DESCRIPTION
The Salifert Calcium Test Kit is capable in resolving the calcium content in 10 mg/L steps. The color change is sharp and facilitates the detection of small but highly significant fluctuations in the calcium concentration. Salifert is the only one in offering a true accuracy and precision as claimed.
The kit can perform approx. 50 – 100 measurements.
| REVIEW This is the test I have been using for the last 2 years. It’s the best test kit I’ve found for measuring Calcium and I really like it! All you have to do is to add one drop at the time until the color change to clear blue. It’s really easy to use. If you test regularly and know your Calcium should be near a certain value, then you can add enough reagent quickly to a close value, say 300, mix well, and then slowly add until you get the color change. This saves you some time. For full accruacy, you can use the test in full strength. If you want to save a little, you can also use it at 1/2 the strength (it’s still accruate enough) and double the amount of test you can do with a kit. I found some report where some prople were saying that readings will be off (by 25-50 ppm) a few months. I never had that kind of problems. |
