Organo-mineral fertilizers - Identification of chelating agents - Part 1: Determination of EDTA, HEEDTA and DTPA by ion chromatography
This document specifies a method for the determination by ion chromatography of the total amount of each of the individual chelating agents EDTA, HEEDTA, and DTPA in organo-mineral fertilizers, having an organic matrix based on vegetal residues (cocoa shells, grape residue, soybean residue, …), algae extract, and animal meal (feather, bones, blood, ...) and containing one or more of these substances.
The method allows the identification and the determination of the total water-soluble fraction of each of these chelating agents. It does not allow to distinguish between the free form and the metal bound form of the chelating agents.
This method applies to organo-mineral fertilizers containing chelates of one or more of the following micronutrients: cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, zinc and with a mass fraction of at least 0,1 %.
Organisch-mineralische Düngemittel - Identifizierung von Chelatbildnern - Teil 1: Bestimmung von EDTA, HEEDTA und DTPA mittels Ionenchromatographie
Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur ionenchromatographischen Bestimmung des Gesamtgehalts der einzelnen Chelatbildner EDTA, HEEDTA und DTPA in organisch-mineralischen Düngemitteln fest, die eine organische Matrix auf Basis von pflanzlichen Reststoffen (Kakaoschalen, Traubenreststoffe, Sojabohnenreststoffe usw.), Algenextrakt und Tiermehl (Federn, Knochen, Blut usw.) aufweisen und einen oder mehrere dieser Stoffe enthalten.
Das Verfahren erlaubt die Identifizierung und die Bestimmung des gesamten wasserlöslichen Anteils jedes einzelnen der genannten Chelatbildner. Es erlaubt nicht die Unterscheidung zwischen der freien und der metallgebundenen Form der Chelatbildner.
Das Verfahren ist auf organisch-mineralische Düngemittel anwendbar, die Chelate eines oder mehrerer der folgenden Spurennährstoffe aufweisen: Kobalt, Kupfer, Eisen, Mangan, Zink mit einem Massenanteil von mindestens 0,1 %.
Engrais organo-minéraux - Identification des agents chélatants - Partie 1 : Détermination de l'EDTA, de l'HEEDTA et du DTPA par chromatographie ionique
Le présent document spécifie une méthode pour la détermination par chromatographie ionique de la quantité totale de chacun des agents chélatants individuels, à savoir EDTA, HEEDTA et DTPA, dans les engrais organo-minéraux ayant une matrice organique basée sur des résidus végétaux (coques de cacao, résidus de raisins, résidus de soja …), des extraits d’algue et des farines animales (plumes, os, sang ...) et contenant une ou plusieurs de ces substances.
La méthode permet l’identification et la détermination de la fraction totale soluble dans l’eau de chacun de ces agents chélatants. Elle ne permet pas de faire la distinction entre la forme libre et la forme métallique de l’agent chélatant.
La présente méthode s’applique aux engrais organo-minéraux contenant des chélates d’au moins un des oligo-éléments suivants : cobalt, cuivre, fer, manganèse, zinc, avec une fraction massique d’au moins 0,1 %.
Organsko-mineralna gnojila - Identifikacija sredstev za kelatiranje - 1. del: Določevanje EDTA, HEEDTA in DTPA z ionsko kromatografijo
Ta dokument navaja metodo za določanje skupne količine vsakega od posameznih sredstev za kelatiranje EDTA, HEEDTA in DTPA z ionsko kromatografijo v organsko-mineralnih gnojilih, ki imajo organsko matrico na osnovi rastlinskih ostankov (kakavovih lupin, ostankov grozdja, soje ...), izvlečkov alg in živalske moke (perje, kosti, kri ...) ter vsebujejo eno ali več teh snovi.
Metoda omogoča opredelitev in določevanje skupnega v vodi topnega deleža vsakega od teh sredstev za kelatiranje. Metoda ne dopušča razlikovanja med prosto obliko sredstva za kelatiranje in obliko sredstva za kelatiranje, vezano na kovino.
Ta metoda se uporablja za organsko-mineralna gnojila, ki vsebujejo kelate enega ali več naslednjih mikrohranil: kobalta, bakra, železa, mangana, cinka, in sicer z masnim deležem najmanj 0,1 %.

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 is either a chelating agent or a complexing agent.
1
The chelating agents are divided into two groups :
— Group 1: EDTA, DTPA, HEEDTA, IDHA and [S,S]-EDDS;
— Group 2: Chelating agents present in UVCB (unknown or variable composition, complex reaction
products or biological materials) chelates including [o,o] EDDHA, [o,p] EDDHA, [o,o] EDDHMA, HBED
and EDDHSA.
This document specifies the test method to be used in order to determine the content of certain chelating
agents (EDTA, DTPA and HEEDTA) in organo-mineral fertilizers (product function category (PFC) 1(B)
according to Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [4]).

Abbreviated terms are described in Annex A.

1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination by ion chromatography of the total amount of
each of the individual chelating agents EDTA, HEEDTA, and DTPA in organo-mineral fertilizers, having an
organic matrix based on vegetal residues (cocoa shells, grape residue, soybean residue, …), algae extract,
and animal meal (feather, bones, blood, .) and containing one or more of these substances.
The method allows the identification and the determination of the total water-soluble fraction of each of
these chelating agents. It does not allow to distinguish between the free form and the metal bound form
of the chelating agents.
This method applies to organo-mineral fertilizers containing chelates of one or more of the following
micronutrients: cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, zinc and with a mass fraction of at least 0,1 %.
2 Normative references

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 12944-1 and EN 12944-2 apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at https://www.iso.org/obp
— IEC Electropedia: available at https://www.electropedia.org/
4 Principle
The micronutrients associated with the chelating agents present in an aqueous extract of the sample are
replaced by iron(III). The iron chelates are separated and determined by ion chromatography. The
separation is based on anion exchange, by elution with a nitrate acetate solution. The detection is based
on UV photometry at 330 nm, after post-column reaction with diluted perchloric acid.
5 Interferences
Several substances can interfere, to a degree largely dependent on the type of column used. With the
column described in 7.2, the following phenomena have been observed.
a) Injection of solutions having high concentrations of salts can cause shifts in the retention times,
mostly decreasing the retention when compared to the standard solutions. In these cases, the identity
of the peaks can be confirmed by standard addition.
b) Solutions having high concentrations of salts can also create a large signal at the void volume, poorly
resolved from the HEEDTA peak.
c) High concentrations of nitrate, carbonate, sulfate, and phosphate do not interfere. However, large
amounts of chloride create a negative fronting peak poorly resolved from the DTPA peak and altering
its peak shape.

d) Compounds, related to the group of polyamino polycarboxylic acids can interfere. While signals for
[o,o] EDDHA, [o,o] EDDHMA, and EDDHSA are not detected, relatively weak signals are observed for
NTA and CDTA. Under some conditions NTA can coelute with HEEDTA or EDTA.
e) No signals have been detected for the following complexing agents: citrate, oxalate, tartrate,
phthalate, and 20 naturally occurring amino acids.
