TIPS FOR AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENT
The instructions listed below should be carefully followed during testing to ensure most accurate results.
• Color or suspended matter in large amounts may cause interference, and should be removed by
treatment with active carbon and filtration: refere to Sample Preparation Chapter (page 17).
• Ensure the cuvette is filled correctly: the liquid in the cuvette forms a convexity on the top; the bottom
of this convexity must be at the same level as the 10 mL mark.
COLLECTING AND MEASURING SAMPLES
• In order to measure exactly 0.5 mL of reagent with the 1 mL syringe:
(a) push the plunger completely into the syringe and insert the tip into the solution.
(b) pull the plunger up until the lower edge of the seal is exactly on the 0.0 mL mark.
