This kit tests for Cyanide levels in water using the Octa-Slide 2 comparator. Range and sensitivity is 0.0, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40 ppm Free CN-.
Using the LaMotte Cyanide in Water Test Kit, the cyanide is first reacted with a chlorine donor to form cyanogen chloride, which then reacts with pyridine-barbituric acid to form a red-blue color. Levels are determined using the Octa-Slide 2 comparator.
