Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17184:2014(E)
Soil quality — Determination of carbon and nitrogen by
near-infrared spectrometry (NIRS)
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of carbon and nitrogen in soils by
direct measurement of sample spectra in the near-infrared spectral region. The spectra are evaluated
by a suitable calibration model derived from the results obtained by reference methods.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 11464, Soil quality — Pretreatment of samples for physico-chemical analysis
3 Principle
Soil samples are measured by reflectance near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. Diffuse reflectance NIR
spectroscopy offers a non-destructive means for measurement of soil properties based on reflectance
spectra of illuminated soils. Spectral data are evaluated by a suitable calibrating model derived from the
measurement of a sufficient number of representative soil samples with known content of carbon and/or
nitrogen determined by reference methods. Calibration equations reflect the relationship between the
constituents of the sample and NIR spectral information. The soil samples and the set of calibrating
samples for the NIR measurement are prepared the same way.
NOTE 1 NIR spectrometry is a very fast non-destructive and environmentally friendly analytical technique
when compared to the standard chemical methods used as reference methods.
NOTE 2 Soils generally have similar reflectance spectra in the 1 100 nm to 2 500 nm range. The absorption
peaks for soils in the near-infrared region are difficult to assign to specific chemical components.
4 Apparatus
4.1 Near-infrared instrument, based on measurement of reflectance spectra in the near-infrared
region (wavelength range from 900 nm to 2 500 nm is usually applied). The instrument should be
equipped with a suitable measurement cell for pulverized solid samples. The instrument should measure
sufficiently large sample volume to eliminate any significant influence of inhomogeneity of the sample.
The software shall allow instrument tests, calibration, sample measurement and data evaluation.
Resolution of the instrument should be equal to 8 nm or better.
NOTE Wavelengths of spectra recorded in higher resolution may be averaged to reduce spectra noise and
there is a risk of over fitting of the calibration model. Instruments with lower resolution may be used if their
performance is verified for intended purposes.

5 Procedure
5.1 Preparation of samples
Soil samples shall be prepared the same way as soils used for the instrument calibration. Any difference
in sample preparation may influence the measurement. Sample preparation shall ensure a good
homogenization of the sample.
Sample preparation according to ISO 11464, particle size < 2 mm, is generally used. Air-dried or oven-
dried samples can be used for analysis. The method is not suitable for samples with water content higher
than 10 %. Oven drying is recommended for samples with high specific surface area that are susceptible
to changes in water content due to fluctuations in air humidity.
5.2 Instrument calibration
5.2.1 General
A suitable set of uniformly prepared soil samples is measured by NIR spectroscopy. The spectra and
the results of the content of carbon and/or nitrogen determined by a reference method are used for
calculation of the calibration model. Calibration should include enough samples to cover most of the
possible spectral variability encountered during routine analysis and to predict the composition of
unknown samples accurately. The calibration sample set shall be selected to gain an evenly distributed
coverage of the property range.
The NIR spectra represent cumulative information about the chemical and physical properties of a
sample. Influence of physical properties of a sample (e.g. particle size), is reduced by mathematical
corrections as derivatives, standard normal variate (SNV), multiplicative scatter corrections (MSC),
etc. There are several possible ways for development of calibration equations and no specific procedure
can be given. The choice shall aim at mini
