Iron Test, photometric

Description

• General description: Method: photometric 0.010 - 5.00 mg/l Fe Spectroquant® This Spectroquant® Iron test allows the accurate quantification of iron ions in various waters. All iron ions are reduced to iron(II) ions by ascorbic acid. In a buffered medium these react with 2,2’-bipyridine to form a red complex that is determined photometrically. Without the addition of ascorbic acid (reagent Fe-1K), the test measures only iron(II). MQuant® test strips can be used for pre-testing a sample in an economic and quick way to estimate the iron concentration and a possible dilution factor prior to using a quantitative method such as the Spectroquant® test. All our Cell and Reagent Test Kits are equipped with the unique Live ID (2D barcode) which allows seamless method recognition and contains essential information such as lot number, expiry date, and automatic calibration updates. The Spectroquant® Cell Tests come with prefilled 16 mm round cells as well as all the required reagents to perform the analysis according to the procedure described in the accompanying instruction leaflet.
