Soil Sample Preparation Solution, 250 mL, Hanna Instruments, HI7051M

Hanna Instruments® Soil Sample Preparation Solution, 250 mL, HI7051M

Features:

• Appearance: colorless liquid
• CAS Nos.: does not contain hazardous materials
• Electrolyte solution used in applications involving pH measurement of soil samples
• pH of soil is most commonly measured as either a water slurry or electrolyte slurry, where a set ratio of soil:solvent (solvent is water or electrolyte solution) is chosen
• Use of electrolyte solution is usually preferred as it is less affected by soil electrolyte concentration and provides more consistent measurement for soils whose salt content may fluctuate due to seasonal conditions or crop residues
• Common ratios used for soil pH are 1:1, 1:2 or 1:5, where more solvent than soil is used when soil sample contains high amounts of organic matter or clay
• Lot number and expiration date clearly marked on label of air tight bottle with tamper-proof seal to ensure solution quality
• Prepared with reagent grade chemicals
• Provides consistent pH measurements of various soils
