Application


  • Ecotoxicological evaluation of effluent from bovine slaughterhouses disinfected by peracetic acid (PAA): This research assesses the environmental impact of peracetic acid used in the disinfection of wastewater from bovine slaughterhouses, using the bioindicator Girardia tigrina, which is crucial for environmental safety assessments (Pereira et al., 2024).

General description

Method: reflectometric with test strips 1.0 - 22.5 mg/l Reflectoquant®
Peracetic acid is a frequently used disinfectant. The Reflectoquant Peracetic acid test strips are suited for the selective determination of the peracetic acid concentration in aqueous solutions and to check for the absence of peracetic acid after rinsing processes, also in cases in which hydrogen peroxide is present. Peracetic acid reacts with an aromatic amine to form a blue dye that is determined reflectometrically on the RQflex® 20. For pre-testing a sample in an economic and quick way to estimate the peracetic acid concentration and a possible dilution factor prior to using this quantitative method we recommend our semi-quantitative MQuant test strips for peracetic acid.
