Abstract

The paper represents the results on working out spectrophotometric procedure for determination of photosynthetic pigments in peat samples of different origin. According to the results of implementation of this technique at conditions of inter-laboratory precision; relative error in determination of chlorophyll "a" does not exceed 20%; chlorophyll «b» - 32%.
