- Description:
- Foliar nutrient analysis results and laboratory analysis protocol were compared for three laboratories used by the IFTNC. Analysis of variance showed significant differences between laboratories for the same sample tissue. In addition, even though all three laboratories use ICP instrumentation, protocol techniques for preparing the foliage samples for analysis differ between laboratories. Various standards and internal checks are used routinely by each laboratory. It appears that the techniques used to digest and prepare the foliage samples are the main sources of variation between laboratories.
