The variety of the chemical forms of phosphorus compounds occurring in plant tissues, accompanied by the complexity of the chemical composition of plants as the analytical matrices, are the reasons why there is no one, the best answer, how those individual substances may be determined qualitatively and quantitatively. Interestingly, if the subject of determination is the total phosphorus content, the spectrum of effective methods and techniques seems to be impressive. However, in case of spectrophotometric measurements and classical variants of absorption (FAAS) or emission (ICP-AES/ ICP-OES) spectrometry techniques, it is necessary at first to isolate various phosphorus forms from the matrix, and then to mineralize them prior determination. The development of combined methods e.g. ETV-ICP- AES or HR-ETAAS, does allow the isolation of the phosphorus analyte and its detection in a kind of “one step” analytical procedure, directly in plant tissues. Similar benefits, while maintaining the sensitivity of determinations, are brought by the use of XRF, SIMS or nanoSIMS - more expensive techniques of imaging the presence of phosphorus in biological matrices. In turn, the application of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, especially the 31P NMR technique is thought to be the most universal approach. Using this technique and being aware of higher limit of detection, it is possible to determine various plant phosphorus compounds qualitatively and quantitatively, at the same time.
