Aquasol
Definition
A colloidal system consisting of a stable solution or suspension where the structural dispersion medium is water, and the dispersed phase consists of microscopic solid particles or hydrophilic macromolecules; also, in pedology, the term can generically refer to a soil type strongly influenced by the presence of groundwater or stagnant water. This compound plays a major role in biochemical processes, facilitating efficient nutrient transport.
