This study attempted to comprehend the interaction mechanisms between DNA and the common minerals in soil such as montmorillonite, kaolinite and goethite at various environmental conditions. The effects of MgCl2 concentrations (0, 1, 10 and 60 mM) and pH (3.0, 5.0, 7.0 and 9.0) on the adsorption of DNA on the examined minerals were investigated by the equilibrium adsorption and direct measurement of adsorption enthalpies. The adsorption isotherms fitted by the Langmuirian model revealed that the maximum capacities and affinities of DNA adsorption on minerals increased with MgCl2 concentrations and decrease of pH. No DNA was adsorbed on montmorillonite at pH 9.0. The values of DNA adsorption enthalpies (Delta H-ads) ranged from -0.3 to 4.9 kJ g(-1) at different systems. The Delta H-ads values decreased with increasing MgCl2 concentrations and decreasing pH. The adsorption of DNA on montmorillonite, kaolinite and goethite was an exothermic reaction (-0.3
