Description

This laboratory analyzes the physicochemical properties of soils to assess their nutritional status and provide fertilizer recommendations. It also evaluates soil carbon content and overall soil quality.

Equipment

  • Carbon and nitrogen (C/N) elemental analyzer — for determining total carbon and nitrogen content in soils and organic materials.
  • -Carbon fraction analyzer — for measuring total carbon, organic carbon, and inorganic carbon.
  • Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) system — for multielement analysis of macro- and micronutrients.
  • Microwave digestion systems — for sample preparation and element extraction.
  • Total organic carbon analyzers for liquid samples — for determining dissolved or soluble organic carbon.
Services
  • Analysis of soil physicochemical parameters
