NOTE:
Place Dispenser Cap (0692) on *Mixed Acid Reagent (V-6278).
Save this cap for refill reagents.
Nitrites can cause serious interference in the Nitrate test. To obtain the actual
nitrate-nitrogen concentration, follow Procedures A & B. Subtract the nitrite
reading obtained in Procedure B (as ppm nitrate-nitrogen) from the nitrate
reading obtained in Procedure A (as nitrate-nitrogen).
The best results are obtained when the sample and reagents are at 23 ±2°C.
