An automated technique has been developed for estimating NH4+ in Kjeldahl digests of crops, using the salicylate‐dichloroisocyanurate reaction in the presence of nitroprusside. The method gives reproducible results in close agreement with those from conventional distillation and titration, and there is a marked improvement in output.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
