Excerpt: ... to corn in the gross produce obtained will be much increased. It should be further added, too, as some qualification of the exact figures of the Table, that since the three seasons over which our average extends, include one at least which was unusually favourable to the production of corn, the result by even the 400 lbs. of ammonia-salts, as here recorded, will be rather better than would be obtained over a more extended period of time. There was, however, a still further increase of produce when more ammonia was employed; though, as already stated, the ratio of increase diminished the more rapidly the greater the excess of ammonia added in the manure. Upon the whole, then, the result strikingly stands out--that we obtained a considerably greater amount of produce by the use of much larger amounts of ammonia than those which Baron Liebig has pronounced to be excessive, and to the use of which he attributes the conclusion which he assumes to be so erroneous. It is further strikingly obvious, that there was a very general uniformity in the proportion of increase obtained for a given amount of ammonia supplied, whether 400, 200, or 100 lbs. of its salts were added to the soil. Hence it follows, that if there were a loss of nitrogen when 400 lbs. of ammonia-salts were used, there must have been very nearly a proportionate amount of loss when the minimum quantity was employed; and consequently that the loss observed when the 400 lbs. was used could not be due simply to the supply of more nitrogen than was necessary for a maximum of produce, as maintained by Baron Liebig. In fact, we have found the loss, and not made it ! Again, Baron Liebig says: -- " The number 5, for the amount of ammonia, and the quantity 1 bushel for the increased...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the founding fathers of organic chemistry and also a great teacher, the German scientist Justus von Liebig transformed scientific education, medical practice, and agriculture in Great Britain. William H. Brock's fresh interpretation of Liebig's stormy career shows how he moved chemistry into the sociopolitical marketplace, demonstrating its significance for society in food production, nutrition, and public health. Through his controversial ideas on artificial fertilizers and recycling, his theory of disease, and his stimulating suggestions concerning food and nutrition, he warned the world of the dangers of failing to recycle sewage or to replace soil nutrients. Liebig also played the role of an elder statesman of European science by commenting, via popular lectures and expansions of his readable Chemical Letters, on such issues as scientific methodology and materialism.
Download or read book Catalysts for Nitrogen Fixation written by Barry E. Smith and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological nitrogen fixation provides more than 50% of the total annual input of the essential element nitrogen to world agriculture. Thus, it is of immense agronomic importance and critical to food supplies, particularly in developing countries. This book, with chapters authored by internationally renowned experts, provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the fascinating history of the process - including the surprising discoveries of molybdenum-independent nitrogenases and superoxide-dependent nitrogenase; a review of Man's attempts to emulate the biological process - most successfully with the commercially dominant Haber-Bosch process; and the current state of the understanding art with respect to the enzymes - called nitrogenases - responsible for biological nitrogen fixation. The initial chapters use a historical approach to the biological and industrial processes, followed by an overview of assay methodologies. The next set of chapters focuses on the classical enzyme, the molybdenum nitrogenase, and details its biosynthesis, structure, composition, and mechanism of action as well as detailing both how variants of its two component proteins are constructed by recombinant DNA technology and how computational techniques are being applied. The sophisticated chemical modelling of the metal-containing clusters in the enzyme is reviewed next, followed by a description of the two molybdenum-independent nitrogenases - first, the vanadium-containing enzyme and then the iron-only nitrogenase - together with some thoughts as to why they exist! Then follows an up-to-date treatment of the clearly "non-classical" properties of the superoxide-dependent nitrogenase, which more closely resembles molybdenum-containing hydroxylases and related enzymes, like nitrate reductase, that it does the other nitrogenases. Each chapter contains an extensive list of references. This book is the self-contained first volume of a comprehensive seven-volume series. No other available work provides the up-to-date and in-depth coverage of this series and this volume. This book is intended to serve as an indispensable reference work for all scientists working in this area, including agriculture and the closely related metals-in-biology area; to assist students to enter this challenging area of research; and to provide science administrators easy access to vital relevant information.
