Nesslerization is the treatment or examination, as a liquid, with a solution of mercuric iodide in potassium iodide and potassium hydroxide, which is called Nessler's solution or Nessler's test, and is used to detect the presence of ammonia.
Ammonia concentrations are determined by direct Nesslerization. In some waters, calcium and magnesium concentrations can cause cloudiness of the reagent. Adding a few drops of stabilizer solution (Rochelle Salt) will prevent this cloudiness. Results are expressed as ppm (mg/L) NH3-N.

Did you perhaps mean "nesslerization"? It's best to read your chemistry homework really carefully before using the web to do it!
It's a way of measuring low-level nitrogen or ammonia using flasks that tend to explode a lot!

Do you mean nesslerization then this is the defination that i could find:
(ness·ler·iza·tion) (nes²l[schwa]r-[ibreve]-za¢sh[schwa]n) treatment with Nessler's reagent.
