7、reword This Section of BS 7755 has been prepared by Subcommittee EPC/48/3. It is identical with ISO 11263:1994 Soil quality Determination of phosphorus Spectrometric determination of phosphorus soluble in sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, published by the International Organization for Standardiza
8、tion (ISO). ISO11263 was prepared by Subcommittee3, Chemical methods, of Technical Committee ISO/TC 190, Soil quality, with the active participation and approval of the UK. BS7755 is being published in a series of Parts subdivided into Sections and Subsections that will generally correspond to parti
9、cular international standards. Other Parts of BS7755 are, or will be, as follows. Part 1: Terminology and classification; Part 2: Sampling; Part 3: Chemical methods; Part 4: Biological methods; Part 5: Physical methods. Textual error. When adopting the text of the international standard, the followi
10、ng textual error was discovered. It has been marked in the text and has been reported to ISO in a proposal to amend the text of the international standard. In 6.4.1, line2, “for 30min” should read “within 30min.” Additional information In 4.1.3, it is important that low phosphorus activated charcoal
11、 is used as charcoal derived from bone contains large quantities of phosphorus and is unsuitable for use in this method. In 6.5, if the absorbance is greater than that of the highest standard solution, then the solution needs diluting accordingly thereby necessitating the use of the dilution factor
12、d in the calculation. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Cross-references In
