This kit tests for Calcium Hardness in fresh or salt water. Includes inhibitors to eliminate metal interference’s. All results are as CaCO3. Range/sensitivity is 0-200 ppm/4 ppm CaCO3, 0-2,500 ppm by dilution.

 

The user-friendly SMART® 3 Colorimeter is the ideal direct reading colorimeter for complete on-site water analyses.

The compact SMART®3 Colorimeter is ideal for water analysis in the field or in the lab. Easy to use software allows the analyst to choose a test factor from over 60 pre-programmed calibrations for LaMotte reagent systems. The reacted sample is always scanned at the optimum wavelength which is automatically selected from the multiple LED optical system and the test result is presented on the large, backlit display. The colorimeter test results is displayed directly in units of concentration, as well as Absorbance and %T, in one of seven languages. The analyst also has the option of entering up to 25 additional calibrations for analysis with custom reagent systems. Test factors can be arranged in any of three sequences that can be modified at any time to meet changing testing needs. The data logger holds up to 500 time and date stamped data-points. A USB connection allows an interface of the colorimeter with a computer for real-time data acquisition and data transfer. The meter logs up to 500 data points.

 

This Salinity kit test for salinity using the Direct Reading Titrator method. Range and sensitivity is 0-40 ppt/0.4 ppt Salinity.

 

This kit tests for Turbidity using the drop count method. Range and sensitivity is 5-100 JTU/5 JTU, 10-200 JTU/10 JTU.

 

Anionic surfactants are extracted with toluene and break up an ion pair, releasing bromphenol blue into a water layer. Using the drop count method, a standard color reagent is then used to determine the concentration. Range and sensitivity is 1 drop = 1.0 ppm Detergent.

 

The Insta-Test Ammonia test strips provide a fast and easy method for testing ammonia levels in fresh or salt water. Range/sensitivity is 0, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, 6.0 (ppm) NH3.

 

This kit tests for Total Hardness by using the Direct Reading Titrator Method. All results are as CaCO3. Range/sensitivity is 0-200 ppm/4ppm CaCO3.

 

Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA)

In 1955, Leavitt et al. discovered that Tryptic Soy Agar facilitated vigorous growth of aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms. This is an enriched media, suitable to support fastidious heterotrophs.

Rose Bengal Chloramphenicol Agar (RB)

Selective medium for the enumeration of fungi. This formula is prepared with a neutral pH and supplemented with chloramphenicol as the selective agent in fungal medium.

Application

Tryptic Soy Agar is recommended in multiple water & wastewater applications, and numerous standard methods for food testing. TSA is commonly used as a maintenance medium for culture collections and testing bacterial contaminants in cosmetics. Rose Bengal Chloramphenicol Agar is recommended in Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater for the enumeration of yeasts and molds from foods and water.
