Total Nitrogen
Abstract
The determination of total nitrogen in soils and other complex heterogeneous materials containing several forms of nitrogen presents many difficulties, and with soils these difficulties are increased by the inadequacy of knowledge concerning the forms of nitrogen present and by the low nitrogen content of the material under analysis. Two methods have gained general acceptance for determination of total-nitrogen: the Kjeldahl method, which is essentially a wet-oxidation procedure, and the Dumas method, which is fundamentally a dry-oxidation technique. The standard Dumas method is a time-consuming and complicated procedure, and the comparatively rapid and simple Kjeldahl method has been used almost exclusively for determination of nitrogen in soils. The Kjeldahl procedures generally employed for determination of total-nitrogen involve two steps: digestion of the sample to convert the nitrogen to ammonium; determination of the ammonium in the digest.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
