QUANTOFIX Ammonium test strips* (Tube of 100 test strips and reagents)

• Allows the quick and easy determination of ammonium in solutions

• Comes with all necessary reagents so that the measurement can be started immediately. Within 10 seconds one gets a reliable result

• Naturally, ammonium results from the biological decay from plant and animal matter

• High concentrations can be found in rural, farming areas where fertilizers are regularly used

• Also, industrial effluents may contain ammonium in high levels

• Ammonium itself is relatively harmless. Depending on the pH, however, part of the ammonium is transformed to the aggressive NH3-gas, which is poisonous for aquatic life. Ammonium levels >1 mg/L are not suitable for fish

• As an indicator for decomposition of animal or vegetable substances, control of ammonium is also important for the water supply

• Color reaction: bright yellow to orange

• Gradation: 0 - 10 - 25 - 50 - 100 - 200 - 400 mg/L NH4+
