Nitrogen‐Total

Bremner, J. M.·1996·SSSA Book Series

Abstract

The determination of total nitrogen (N) in soils and other complex heterogeneous materials containing several forms of N presents many difficulties. A.W. J., Dyck and R. R. McKibbin analyzed 26 organic soils by Dumas and Kjeldahl methods and found that with every sample tested, the Dumas method gave a considerably higher N value. The Kjeldahl procedures generally employed for determination of total N involves two steps: digestion of the sample to convert organic N to NH4 -N and determination of NH4-N in the digest. The acid consumption value for the organic fraction of soils is much higher than the corresponding values for the inorganic soil constituents, and acid consumption during Kjeldahl digestion of organic soils can exceed 6 mUg of soil. Although several methods have been proposed for direct determination of NH4 in Kjeldahl digests, this determination is usually performed by estimation of the NH3 liberated by distillation of the digest with strong alkali.

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.
