The aim of the present study was to assess the influence of two varieties of rhubarb (Glanskin�s Perpetual and De Moldova) and two densities, 10.000 and 13.300 pl/ha on the content of macro (K, Ca, P, Mg, Fe and S), micro�elements (Al, Si and Mn), organic acids (tartaric, oxalic, citric, malic and ascorbic) and total production. The content of oxalic acid in the four versions ranged from 2.3 mg/mL juice in the case of Glanskin�s perpetual cultivation, with the density of 13.300 pl/ha at 3.8 mg/mL in the case of the Moldova variety at the same density. The content of tartaric acid varied in wide limits from 1.75 mg/mL juice to 6.5 mg/mL juice. The content of macro-elements varied within wide limits, the report being: Fe ] K ] Mg ]S ] P ] Ca. The largest production was obtained at the variety De Moldova with density of 13.300 pl/ha.

The effects of the added EDTA and organic acids (oxalic acid, tartaric acid and acetic acid) on Cd desorption of Zhangshi Irrigation Area (ZIR)contaminated soil of Shenyang city was investigated by batch balance experiments, in which the concentrations of acids, pH and temperature were examined. The results showed that EDTA, oxalic acid, tartaric acid and acetic acid modified the desorption behaviors of Cd. And the desorption level was EDTA>tartaric acid >oxalic acid >acetic acid. Also, the desorption amount of Cd increased with the concentration ranges from 5 to 40mmol/L; the desorbed amount obviously reduced with elevating pH when the pH was below 6; the adsorption was facilitated and the desorption was weakened when the pH was above 6. In addition, the Cd desorption amount raised with the temperature increasing.

Seven kinds of natural organic acids were added to moderate artificial contaminated soil to investigate the effects of natural organic acids on growth of maize seedlings and phytoextraction of copper and lead by maize. The results show that the effects of organic acids on plant growth are different in Cu and Pb contaminated soil. The natural organic acids can change the dry matter distribution of the shoot and the root, oxalic acid and tartaric acid can increase the root biomass in different degrees. Oxalic acid and tartaric acid can significantly increase the concentrations and uptake of Cu and Pb in the shoots of maize, indicate that oxalic acid and tartaric acid are potential phytoextraction intensifiers in phytoremediation of Cu and Pb contaminated soil.

Organic acids are critical as secondary metabolites for plant adaption in a stressful situation. Oxalic acid, tartaric acid, and malic acid can improve plant tolerance under waterlogged conditions. Two prominent woody species (Taxodium distichum-Swamp cypress and Salix matsudana-Chinese willow) have been experiencing long-term winter submergence and summer drought in the Three Gorges Reservoir. The objectives of the present study were to explore the responses of the roots of two woody species during flooding as reflected by root tissue concentrations of organic acids. Potted sample plants were randomly divided into three treatment groups: control, moderate submergence, and deep submergence. The concentrations of oxalic acid, tartaric acid, and malic acid in the main root and lateral roots of the two species were determined at four stages. The results showed that T. distichum and S. matsudana adapted well to the water regimes of the reservoir, with a survival rate of 100% during the experiment period. After experiencing a cycle of submergence and emergence, the height and base diameter of the two species showed increasing trends. Changes in base diameter showed insignificant differences between submergence treatments, and only height was significant under deep submergence. The concentrations of three organic acids in the roots of two species were influenced by winter submergence. After emergence in spring, two species could adjust their organic acid metabolisms to the normal level. Among three organic acids, tartaric acid showed the most sensitive response to water submergence, which deserved more studies in the future. The exotic species, T. distichum, had a more stable metabolism of organic acids to winter flooding. However, the native species, S. matsudana, responded more actively to long-term winter flooding. Both species can be considered in vegetation restoration, but it needs more observations for planting around 165 m above sea level, where winter submergence is more than 200 days.

Abstract Objectives The natural fermentation broth of vegetables and fruits is produced by anaerobic fermentation of vegetables and fruits, so as to form a fermentation beverage with complex components. Some components in the fermentation broth can promote digestion and absorption, alleviate constipation and beautify the face. Fruit and vegetable fermentation can be added into baking products to make natural yeast bread with good flavor and long shelf life. The fermentation broth has broad market application prospects. The contents of organic acids may play an important role in the flavor and nutrition of the natural fermentation broth of vegetables and fruits, which are still under researching. Methods HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) was used to detect the contents of several kinds of organic acids, such as acetic acid, lactic acid, oxalic acid, citric acid, succinic acid, tartaric acid. Results The contents of acetic acid, lactic acid, oxalic acid, citric acid, succinic acid, tartaric acid in compound natural fermentation broth (grapefruit + apple + lemon) was 5.650 mg/mL, 0.171 mg/mL, 0.013 mg/mL, 0.213 mg/mL, 0.763 mg/mL, 0.628 mg/mL. Conclusions The contents of organic acids were significantly different among different natural fermentation liquors of vegetables and fruits due to different raw materials, formulations and fermentation time.

Abstract. The implementation of stringent emission regulations has resulted in the decline of anthropogenic pollutants including sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO). In contrast, ammonia (NH3) emissions are largely unregulated, with emissions projected to increase in the future. We present real-time aerosol and gas measurements from a field study conducted in an agricultural-intensive region in the southeastern U.S. during the fall of 2016 to investigate how NH3 affects particle acidity and SOA formation via the gas-particle partitioning of semi-volatile organic acids. Particle water and pH were determined using the ISORROPIA-II thermodynamic model and validated by comparing predicted inorganic HNO3-NO3− and NH3-NH4+ gas-particle partitioning ratios with measured values. Our results showed that despite the high NH3 concentrations (study average 8.1 ± 5.2 ppb), PM1 were highly acidic with pH values ranging from 0.9 to 3.8, and a study-averaged pH of 2.2 ± 0.6. PM1 pH varied by approximately 1.4 units diurnally. Formic and acetic acids were the most abundant gas-phase organic acids, and oxalate was the most abundant particle-phase water-soluble organic acid anion. Measured particle-phase water-soluble organic acids were on average 6 % of the total non-refractory PM1 organic aerosol mass. The measured molar fraction of oxalic acid in the particle phase (i.e., particle-phase oxalic acid molar concentration divided by the total oxalic acid molar concentration) ranged between 47 and 90 % for PM1 pH 1.2 to 3.4. The measured oxalic acid gas-particle partitioning ratios were in good agreement with their corresponding thermodynamic predictions, calculated based on oxalic acid’s physicochemical properties, ambient temperature, particle water and pH. In contrast, gas-particle partitioning of formic and acetic acids were not well predicted for reasons currently unknown. For this study, higher NH3 concentrations relative to what has been measured in the region in previous studies had minor effects on PM1 organic acids and their influence on the overall organic aerosol and PM1 mass concentrations.
