealed by means of 13C NMR, IR, EPR spectroscopy. The biological activity of native and modified HA was evaluated by means of phytotesting with the seeds of Iren wheat as an example. A trend to a decrease in the biological activity of HA with a decrease in PMC content was discovered. An increase in biological activity is connected with an increase in parameter F1 depicting the relations between hydrophilic and hydrophobic elements in HA structure.
