Testing of Organic Matter in Biofertilizers

After biofertilizer is applied to the soil, the organic matter can effectively improve the physical and chemical conditions and biological properties of the soil and ripen the soil. It enhances the fertilizer supply capacity and buffering capacity of the soil, creating good soil conditions for crop growth. In addition, after decomposition in the soil, biofertilizer provides energy and nutrients for soil microbial activities, promotes microbial activities, accelerates the decomposition of organic matter, and produces active substances and other substances that can promote crop growth.

Biofertilizers

The organic matter content of biofertilizer is rich, which can improve the soil and fertilize the ground. Therefore, testing organic matter content in biofertilizers is a must. To meet this requirement, Lifeasible provides our clients with organic matter testing services for biofertilizers using a variety of methods. The test results help our customers to better understand the organic matter status in biofertilizers, as well as the distribution of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. This allows you to analyze the organic matter of the biofertilizer and improve the formulation for crop growth at a low cost.

Modified organic matter testing method for biofertilizers

We offer an improved method for the determination of the organic matter in biofertilizers, which makes the measurement results closest to the real values that can be used by plants and do not interfere with the determination of target substances due to undegraded hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin. Therefore, the method is suitable for the determination of organic matter content in biofertilizers produced by mixing lignocellulose-based raw materials with manure-based raw materials.

Modified organic matter testing method for biofertilizers - Lifeasible

  • Avoid the interference caused by lignocellulose to the determination of organic matter content in biofertilizer and ensure the accuracy of the measurement results.
  • Cost-effective and easy to operate, suitable for carrying out large-scale determination of a large number of samples.
  • For the study of the variation pattern of organic matter in compost.

Determination of organic matter in biofertilizer by infrared spectrometry

The infrared spectrometry we offer is based on the principle that different substances have selective absorption of infrared light and can be used to determine the composition structure and content of the substance molecules. It can be used for both qualitative and quantitative analysis, and most organic substances have infrared absorption. Using our method for testing the organic matter of biofertilizers has the advantages of being simple, fast, and green.

Methods Description
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) method We use visible-NIRS along with different modeling approaches for the determination of the organic matter content of biofertilizers.
Diffuse reflection method We use near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectroscopy to determine the organic matter of biofertilizers in the wavelength range of 1300-2400 nm and develop a partial least squares model for organic matter. The use of this detection method avoids factors that interfere with organic matter detection, such as reduced iron oxide.
Attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy We used attenuated total internal reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) to test some special biofertilizer samples that are difficult to crush, difficult to fuse, and difficult to dissolve.

The content of organic matter in biofertilizers is an important basis for judging their quality. Therefore, the determination of the organic matter in biofertilizers is of particular importance in agricultural farming. Lifeasible can provide organic matter testing services for biofertilizers to our customers. Please feel free to contact us for the latest testing.
