of the dilution water are mixed with nitrification inhibitors
and subjected to the same treatment as the sample
dilutions. The blank value is determined from the
measurement of the oxygen content of the blank value
solutions before and after the incubation period.

substance to conduct an electric current. In water
analysis, the electrical conductivity is a dimension for the
ionized substances in a solution.
