Frequently Asked Questions
A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.
M/051 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Study and standardization remit assigned to the CEN concerning the updating of the methods of analysing the chelated trace-element content of fertilizers". Study and standardization remit assigned to the CEN concerning the updating of the methods of analysing the chelated trace-element content of fertilizers There are 4 standards developed under this mandate.
Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
This standard defines a method for determination of the chelated trace element content and the chelated fraction of the trace elements (micronutrients) cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, and zinc in fertilizers. This method applies to fertilizers, covered by Directive 89/530/EEC, containing one or more of the trace elements cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, and zinc, chelated by one or more chelating agents of the group of the polyamino polycarboxylic acids.

This method describes the procedure for the ion chromatographic determination of the total amount of each individual chelating agent EDTA, HEDTA, and DTPA in fertilizers, containing one or more of these substances. The method allows the identification and the determination of the total water soluble fraction of each of these chelating agents. It does not allow to distinguish between the free form and the metal bound form of the chelating agent.
