ABOUT
Rhizon Samplers
Rhizon samplers offer a unique way to sample pore water from soils and sediments by creating a vacuum. Compared to other measures of extracting pore water, Rhizon samplers offer numerous advantages:
- non-destructive; the soil structure stays intact
- inert; there is no ion exchange and no adsorbtion
- small diameter, so a low dead volume
- hydrophilic membrane
- once wet, only permeable for liquid (no air)
- suitable for both saturated and unsaturated soils
- suitable for meausring all dissolved components
- disposable, but once installed suitable for repeated sampling
- no need for additional filtering, this is already done by the membrane
