The HI has been proposed to distinguish between the two major sources of the WEOM in soils: (i) the SOM, which releases WEOM rather humified and showing higher HI values and (ii) the fresh material deriving from the microbial cell lysis, characterised by lower HI (Zsolnay et al.
Coarse microaggregates with a diameter of 50-250 [micro]m are unstable under sonification and consist of variably humified organic residues (L[F.sub.ooc] = L[F.sub.ooc1] + L[F.sub.ooc2]) and organo-clay complexes (Clay).
The humification process is implemented in suspended soils with evident absence of mineral compounds or mineral fine earth, which indicates that humification in conditions of pure organic substrates can result in formation of deep humified organic matter that is represented by humic acids with an essential aromatic fraction content.
These proteins can be degraded during composting processes and humified into amino acids and sugars.

The use of composts as fertilizers has many advantages over the direct application of sewage sludge and livestock effluents to the soil, since composts are stabilized, have humified organic matter, are free from pathogenic organisms and provide nutrients, including P, to crops (Fuentes et al., 2006; Stutter, 2015).

This difference is more noted for treatment with sandy soil S2 (Maiz Bachir), this is explained by a low content in humified organic matter in soils converts into humus thanks to living microorganisms called humificaters and by absence of loamy colloids.
Human cardiomyoblast cells (H9C2) were grown in DMEM medium, supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated bovine serum (Gibco) and lx penicillin-streptomycin (Gibco) at 37[degrees]C in a humified chamber with 5% C[O.sub.2] supply.
