Organic and organo-mineral fertilizers - Determination of the biuret content by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)

This document is applicable to fertilizing products, which are classified as PFC 1(A) and PFC 1(B) or the PFC 1(A) and PFC 1(B) component in PFC 7 of Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [4]. However, the present method was not validated for blends.
This document specifies a method for the determination of the biuret content by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detector. The method is applicable to organic and organo-mineral fertilizers containing urea.
Nowadays, there is a method standardized as EN 15479 that allows the determination of biuret in urea by spectrophotometric detection. Organic and organo-mineral fertilizers contain organic matter and other compounds apart from urea that would interfere in a spectrophotometric method. HPLC allows an accurate determination of biuret by separating it from possible interfering compounds [2] [3].

Organische und organisch-mineralische Düngemittel - Bestimmung des Biuretgehalts mittels Hochleistungs-Flüssigkeitschromatographie (HPLC)

Dieses Dokument ist für Düngeprodukte anzuwenden, die den Kategorien PFC 1(A) und PFC 1(B) zugeordnet oder als Komponente der Kategorien PFC 1(A) und PFC 1(B) in PFC 7 der Verordnung (EU) 2019/1009 [4] eingestuft sind. Das vorliegende Verfahren wurde jedoch nicht für Mischungen validiert.
Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Biuretgehalts mittels Hochleistungs-Flüssigkeitschromatographie (HPLC) mit UV Detektor fest. Das Verfahren ist für organische und organisch-mineralische Düngemittel, die Harnstoff enthalten, anzuwenden.
Heutzutage gibt es ein als EN 15479 genormtes Verfahren, das die Bestimmung von Biuret in Harnstoff durch spektrophotometrische Detektion ermöglicht. Organische und organisch-mineralische Düngemittel enthalten neben Harnstoff auch andere Verbindungen, die bei einem spektralphotometrischen Verfahren stören würden. Die HPLC ermöglicht eine genaue Bestimmung von Biuret, indem sie es von möglichen störenden Verbindungen trennt [2] [3].

Engrais organiques et organo-minéraux - Détermination de la teneur en biuret par chromatographie liquide à haute performance (HPLC)

Le présent document est applicable aux fertilisants qui sont classés dans les catégories PFC 1(A) et PFC 1(B) ou comme composants de PFC 1(A) et de PFC 1(B) dans la catégorie PFC 7 du Règlement (UE) 2019/1009 [4]. Toutefois, la présente méthode n’a pas été validée pour les mélanges.
Le présent document spécifie une méthode pour la détermination de la teneur en biuret par chromatographie en phase liquide haute performance (HPLC) avec un détecteur UV. La méthode est applicable aux engrais organiques et organo-minéraux contenant de l’urée.
De nos jours, il existe une méthode normalisée, l’EN 15479, qui permet de doser le biuret dans l’urée par détection spectrophotométrique. Cependant, les engrais organiques et organo-minéraux contiennent de la matière organique et des composés autres que l’urée qui interfèreraient en cas d’utilisation d’une méthode spectrophotométrique. La HPLC permet un dosage exact du biuret en le séparant des composés pouvant interférer [2] [3].

This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 13 March 2022 for provisional application.

The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to
submit their comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.

CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS
available promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in
parallel to the CEN/TS) until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.

Introduction
Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [4] lays down the rules on the making available on the market of EU
fertilizing products and the specific safety and quality requirements for the defined product function
categories (PFCs). Organic and organo-mineral fertilizers have been classified as PFC 1(A) and PFC 1(B).
This document defines test methods for the determination of the biuret content to be used for organic
and organo-mineral fertilizers in order to measure the compliance with the related requirement in
Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [4].
When heating urea near or above its melting point (132 °C) during the manufacturing of urea, ammonia
slowly evolves and several different substances, including biuret, are formed. Excessively high
concentrations of biuret can have detrimental effects on plants growth.
