Taylor DPD Reagent #2 Dropper Bottle, 3/4 oz | R-0002-A

This is the Taylor DPD #2 reagent replacement (PN: T-10-112) for water testing kits. This reagent is for determining chlorine levels and controlling chlorination of water without the use of orthotolidine. The bottle contains 60 mL or 2 oz. bottle of reagent and comes with a dropper.

Taylor formulates its reagents to remain effective for at least one year, with only very few exceptions (molybdenum indicator in liquid form is one; after four months old it should be tested against a standard periodically). As a general precaution, replace all reagents more than one year old, or at the beginning of a new testing season.

Features and Benefits:

• Storing reagents at a consistent temperature in the range if 36°–85°F (2°–29°C); extreme temperature fluctuation, say from a refrigerator to a hot car trunk, causes reagents to deteriorate
• Keeping them out of prolonged direct sunlight. (Note: their brown plastic bottles help protect very light-sensitive reagents.)
• Segregating reagents from containers of treatment chemicals
• Replacing caps immediately and tightening them carefully so that exposure to air and humidity is limited
• Avoiding switching bottle caps, placing bottle caps on soiled surfaces, repouring reagents into contaminated containers, or touching test strip pads
