Long-term grass mulching waste recycling and evaluation activation of dissolved organic carbon.

This study aimed to clarify that long-term leguminous grass mulching (crown vetch (CV) and white clover (WC)) and gramineous grass (orchardgrass (OG)) drive the distribution of soil aggregates and are associated with dissolved organic matter (DOM) components. Excitation emission spectroscopy and parallel factor analysis (EEM-PARAFAC) were used to evaluate the influence of different grass mulches among aggregates. The results indicated that legumes had a more significant impact on the distribution of aggregates and DOM content than gramineae grass mulching.

Pollution control in biochar-driven clean composting: Emphasize on heavy metal passivation and gaseous emissions mitigation.

Present study was focus on the pollution control aspect of gaseous mitigation and heavy metal passivation as well as their associated bacterial communities driven by apple tree branch biochar (BB) during sheep manure composting. Six treatment was performed with distinct concentration of BB from 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.

Pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of methcathinone in rabbits.

Methcathinone is one of the most commonly abused designer narcotics. The pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of methcathinone is not well understood. In this study, methcathinone was intravenously or intragastrically administered to rabbits in order to investigate the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of methcathinone.

Mulching practices alter soil microbial functional diversity and benefit to soil quality in orchards on the Loess Plateau.

To improve our understanding about the responses of microbial functional diversity to different mulching practices, this study used a metagenomic approach to reveal soil microbial functional specificity under four tillage regimes: conventional tillage (CT), organic mulch practices with ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) intercropping cover (RE) and cornstalk mulch (CS), and inorganic mulching with black ground fabric (BF) in a 7-year field experiment in an apple orchard of the Loess Plateau in China. Enzyme activity and soil physicochemical properties were measured.
