This test allows the quick and easy determination of potassium in solutions. It includes all necessary reagents so that the measurement can be started immediately. A reliable result is obtained within 1 minute.
The natural potassium content in ground water is generally about 1– 2 mg/l K. Higher values may indicate fecal contaminations, but can also originate from potassium fertilizers. For the growth of plants and animals potassium is an essential factor. Especially in agriculture the determination of potassium therefore gains increasing importance.
