The Salifert Test Kit is the only one offering this feature, measuring all naturally occurring iodine compounds and giving a reading of total iodine concentration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnlike many other test kits, the Salifert Iodine Profi-Test is free from interference from other elements found in saltwater, which means the results obtained are very accurate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor remains stable for several hours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale goes from 0.01 - 0.15ppm and optimum level is 0.06 mg\/L.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan provide up to 40 tests.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor marine use only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse of so-called time released iodine supplements or supplements containing organically bound\/complexed iodine species will give false results.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe presence of strong reducing substances such as ascorbic acid will also give false value.
