Organo-mineral fertilizers - Determination of the fraction of complexed micronutrients
This document specifies a general method for the determination of the micronutrients complexed by complexing agents in organo-mineral fertilizers. The method allows the determination of the total concentration of each complexed micronutrient in complexes after subtraction of the chelated micro-nutrients content, but it does not identify the individual complexing agents.
This procedure concerns EU organo-mineral fertilizing products which contain complexed micro-nutrients covered by Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [6]. The method is applicable to a mass fraction of the metal complexed of at least 0,07 %, 0,006 % and 0,035 % of Fe, Mn and Zn respectively (see [7]). A lower limit of quantification has not been established for Cu and Co.
Organisch-mineralische Düngemittel - Bestimmung des Anteils an komplexierten Spurennährstoffen
Dieses Dokument legt ein allgemeines Verfahren zur Bestimmung von in organisch-mineralischen Düngemitteln durch Komplexbildner komplexierte Spurennährstoffen fest. Dieses Verfahren ermöglicht die Bestimmung der Gesamtkonzentration jedes komplexierten Spurennährstoffs in Komplexen nach Subtraktion des Gehalts an chelatisierten Spurennährstoffen. Es ermöglicht jedoch nicht die Bestimmung des jeweiligen Komplexbildners.
Dieses Verfahren bezieht sich auf organisch-mineralische Düngeprodukte der EU, die komplexierte Spurennährstoffe enthalten, die unter die Verordnung (EU) 2019/1009 fallen [6]. Das Verfahren ist bei einem Massenanteil des komplexierten Metalls von mindestens 0,07 %, 0,006 % und 0,035 % an Fe, Mn bzw. Zn anwendbar (siehe [7]). Eine niedrigere Bestimmungsgrenze wurde für Cu und Co nicht ermittelt.
Engrais organo-minéraux - Détermination de la fraction d'oligo-éléments complexés
Le présent document spécifie une méthode générale de dosage des oligo-éléments complexés par des agents complexants dans les engrais organo-minéraux. La méthode permet de déterminer la concentration totale de chaque oligo-élément complexé dans des complexes, après avoir soustrait la teneur en oligo-éléments chélatés, mais elle ne permet pas d’identifier les agents complexants individuels.
Ce mode opératoire concerne les fertilisants organo-minéraux UE qui contiennent des oligo-éléments complexés couverts par le Règlement (UE) 2019/1009 [6]. La méthode est applicable à une fraction massique du métal complexé d’au moins 0,07 %, 0,006 % et 0,035 % de Fe, Mn et Zn respectivement (voir [7]). Une limite de quantification plus basse n’a pas été établie pour le Cu et le Co.
Organsko-mineralna gnojila - Določanje deleža kompleksiranih mikrohranil
Ta dokument določa splošno metodo za določevanje mikrohranil, kompleksiranih s sredstvi za kompleksiranje v organsko-mineralnih gnojilih. Metoda omogoča določanje skupne koncentracije vsakega kompleksiranega mikrohranila v kompleksih po odštetju vsebnosti kelatiranih mikrohranil, vendar ne identificira posameznih sredstev za kompleksiranje.
Ta postopek se navezuje na organsko-mineralna sredstva za gnojenje EU, ki vsebujejo kompleksirana mikrohranila, zajeta v Uredbi (EU) 2019/1009 [6]. Metoda se uporablja za masni delež kompleksirane kovine najmanj 0,07 %, 0,006 % oziroma 0,035 % Fe, Mn oziroma Zn (glej točko [7]). Spodnja meja kvantifikacije za Cu in Co ni določena.

Introduction
Micronutrients are considered to be, in plant nutrition, a number of elements known to be needed in
small amounts for proper plant growth and development. The most common are Iron (Fe), Manganese
(Mn), Molybdenum (Mo), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn) and Boron (B).
If an organo-mineral fertilizer contains a substance, or one of the substances in the mixture, which is
intended to enhance the long-term availability to plants of micronutrients in the EU fertilizing product,
that substance can be either a chelating agent or a complexing agent.
The incorporation of complexing agents in organo-mineral fertilizers is intended to enhance the long-
term availability to plants of micronutrients in such EU fertilizing products.
WARNING – Users of this document should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This document

1 Scope
This document specifies a general method for the determination of the micronutrients complexed by
complexing agents in organo-mineral fertilizers. The method allows the determination of the total
concentration of each complexed micronutrient in complexes after subtraction of the chelated micro-
nutrients content, but it does not identify the individual complexing agents.
This procedure concerns EU organo-mineral fertilizing products which contain complexed micro-
nutrients covered by Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [6]. The method is applicable to a mass fraction of the
metal complexed of at least 0,07 %, 0,006 % and 0,035 % of Fe, Mn and Zn respectively (see [7]). A lower
limit of quantification has not been established for Cu and Co.
