The indicator paper strip responds to strong oxidants, dissolved in the sample like chlorine, ozone, hydrogen peroxide, etc. Free iodine liberated by these oxidants reacts in turn with starch to form a deep blue dye. The scaling + or ++ does not quantify any value, e.g. in mg/l. The test paper shall be used only for the presence-absence test of oxidants. A quantification of oxidants is not possible with this indicator paper. The paper is intended to detect the presence of weak to moderate oxidizer. This is only a qualitative test and not a quantitative test.

General description
Potassium iodine paper is used for the determination of oxidizing agents. In contact with oxidizing agents such as sulfite or sulfur dioxide, it turns blue. This is a qualitative test paper, telling whether oxidizing agents are in the sample or not. For a semiquantitative or quantitative result, please consider a test for a specific oxidizing agent from our MQuant®, Reflectoquant® or Spectroquant® portfolio.
