BSI | 2022 | 32 |
This document specifies three different methods (Methods A, B and C) for the determination of sulfur present in fertilizer extracts in the form of sulfates. Method A specifies the gravimetric method. Method B specifies the method using inductively coupled plasma optical spectrometry (ICP-OES). Method C specifies the method using ion chromatography (IC).
