• For more accurate results, determine a reagent blank value for each new lot of reagent. Follow the procedure using deionized
water in place of the sample. Subtract the reagent blank value from the final results or perform a reagent blank adjust. See the
instrument manual for more information on Running a Reagent Blank.
• Filter turbid samples using filter paper (Cat. No. 1894-57) and a funnel (Cat. No. 1083-67).
• After all reagents have been added, the presence of molybdenum will cause a yellow color to form.
