Turbidity Standard Solution 1500 NTU is a high-purity, pharmacopeial-grade solution used in pharmaceutical, environmental, and analytical laboratories for the calibration and testing of turbidimeters and nephelometers that measure high turbidity levels in aqueous samples.
🏭⚗️ Production
Produced under strictly controlled conditions to ensure high purity, accurate turbidity, and minimal contamination. The solution is prepared using stabilized formazin or equivalent polymeric dispersions to achieve a precise turbidity of 1500 NTU and is supplied in sealed, light-protected, chemically resistant containers to prevent particle settling, contamination, or degradation. Quality is verified according to pharmacopeial and analytical standards for turbidity stability, uniformity, and reproducibility.
🔬 Properties
A uniform, white to slightly opalescent suspension with a defined turbidity of 1500 NTU. Stable under proper storage conditions but may undergo particle settling or aggregation if exposed to extreme temperatures, strong light, or prolonged storage; gentle mixing restores uniformity.
🧪 Applications
Used in pharmaceutical, environmental, and water quality laboratories for the calibration and accuracy testing of instruments measuring high turbidity samples. Ideal for validating nephelometric and turbidimetric methods in wastewater analysis, raw water characterization, industrial process monitoring, and research applications requiring high turbidity standards.
⚠️ Safety
Generally considered low-hazard but should be handled with care to avoid ingestion, inhalation of aerosols, or contact with skin and eyes. Wear appropriate protective gloves, goggles, and lab coat when handling. Store in a cool, dry place in tightly sealed, light-protected containers. Dispose of according to laboratory and environmental safety regulations.
