Nitrate ReactaStick™ Detector*

Nitrate is used in fertilizers and some food-preservation processes and occurs naturally in foods and water. Testing helps identify results needing investigation in the context of the sample. ReactaStick screens prepared samples through a pink-to-red comparison at 3 minutes.

This focused chemical screen helps identify samples that warrant further investigation. Each pack contains only the selected detector type.
