Brand:  Macherey-Nagel™ 970002

Product Code. 10044293

Description

BioFix™ N-Tox is an amperometric method of determining the specific retardation effect of the substances contained in a sample on nitrite oxidation in connection with microbial nitrification with the aid of defined bacterial strains, preferably of the genus Nitrobacter. The results are specified as % inhibition of oxygen consumption in the sample solution in comparison to a non-inhibited control solution.
