一般描述
With the MQuant® Ammonium test (formally MColortest®) ammonium ions can be detected in e.g. groundwater and surface water, seawater, drinking water and aquarium water. Ammonium nitrogen (NH4-N) occurs partly in the form of ammonium ions and partly as ammonia. A pH-dependent equilibrium exists between the two forms.
Method
In strongly alkaline solution ammonia reacts with a chlorinating agent to form monochloramine. This in turn reacts with thymol to form a blue indophenol derivative. Due to the intrinsic yellow coloration of the reagent blank, the measurement solution is yellow-green to green in color. The ammonium concentration is measured semiquantitatively by visual comparison of the color of the measurement solution with the color fields of a color card.The unique brilliance of the print and their fine color graduation allow precise analyses, even at the lower end of the concentration range. Due to the long test tubes a sensitive measurement range can be covered.
This test is suitable for ammonium determination in
- Groundwater and surface water
- Drinking water and mineral water
- Wastewater
- Aquarium water, waters from aquaculture
- Boiler and boiler feed water, cooling water
- Swimming-pool water
- Nutrient solutions for fertilization
- Food after appropriate sample pretreatment
This test is not suited for seawater.
Method: colorimetric, indophenol blue, with color card and comparator block with long test tubes 0.025-0.050-0.075-0.10-0.15-0.20-0.25-0.30-0.40 mg/l NH<SUB>4</SUB> 0.02-0.04-0.06-0.08-0.12-0.16-0.19-0.23-0.31 mg/l NH4-N MQuant®
