Apparent hysteresis existed in phenanthrene desorption from organo-mineral aggregates.

Tributyl tin is part of a larger group of chemicals known as organo-tins, which combine tin and hydrocarbons; the link with obesity was discovered only relatively recently.

The results show that the distribution of labile and moderately labile pool in organo-mineral complexes of different soils is related to the contents of nucleic acid-P and inositol-P.
