Abstract
The phenol‐hypochlorite‐ammonium reaction of Berthelot can be utilized in manual procedures for the analysis of NH4‐N in a variety of soils applications, including total N measurement in soils, particle size separates and soluble organic matter fractions, and in measuring NH4‐N in soil extracts. A simple, convenient, and versatile procedure is described.Keywords
