I studied adsorption of the adenine triad on mercury-bound German humic acid. This project was similar to previous research done in the lab using uracil solutions and published in Journal of Physical Chemistry. The results showed that the humic acid has binding sites that specifically bind adenine and its derivatives and these binding sites affect other sites on the molecule.
