Test Kit Zinc 0-5ppm<\/p>\n
It is a colorimetric chemical test kit that determines the zinc concentration in samples within a 0.0 to 5.0 mg\/L (ppm) range.
It is a chemical test kit that uses an adaptation of the zincon method to measure zinc.
It is supplied complete with all of the reagents and equipment necessary to perform 100 tests.<\/p>\n
Pre-made reagents for ease of use
All reagents marked with expiration date and lot number for traceability
Colour comparison cube for simple determination<\/p>\n
Test Kit Zinc 0-5ppm<\/p>\n
Zinc occurs in small amounts in almost all igneous rocks.
Zinc imparts an undesirable astringent taste to water.
Tests indicate that 5% of a population could distinguish between zinc-free water and water containing zinc at a level of 4mg\/litre (as zinc sulfate)*.
In tapwater, the zinc concentration can be much higher as a result of the leaching of zinc from piping and fittings*.
Drinking-water usually makes a negligible contribution to zinc intake unless high concentrations of zinc occur as a result of corrosion of pipings and fittings. Under certain circumstances, tapwater can provide up to 10% of the daily intake*.<\/p>\n

Benefits of testing for Zinc:<\/p>\n
A certain amount of zinc is required, but an excessive amount can lead to zinc poisoning.
Symptoms can include fever, nausea, vomiting, stomach cramps and diarrhoea, sometimes accompanied by bleeding and abdominal cramps.
Increased daily dosage above the recommended dietary allowance has also resulted in copper deficiencies and the impairment of various immune responses.
A daily dietary requirement of zinc of 0.3mg\/kg of body weight and a provisional maximum tolerable daily intake (PMTDI) of 1.0 mg\/kg of body weight (35) has been proposed. T
These patented Zinc Check water quality test strips are easy to use and designed to eliminate the need for breakable meters that require calibration:<\/p>\n
Test Kit Zinc 0-5ppm<\/p>\n
Simple Dip-Wait-Read Testing Method.
Test strips are stored in a plastic container with a detailed colour chart to protect them.
Ideal for quick and reliable testing of water.
Accurate results are achieved in under one minute.
This product is safe and easy to use since there are no chemicals to mix, an MSDS is not required.
Factory-calibrated water quality test strips.
Since there is no glass required to run the test, it is ideal for use in controlled areas.
Suitable for: fresh water samples, including water from taps, wells, springs, boreholes, ponds, as well as rain water<\/p>\n
Content: 50 strips<\/p>\n
Sensitivity: 0, 2, 5, 10, 20, 40, 100 mg\/lInterferences: Similar colour development may occur in the pressence of Cu+2 (>0.1ppm), Mn+2 (>5ppm) and Fe+2 (>10ppm).<\/p>\n
