The isolation of humic substances and alcohol-soluble organic matter from seawater

Abstract The practical details of a method for the recovery of humic substances and alcohol-soluble organic matter from large volumes of seawater are described. Low levels of contamination make it useful for chemical characterization studies of these fractions of the dissolved organic matter.
