This European Standard specifies a method forThe determination of nitrogen in soil improvers andgrowing media.The Kjeldahl method determines ammonium-N, nitrate-N, nitrite-N and organic Ncontent of soil improvers and growing media. Nitrogen in N-N-linkages, N-O-linkages and someheterocyclics (especially pyridine) is only partially determined. [6], [7], [8]The method is not applicable to liming materials and preformed materials such as mineral wool slabsand foam slabs.NOTE The requirements of the standard may differ fromThe national legal requirements forThe declaration ofthe products concerned
