FORMALDEHYDE TEST

General description

Method: photometric 0.02 - 8.00 mg/l HCHO Spectroquant^®

This Spectroquant^® Formaldehyde Reagent Test allows the accurate quantification of the formaldehyde content in aqueous samples such as disinfectants, preservatives, or process wastewater.

Method applied: In sulfuric solution formaldehyde reacts with chromotropic acid to form a violet dye which is determined photometrically.


The Spectroquant^® Reagent Test Kits contain highly stable, ready-to-use reagent mixtures to perform the analysis according to the procedure described in the accompanying instruction leaflet.


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.
