This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 19 October 2009 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.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal,

1 Scope
This Technical Specification specifies a method for the determination of phosphorus in fertilizer extracts.
The method is applicable to all extracts of fertilizers for the determination of the different forms of phosphorus
as phosphorus soluble in mineral acids, water soluble phosphorus, phosphorus soluble in solutions of
ammonium citrate, phosphorus soluble in 2 % citric acid and phosphorus soluble in 2 % formic acid.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.
EN 1482-2, Fertilizers and liming materials — Sampling and sample preparation — Part 2: Sample
preparation
EN 12944-1:1999, Fertilizers and liming materials and soil improvers — Vocabulary — Part 1: General terms
EN 12944-2:1999, Fertilizers and liming materials and soil improvers — Vocabulary — Part 2: Terms relating
to fertilizers
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 12944-1:1999 and EN 12944-2:1999
apply.
4 Principle
After possible hydrolysis, phosphorus is precipitated in an acid media in the form of quinoline
phosphomolybdate.
After filtering and washing, the precipitate is dried at 250 °C and weighed.
In the above mentioned conditions no interfering action is exerted by the compounds likely to be found in the
solution (mineral and organic acids, ammonium ions, soluble silicates, etc.) if a reagent based on sodium
molybdate or ammonium molybdate is used in the precipitation.
5 Sampling and sample preparation
Sampling is not part of the method specified in this document. A recommended sampling method is given in
EN 1482-1.
Sample preparation shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1482-2. Grinding of the laboratory sample is
recommended for homogeneity reasons.
