## Abstract The total nitrogen content of plant tissue may be determined by direct nesslerization of sulphuric acidβhydrogen peroxide digests with accuracy up to 5%. Similar application to soil extracts involves somewhat greater errors. In a spectrophotometric study of the Nessler colour, a filter
The following factors involved in the use of the Nessler reagent for the determination of nitrogen are discussed in a paper by Miller and Miller (1): (1) effect of time and completeness of digestion, (2) effect of addition of hydrogen peroxide and the optimum use thereof, (3) rate of addition of rea
