Aquasol AE317 Ammonia Test Kit

Ammonia is one of the many forms of Nitrogen existing in environment. While other Nitrogen forms (other than Ammonia) can affect aquatic life indirectly Ammonia is directly toxic to aquatic life. Ammonia enters the aquatic surrounding through municipal effluent discharge thru nitrogen waste from mammals or also thru natural means like nitrogen fixation or agriculture runoff water. High levels of Ammonia lead to a toxic buildup in internal tissue and blood in marine species leading to potential death. pH and temperature can affect the Ammonia toxicity to aquatic life. The ranges are from 0.05 to 8.0 ppm. Both the above kits are based on color comparison. They consist of a reagent NH1 bottle and a comparator tube along with a colorcomparator. They are extremely easy to use and can be used by anybody at any place.
