Hi Ya'll,
For those interested in being able to Identify if the foods they are eating contain NPN. there is a Simple test one may do !
It requires a Refractometer !
With the use of a Refractometer and some Juice from the Fruit or Vegetable in question we may learn if it contains NPN !
When the Brix Test Line is Sharp NPN is present !
When the Brix is Low with a Sharp Line then there may be Lots of NPN !
When the Brix is High with a sharp Line there may be some NPN, but it is not as much a problem as when the Brix is Low !
When the Brix Line is Fuzzy, this means there may be the least amount of NPN !
When the Brix is High with a Fuzzy Line this may mean the Best Quality Fruit or Vegetable to eat !
Edit: What may Cause the Line to be Sharp when NPN is present?
NPN is Free Nitrogen which has not yet been able to Complex into True Protein, which True Protein would be bound with the needed Alkaline Minerals, but the NPN is still Acidic because of the lack of needed Alkaline Minerals !
This Nitrogen(NPN) may be Acidic when it has not been able to Complex with the needed Alkaline Minerals, thus leaving the food Acidic because of this Excess Free Nitrogen !
It is the Excess Nitrogen Acids which may Cause the Brix Line to be Sharp !
If there were enough Calcium & Magnesium and other needed Alkaline Minerals they would be able to cut this Excess Acid and the Brix Line would be Fuzzy !
Cause and Effect !
"WE" are What "WE" Eat !
Smile Tis your choice.

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,393,211Very informative post! Very glad you posted this. However I have a couple questions about the info.
First, when I test the spinach that I eat, it's REALLY hard to tell where the line is period, and just about the entire meter is slightly shaded green (even above where the line would be). It 'seems' like the line is right around 6 brix but it's SO fuzzy that it's hard to tell. Is this suppose to happen?
Second, is it safe to say that it's better to eat something with a fuzzy line and low brix for the type of produce it is, rather than eating something with a higher brix with a very sharp defined line? If you had to make that choice..

Hi dfams1,

Answer: When one gets the juice from leafy vegetables it needs to be pulled from just the stem areas of the leaf !
WHY is this so?
If one includes the whole leaf this may add too much Chlorophyll which may cause it to be Very Fuzzy !
We are after the sap in the stem of the leaf to take the test properly!
Generally the 3rd full leaf from the growing tip may give us a reading Best representative of the plant?
We are always after the Highest Brix reading !
As the brix reading gets higher the NPN becomes Less of a problem !
Cause and Effect !

This is a reply to # 1,393,707Ah, thank you very much, that makes sense. How about something like romaine or lettuce though, where there isn't really a "stem" so to speak, do you test the lower part or does it not matter with this sort of veg?
Thanks again- Re: --answer--NPN Identification -- ... moreless

Answer: These also have a stem, but it is the center of the leaf !
