Optimalization of experimental method for study on penetration of humic acids into leaves.

This bachelor’s thesis is focused on the study of penetration of humic substances trough the plant cuticle. The main objective of the thesis aimed at a literature search on foliar fertilization and transport of substances in the plant leaves. According to the literature search, experimental technique was suggested and tested in order to study penetration of humic substances through the leaf cuticle. The method consists of observation of diffusion transport of humic acids between two inert agarose gels separated by the plant cuticle. Cuticles were prepared by the means of three different isolation procedures
