Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity and accuracy of your tests, store the reagents in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and out of the reach of children. After each use, rinse the glass vials thoroughly with deionized or distilled water to prevent mineral buildup or cross-contamination from previous tests. Ensure that the comparator block is kept clean and free of water spots. When performing tests, ensure that you hold the reagent dropper vertically to maintain consistent droplet size, as this directly affects the color development in the vial.
