General description

(o-phosphate) Method: photometric, PMB 0.0025 - 5.00 mg/l PO₄-P 0.0077 - 15.3 mg/l PO₄ 0.0057 - 11.46 mg/l P₂O₅ Spectroquant®
The method is analogous to EPA 365.2+3, APHA 4500-P E, and DIN EN ISO 6878.
The Spectroquant®Phosphate Reagent Test allows the accurate quantification of phosphate. Elevated levels of phosphate might lead to eutrophication of water bodies, which is a risk to the environment.
Therefore, the concentration of phosphate in drinking water and wastewater is regulated in many countries. Further applications are the determination of phosphate in foods & beverages (e.g. beer) and in environmental and agricultural samples (e.g. soil).
The Spectroquant® Reagent Test Kits contain highly stable, ready-to-use reagent mixtures to perform the analysis according to the procedure described in the accompanying instruction leaflet.
All our Cell and Reagent Test Kits are equipped with the unique Live ID (2D barcode) which allows seamless method recognition and contains essential information such as lot number, expiry date, and automatic calibration updates.
