Kits de tests environnementaux

Keep it simple with these easy-to-use, individual water test strips

The replacement reagents for the iron tester sold seperatly. These high-quality reagents are manufactured in our state-of-the-art facility and are clearly marked with the lot number and expiration date on each packet for traceability.

The NED method is widely used in the quantitative analysis of nitrite and nitrate in water samples. NED readily undergoes a diazonium coupling reaction in the presence of nitrite to give a strongly colored pink azo compound. The intensity of the color is directly proportional to the concentration of nitrite in the sample. Due to the significant intensity of the developed color even at very low nitrite/nitrate concentrations, lower detection limits and measurement ranges are possible vs. chromotropic acid kits. In addition, the nitrate measurement uses only zinc which is less toxic than cadmium, making handling and disposal safer.

Low dissolved oxygen levels in surface water systems usually indicate serious pollution

Kit provides measurement of ortho- (reactive) and meta- (condensed) phosphate (requires hot acid digestion).

Dissolved Oxygen in water test kits for environmental and drinking water applications (ppm range) employ the indigo carmine method. The reduced form of indigo carmine reacts with D.O. to form a blue product. The indigo carmine methodology is not subject to interferences from temperature, salinity, or dissolved gases such as sulfide, which plague users of D.O. meters.

Most natural waters range from pH 4 to pH 9, but commonly are above pH 7 because of carbonates and bicarbonates (alkalinity).

The Backpack Lab is designed for educators and environmental science students, containing lessons, activities, and test kits that relate to important parameters evaluated in marine science.

Test method: The Peracetic Acid CHEMets® test kit (0 to 1 and 0 to 5 ppm) employs the DPD chemistry. The sample is treated with an excess of potassium iodide. Peracetic acid oxidizes the iodide to iodine. The iodine then oxidizes DPD (N,N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine) to form a pink colored species in direct proportion to the peracetic acid concentration. Various oxidizing agents such as halogens, ferric ions and cupric ions will produce high test results. Hydrogen peroxide does not interfere with this test if present at levels comparable to the peracetic acid levels.

The ammonia test kits employing the well-established Nessler reagent to determine ammonia concentrations are applicable to drinking water, clean surface water, and good-quality nitrified wastewater effluent.

The LaMotte ColorQ meter is a simple way to test low and high concentrations of chlorine.

This chemical test kit measures chloride by titration with mercuric nitrate. This test kit supplied complete with all of the reagents and equipment necessary to perform approximately 110 tests.
