General description

Urea-15N2 enriched with 15N isotope.

Application

Urea-15N2 is used
  • In agriculture research as a technique to determine uptake or denitrification and leaching losses of native soil N via the “added N interaction".
  • In horticulture, massive labeling of trees to ascertain that N originating from 15N leaf labeling.
