Introduction
Product Definition
The C15 Phenol Blue Reagent (10ml) is a water quality testing reagent used to quickly determine weak acidity/alkalinity of water samples, based on the color-changing principle of Bromothymol Blue. During use, add drops of the reagent to the water sample; the resulting color change gives a preliminary indication of the sample's acid-base tendency. It is suitable for rapid daily screening of drinking water, industrial water, and aquaculture water.
Product Features
- Rapidly determines weakly acidic/alkaline water samples with intuitive color changes, convenient for on-site use.
- Measurement range covers pH 6.0-7.6, suitable for testing weakly acidic/alkaline water near neutral.
- 10ml dropper bottle packaging, approximately 100 tests per bottle, meeting daily needs.
- Compact bottle size (height 6cm, diameter 2cm), weighs only 8.9g, easy to carry.
- Suitable for various water types, including drinking water, industrial water, and aquaculture water.

FAQ
Q: What does the C15 Phenol Blue Reagent mainly detect?
A: It is mainly used to determine whether a water sample is weakly acidic or weakly alkaline, suitable for rapid screening of drinking water, industrial water, and aquaculture water.
Q: What is the measurement range?
A: The measurement range is pH 6.0-7.6, corresponding to the color change interval of Bromothymol Blue.
Q: How many tests can one 10ml bottle perform?
A: Approximately 100 tests, depending on the sample volume used each time.
Q: How does the color change during testing?
A: Acidic samples turn yellow/yellow-green, near-neutral samples turn green, and alkaline samples turn blue/blue-green; they can be compared with a color reference.
Q: Can it be used for drinking water testing?
A: Yes, this product is applicable to drinking water, industrial water, and aquaculture water.
