Description

REACTASTICK™ BY CHEMSEE · CS-DIP-FRM

Formaldehyde ReactaStick™ Detector

Formaldehyde is used in resins, adhesives and biological specimen preservation. Unexpected residues or suspected addition in food and liquid samples warrant investigation. ReactaStick screens the prepared sample through a pink-to-purple color response, compared at 3 minutes.

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