Abstract

The samples of native and hydrogen peroxide–modified humic acids (HAs) separated from brown coals of the Tisul’skoe deposit in the Kansk-Achinsk Basin were obtained. The HA samples were characterized by instrumental methods: elemental and technical analysis and EPR spectroscopy. The modification of HAs affected the structural-group composition and decreased the concentration of paramagnetic centers (PMCs). The biological activity of native and modified humic acids was evaluated by phytotesting with the use of Iren varietal wheat seeds as an example. The highest biological activity was manifested at an HA concentration of 0.005%. A tendency toward a decrease in the biological activity with a decrease in the concentration of PMCs was revealed.
