Sitrogen content in ammoniacal salts or compounds, in albuminoid or protein-like material, and in the form of oxidized nitrogen, or in other words Nitrogen as Free Ammonia or Saline Ammonia Nitrogen as Albuniinoid Ammonia Nitrogen as Nitrites Nitrogen as Nitrates Nitrogen as Total Organic Nitrogen 2. Organic Matter as shown by the quantity of oxygen required to oxidize the material in solution this value is termed oxygen consumed and is expressed in parts per inillion of oxygen used...
