About This Instrument

It is used to determine nitrogen in Soil, inorganic and organic fertilizer and Protein Content of plant samples. The method consists essentially of transforming all nitrogen in a weighed sample into ammonium sulfate by digestion with sulfuric acid, alkalizing the solution, and determining the resulting ammonia by distilling it into a measured volume of standard acid, the excess of which is determined by titration.
