Indigo® low-cost nitrate & nitrite test strips provide quick qualitative nitrogen measurements for wastewater plants, bioreactors & teaching labs & can help track nitrification & denitrification trends.
Nitrate and nitrite monitoring plays a central role in managing biological processes in bioreactors, including nitrification, denitrification, and anaerobic digestion. Indigo® Nitrate-Nitrite Test Strips provide a fast, practical method for observing nitrogen trends during startup, process adjustments, and routine operation. In wastewater and biological treatment systems, rapid identification of nitrite accumulation or nitrate breakthrough helps operators diagnose microbial imbalance before performance or compliance is affected.
We've been selling nitrate-nitrite test strips since 2009. Buy fully documented Indigo® nitrate-nitrite test strips, 50 strips/vial. Guaranteed 3 year shelf life (dated back from expiration date "yyyy.mm.dd").
