<p>This document specifies a method for the determination of ammonia in tobacco and tobacco products using ion chromatographic analysis.</p>
<p>It is applicable to tobacco, processed tobaccos, smokeless tobacco products and cigarette filler. The ammonia calibration range specified in the method is from 0,100 μg/ml to 10,0 μg/ml. This range correlates to 10 µg/g to 1 000 µg/g ammonia in tobacco. Samples with higher levels of ammonia can be diluted prior to analysis to bring the samples within the calibration range.</p>
