AGRI-1-5-TOC and N2 Analyzer-Shimadzu VCPH - Carbon and Nitrogen analyzer
The TOC and N2 Analyzer (Shimadzu VCPH) is used for studying biochemical and environmental processes, such as nitrification and denitrification in the nitrogen cycle and analyzing the carbon-to-nitrogen (C:N) ratio to understand organic matter decomposition and nutrient availability. The device allows for the measurement of greenhouse gas emissions, organic contamination monitoring, available nitrogen content, and compost quality, along with measurements of nutrient leaching into groundwater and biological nitrogen fixation. It also aids in analyzing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) emissions and soil homogenization. These capabilities provide essential information for improving sustainable agriculture and natural resource conservation.
