Dialysis Pretreatment for Dissolved Organic Nitrogen Analysis in Freshwaters by Qiang Wang, Bin Hua, John Yang, Fengjing Liu, Guocheng Zhu, Baolin Deng

“…This study was to investigate the impact of two pretreatments of dialysis, dialysis against Millipore water and dialysis against phosphate buffer (4.7 mM H3PO4-5.3 mM KH2PO4, pH 2.2) using a cellulose ester (CE) membrane (100–500 Da molecular weight cutoff), on DON measurement in a broad DIN range from various aquatic ecosystems. Results showed that the removal of NH4-N and NO3-N by both dialysis approaches was highly effective (>80%), but the DON loss by the former was significantly lower than by the latter. …”
