The Amity PAA MEC Test Strips are designed for the routine testing of the strength of working solutions of Amity PAA RTU (Ready-to-Use) disinfection products. These test strips provide a simple, effective, and cost-efficient method to ensure that the disinfectant solution maintains its minimum effective concentration (MEC) of peracetic acid (PAA).

Features

• Simple Test Procedure: Easy-to-use strips that require no complex equipment or training.
• Cost-Effective: Eliminates the need for expensive laboratory analytical equipment and reduces the reliance on bulk or specialist chemicals.
• Accurate Results: The test paper is impregnated with a chemical preparation based on potassium iodide, which reacts with peracetic acid to produce a color change proportional to the disinfectant's strength.
• Quick Response: Results are obtained within seconds of dipping the strip into the disinfectant solution.
• Non-Reusable: Each test strip is designed for single use, ensuring accurate and contamination-free results.
• Long Shelf Life: Test strips have a shelf life of not less than 24 months when stored in their supply vials under clean, dry conditions at temperatures between 4°C and 30°C (39°F – 86°F).
• Colorimetric Comparison: The color change on the test pad is compared to a color chart provided on the container vial, allowing for precise determination of peracetic acid concentration.
• Health and Safety Compliance: Users are advised to follow standard laboratory safety practices, including protecting eyes, face, and skin from contact with test solutions and active pads.

These test strips are an essential tool for maintaining the efficacy of peracetic acid-based disinfectants, ensuring compliance with product technical specifications, and optimizing disinfection processes.
