Research experience

     More than fifteen years of work in the field of humic substances research. Main areas of interest – structure, reactivity and detoxifying ability of humics toward heavy metals and organic ecotoxicants. Particular outcome – development of the common strategy of numerical description of the structure of natural organic substances of variable composition and irregular structure on the example of humic substances. The novelty of the research: new technique for calculation of the corrected elemental composition of humic substances; new technique for determination of the functional groups with a use of 1H NMR spectroscopy and an approach to calculation of fragmental composition of HS basing on the H- and C-distribution; experimentally proven choice of polydextrans as molecular weight markers for SEC-determination of molecular weight distruibution of HS; the quantitative estimates of complexing, binding and detoxifying properties of a broad set of humic substances of different origin (about 100 samples) to heavy metals, PAHs and atrazine. Classification of humic substances and prognostic modelling of their properties.
