MQuant® Chloride test strips (110079) are designed for the easy detection of chloride ions in various environments. The test principle is based on the reaction of chloride ions with silver ions on the test zone, which decolorizes the red-brown silver chromate. The resulting color change is compared against a visual color scale to determine the concentration. These strips are highly recommended for wastewater analysis, as high chloride levels can interfere with COD measurements. By using these strips first, analysts can determine the necessary dilution factor, saving time and reagents.7 As part of a sustainability initiative, this product features a recycled aluminum tube and a reduced strip width to minimize environmental waste.
Advantages
- Fast Screening: Provides reliable results in less than a minute.
- COD Pre-testing: Ideal for identifying chloride interference before expensive and time-consuming COD tests.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for natural waters, industrial wastewater, and even solid food surfaces like meats.
- Sustainable Design: Part of a "Greener Alternative" initiative with recycled packaging and reduced material usage.
- Ease of Handling: No additional reagents or complex equipment required for on-site or lab use.
