Water testing is important when maintaining a pool or hot tub to make sure the water is safe to be in. The water can end up having too many or too little chemicals in it which can affect the pools hygiene and bacteria levels. The most frequently tested parameters are pH, chlorine (free and total), bromine, alkalinity and calcium hardness. Camlab have created water testing kits for testing thes...
Congratulations on your new Spa or Hot Tub and we are sure that it will give you hours of fun and enjoyment! To ensure that your tub is kept in tip-top condition and everyone using it is kept safe it will be necessary to test and treat the water. We are often asked why do I need to test for and what should I be measuring. Hopefully, the following guide will help:
You need to test the water ...
Instachlor tablets by Palintest are rapidly dissolving chlorine tablets that can be used for a number of disinfection and water treatment applications. They contain sodium dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC) which is an organic chlorine donor that when added to water, releases a given amount of chlorine into solution. The applications of Instachlor are wide ranging from personal water disinfection for...
In healthcare, a number of disinfectants are used when cleaning equipment. Monitoring of the disinfectant's potency prior to cleaning and for presence of a residue following cleaning and rinsing is a key part of maintaining an effective cleaning system while not incurring any health issues. The table below shows a range of Macherey Nagel's QUANTOFIX dip and read tests which allow for the quick,...
The Ultrameter II 6PIIfce from Myron L is a versatile, fully waterproof multi-parameter meter, which can measure the following parameters: conductivity, TDS, resistivity, pH, ORP, free chlorine and temperature. The ultrameter has many applications including pool monitoring and measuring the conductivity of ultrapure water.

Palintest have announced that the ChloroSense, ChlordioXense, ChlordioX Plus, ChloroSense HR and PAASense units have been discontinued and have been replaced by the Kemio. The Kemio is a multi-parameter next generation instrument capable of measuring chlorine (free and total), chlorine dioxide, chlorite and peracetic acid (PAA) in water. You can read our post on the feature of the Kemio here.Â

Measuring high levels of free chlorine can be problematic; Colorimeters used to test free chlorine are based on a colour change test; The DPD 1 (N,N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine) method for residual chlorine was first introduced by Palin in 1957. Over the years it has become the most widely used method for determining free chlorine in water and wastewater. Hach introduced its first Chlorine te...
Disinfection using DPD
Chlorine is used as a primary disinfectant because of its effectiveness in killing potentially harmful organisms. It forms hypochlorous acid in pool water whose effectiveness at disinfecting is influenced by the other chemicals that are in the pool - primarily pH and the amount of waste present.
Hypochlorous acid that has not reacted with bather waste is “free chlo...
When fresh produce like salad products are processed, the disinfection is often performed by adding hypochlorite solution to the wash water.
Several standards state this must be maintained at 50mg/L or greater concentration - a very high level in terms of measurement for quality control.
Palintest offer two methods which are able to detect chlorine at such high levels for ongoing quality ...
Hach's new Portable Parallel Analysis, the SL 1000, allows for more efficient, accurate and simultaneous multi-parameter water quality analysis. One unit can perform up to four colorimetric and two probe-based measurements in parallel. For years traditional water testing has meant dealing with powder pillows and handling glass vials. Even experienced testers can introduce variability int...
Thanks for sharing such a great information.. It really helpful to me.. I always search to read the quality content and finally i found this in you post. keep it up!
I came across your article about "DPD Tablets" on Camlab Info, and it's a valuable resource for anyone seeking information about water testing and analysis using DPD tablets. Your explanation of their usage and significance in water quality monitoring is quite informative.
This article on nanocolor tube tests is a gem for analytical enthusiasts. The idea of zero calibration is intriguing, and your detailed explanation makes it accessible. The step-by-step process helps demystify the technique for beginners like me. The use cases you've highlighted, particularly in...
Grant have introduced the new Controlled Rate Freeze Thaw (CRFT), which is a liquid nitrogen and cryogen free controlled rate freeze and thaw system for cryopreservation in a wide range of applications. Cryopreservation is a process where biological materials such as cells, tissues...
A dipslide is a means of testing the microbial content of liquids. This is a common method of monitoring and measuring microbial activity within many systems and commonly cooling systems. Usually the use of a dipslide is the first line of defence for the testing of microbial issues that could be...
Purchasing items using donated funds without the burden of VAT will now save many Millions of pounds each year which can be put to better use in advancing scientific knowledge to provide new treatments and cures that will shape the medicines of the future.
Working with pressure/vacuum conditions in the lab is common but not all products are designed to withstand this. Products with appropriate geometry and wall thickness are suitable for working safely with pressure. For example, filtering flasks, desiccators, or flat flange vessels, as well as...
