QUANTOFIX Copper Sensitive 5 (0.1-5mg/L) box of 25 strips

Semi-quantitative test strips for the determination of Copper (Graduations: 0 - 0.1 - 0.5 - 1.0 - 2.0 - 5.0 mg/L Cu^{+ / 2+}. Ideal for rapid and easy analysis of Copper directly on-site. No maintenance or calibration is required.

In excessive concentrations, copper is a cytotoxic heavy metal. Copper ions pass into tap and fresh water through metal bodies containing copper. QUANTOFIX® Copper Sensitive 5 allows the reliable determination of copper concentrations as low as 0.1 mg/L (ppm) for which usually liquid reagent tests are needed. A hole in the plastic carrier allows the water to migrate through the test pad, providing a high level of sensivity.

Rapid
Most of the QUANTOFIXtest strips can be carried out in 10-120 seconds. That makes the application very quick for the end user.

Convenient
All QUANTOFIXtests are ready to use kits. They are precalibrated and contain all necessary equipment and reagents.

Precise
The colour charts are adjusted and checked using certified standard solutions that are directly traceable to primary NIST standards. The user can be sure to receive accurate readings whenever he tests. 

A QUANTOFIX test stick consists of a plastic strip of 0.2mm thickness to which, at the lower end, a test paper has been sealed. The size of the test paper area permits a clear comparison with the fields of equal size of the colour scale provided on the plastic box. The length of the test sticks is sufficient to permit easy handling even in cases where aggressive or otherwise noxious solutions are to be tested.

The plug of the vial contains a desiccant for increased shelf life of the sticks.
