As a naturally occurring element, Arsenic is widely distributed in the Earth’s crust. In the natural environment it is most frequently present as inorganic arsenic compound in combination with Sulphur or Oxygen. Organic arsenic compounds can be used as pesticides.
Arsenic is toxic and causes skin diseases, keratosis and melanomas. Therefore, arsenic levels in drinking water have to be monitored thoroughly.
The WHO recommends a threshold value for drinking water of 0,01 mg/l. This concentration can reliably be monitored with QUANTOFIX^® Arsenic 10.
