- Abstract
The aim of this work was to separate fractions of zinc and copper in forest Luvisols by three sequential extraction methods, and to compare the content of these metals separated in four fractions: easily soluble, exchangeable, bounded to organic matter and residual. The sequential fractionation of zinc and copper compounds was carried out according to the method by Tessier et al. modified by the authors, Zeien and Brtüanmer's method and Hedley's method in modification by Tiessen and Moir. In general, the highest amounts of both metals were determined in residual fraction, and the lowest -- in easy soluble and exchangeable ones. The statistical evaluation of results has revealed that the amounts of Zn and Cu in easy soluble, exchangeable, bound to organic matter and residual fractions are typically correlated with some properties of the analyzed Luvisols.
