Measure Total Nitrogen Without an Autoclave

Measure Total Nitrogen Without an Autoclave

The alkaline persulfate Total Nitrogen method is here — and NECi enzyme reagents work with it. No autoclave required; just an InstantPot and our enzyme reagents for green, accessible TN analysis.

Total Nitrogen by Alkaline Persulfate is Here

The new method drives all nitrogen compounds to nitrate. And NECi's enzyme reagents are compatible with the new TN chemistry. Digest your samples and analyze your nitrate using our enzyme reagents. No autoclave or heating block required for the digestion step — just use an InstantPot™ or similar kitchen gadget. Green analytical chemistry for TN, in your lab — or in your kitchen, for education and Citizen Science users.
