Determination and Analysis of Total Carbon in Plant Samples
Carbon is one of the most abundant mineral elements in the environment, which can form large and complex molecules. The total carbon in plants refers to the organic carbon in plant samples, which is easily oxidized and can be effectively used by plants. Using this characteristic, the content of organic carbon in plant samples can be determined. According to the different conditions (source, variety, organization) and specific testing needs of the samples provided by each customer, Lifeasible adopts a variety of targeted pretreatment methods and detection and analysis methods to provide each customer with professional, accurate, and reliable test data and plant total carbon determination and analysis results.
What We Offer
- Determination and analysis of plant total carbon.
- Detection and analysis of carbon content of vegetation with different niches.
- Calculation of carbon storage of forest/shrub/herbaceous plants.
- Detection and Analysis of Plant-soil carbon flow.
- Detection and Analysis of influencing factors of Plant carbon content.
*The service project is constantly updated, please contact our staff by email for more up-to-date and relevant information.
Methods
- Determination of organic carbon in samples by potassium dichromate oxidation methods.
- Determination of organic carbon in samples by the elemental analyzer.
- Calculation of sample organic carbon based on an organic molecular formula.
- Determination of sample organic carbon based on sample weight (hydrocarbon meter).
Sample Requirement
- Dried plant tissue samples, > 1g
- Fresh plant tissue samples, > 2g (If necessary, we can provide sample drying treatment free of charge.)
The experimental samples will not be returned, please back them up by yourself. Before sampling, it is necessary to set up the control group and the experimental group, and each group is suggested to repeat more than 3 times. Quick-frozen preservation with liquid nitrogen can minimize the leakage time of plant samples at room temperature. There is no restriction on plant varieties. For varieties with special requirements or rare varieties, please contact our staff for more information. [Inquiry]
