Application of the Berthelot reaction to the determination of ammonium‐N in soil extracts and soil digests |
|
| Abstract: | Abstract The phenol‐hypochlorite‐ammonium reaction of Berthelot can be utilized in manual procedures for the analysis of NH4‐N in a variety of soils applications, including total N measurement in soils, particle size separates and soluble organic matter fractions, and in measuring NH4‐N in soil extracts. A simple, convenient, and versatile procedure is described. |
