Peracetic Acid Test Strips, colorimetric

Method: Colorimetric, with test strips, 100 - 150 - 200 - 250 - 300 - 400 - 500 mg/L Peracetic acid, MQuant^®

Peracetic acid is a frequently used disinfectant. Due to its measuring range the MQuant^® Peracetic acid test strips are especially suitable to check the presence of effective levels in peracetic acid based disinfectants. As peracetic acid solutions are very unstable, frequent controls are necessary. Peracetic acid reacts with an aromatic amine to form a blue dye. The concentration of peracetic acid 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 peracetic acid concentration and a possible dilution factor prior to using a quantitative method such as a Reflectoquant^® test.

Design for sustainability benefits:

We continue to demonstrate our commitment to our planet and a sustainable future by exploring ways to improve existing products in our portfolio. We have recently reviewed the current line of MQuant^® test strips to identify key opportunities to minimize impact without compromising on the product performance.

This product has benefited from:

• Test strip with reduction
• Recycled aluminum tube
• Digital instruction leaflet
• Switch from cool storage to room temperature
