General description
The test can be used for measuring the nitrit concentration of boiler water and cooling water. On the MQuant® Nitrite test strips, nitrite ions react with an aromatic amine to form an orange-red azo dye. The nitrite concentration is measured semi-quantitatively by visual comparison of the reaction zone of the test strip with the fields of a color scale. The test strips are perfect for pre-testing a sample in an economic and quick way to estimate the nitrite concentration and a possible dilution factor prior to using a quantitative method such as a Reflectoquant® or Spectroquant® Nitrite test.
