• For use in Aquaculture and Food processing industry
• For the rapid and reliable determination of Nitrate and Nitrite in solutions. The easy dip-and-read-procedure of the test strips provides a reliable result within 1 minute
• Cooling lubricants are regularly tested for Nitrite, which is an undesired byproduct as it allows the formation of carcinogenic compounds
• For the testing of Nitrite in natural and drinking water as it can lead to infant mortality and dead aquatic life. The EPA primary drinking water standard is 1 mg/l
• Nitrate is also a byproduct of 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 Nitrate in higher levels. The EU threshold value is 50 mg/l and can be safely controlled with QUANTOFIX Nitrate / Nitrite test strips
• For the testing of Nitrate content in food, which is often prevalent in preservatives or present in food due to over-fertilization. Excessive nitrate concentrations in food can have adverse effects on food quality and consumer health. Regular nitrate tests in the food industry are therefore very important
• Used by farmers to control the nitrogen content in soil to estimate the amount of fertilizer needed
• Used to test Nitrate (instead of Ammonium) in ponds and aquariums to control the water quality
• Color reaction: white to red-violet
• Gradation: 0 - 10 - 25 - 50 - 100 - 250 - 500 mg/l NO3- (Nitrate)
• Gradation: 0 - 1 - 5 - 10 - 20 - 40 - 80 mg/l NO2- (Nitrite)
