General description

Method: photometric 0.010 - 5.00 mg/l Fe Spectroquant®
This Spectroquant® Iron test allows the accurate quantification of iron ions in various waters. All iron ions are reduced to iron(II) ions by ascorbic acid.
In a buffered medium these react with 2,2’-bipyridine to form a red complex that is determined photometrically. Without the addition of ascorbic acid (reagent Fe-1K), the test measures only iron(II).
MQuant® test strips can be used for pre-testing a sample in an economic and quick way to estimate the iron concentration and a possible dilution factor prior to using a quantitative method such as the Spectroquant® test.
All our Cell and Reagent Test Kits are equipped with the unique Live ID (2D barcode) which allows seamless method recognition and contains essential information such as lot number, expiry date, and automatic calibration updates.
The Spectroquant® Cell Tests come with prefilled 16 mm round cells as well as all the required reagents to perform the analysis according to the procedure described in the accompanying instruction leaflet.

Application


  • Identification and Characterisation of Endophytic Bacteria from Coconut (Cocos nucifera) Tissue Culture.: This study identifies and characterizes endophytic bacteria in coconut tissue culture, employing iron tests to understand bacterial interactions and their potential benefits in plant tissue cultures (Salo et al., 2020).

  • Viral eradication restores normal iron status in chronic hepatitis C patients with abnormal iron studies.: The research demonstrates that eradication of hepatitis C virus can restore normal iron levels in patients with abnormal iron studies, highlighting the role of iron tests in monitoring treatment efficacy (Hasan et al., 2020).

  • Prevalence of Salmonella in poultry processing environments in wet markets in Penang and Perlis, Malaysia.: This study investigates the prevalence of Salmonella in poultry processing environments, using iron tests to assess bacterial contamination and improve food safety measures (Nidaullah et al., 2017).

  • Primary care requests for anaemia chemistry tests in Spain: potential iron, transferrin and folate over-requesting.: The study analyzes primary care requests for anemia-related chemistry tests in Spain, suggesting potential over-requesting of iron, transferrin, and folate tests, and recommending guidelines for more efficient use of these tests (Salinas et al., 2017).

  • Peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis due to Halomonas hamiltonii: A first case report.: This case report details a rare instance of peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis caused by Halomonas hamiltonii, utilizing iron tests to investigate the infection and provide treatment insights (Yeo et al., 2016).

Protocols

The iron test enables quantification of iron ions in various waters. Iron ions are reduced to iron(II) ions that react with a triazine derivative to form a red-violet complex that is measured photometrically.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
