Nickel bioavailability assessed by ion exchange resin in the field /Becquer, Thierry Rigault, F. /Jaffré, Tanguy NICKEL RELATION SOL PLANTE SOL FLEUR ASSIMILATION ROCHE ULTRAMAFIQUE To measure nickel (Ni) bioavailability experiments were conducted in the field using ion exchange resin (IER) method. Resin bags were inserted into the upper layer of soils developed on ultramafic rocks in New Caledonia. Their Ni contents were determined after four weeks and compared to those of plant leaves of five species. Significant correlations were obtained so that the IER appeared to be successful for routine applications. Furthermore, the use of chemical reactants such as diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) and KCl demonstrated to be much less reliable for assessing the bioavailability of Ni. 2002 text https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010060943 fdi:010060943 Becquer Thierry, Rigault F., Jaffré Tanguy.
