Abstract
The effects of different storage procedures on the analysis of nitrate, phosphate
and silicate in seawater samples have been compared. The storage
procedures included freezing and refrigeration of seawater samples, the latter
with and without the addition of chloroform as a preservative. Refrigeration
of the samples (1-3°C) up to 6 days, without preservative, was found to be
the most reliable storage procedure. For periods longer than 6 days, addition
of chloroform (0.5-1% v/v) will preserve the samples for months without significant
losses in accuracy and precision.
