Abstract
Aluminum (Al) activity was determined in nutrient solutions and in acid soil solutions. Aluminum concentrations in the solutions ranged from 7.4 μM to 370.3 μM giving values of ionic strength of nutrient solutions higher than the values of acid soil solutions. The increase of ionic strength values was due to the increase of Al concentrations. The values of Al activities of 20 uM in the acid soil solutions were noticed when Al concentrations were lower than 70 μM. On the other hand, these values of Al activities in nutrient solutions were noticed only when the Al concentrations were higher than 70 μM. This study demonstrates why it is important to use higher Al concentrations in nutrient solutions to obtain Al toxic effects.
