Sulphur (Elemental) in Soils by HPLC

SOP: 2180

UKAS accredited; MCERTS accredited

Aliquots of dried and ground soil are extracted into dichloromethane.  The filtered extracts are analysed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using ultraviolet detection at 263nm.

Registered in England and Wales · Registration Number 6511736 · VAT Number 887127683. Eurofins Chemtest is a member of the EIC, Environment Industries Commission.

    A number of different publications and standards cite sulphate methods. BR279 (1995) has largely been superseded by analytical procedures as detailed in TRL 447 and BRE Special Digest:1 2005 3rd Edition. In addition further reference may be made to BS EN 144-1:2009 + A1:2012 for the testing of aggregates and BS 1377:2018 for soils for civil engineering purposes.
