USING LIQUID AND POWDER REAGENTS TIPS FOR AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENT • Proper use of the dropper: The instructions listed below should be carefully followed during testing to ensure most accurate results. (a) for reproducible results, tap the dropper on the table for several times and wipe the outside of the dropper tip with a cloth.
Pay attention to push the cuvette completely down in the holder. HEALTH & SAFETY The chemicals contained in the reagent kits may be hazardous if improperly handled. Read the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before performing tests. Safety equipment: Wear suitable eye protection and clothing when required, and follow instructions carefully. Reagent spills: If a reagent spill occurs, wipe up immediately and rinse with plenty of water.
• After the desired method was selected, follow the measurement described in the related section. OPERATIONAL GUIDE • Before performing a test you should read all the instructions carefully.
