Basic Information

Why Choose HEALTH MATE Peroxide Test?

Peroxide is a multi-purpose disinfectant which, due to its excellent antiviral, bactericidal, and fungicidal action, is widely used in industry. Here, HEALTH MATE Peroxide test strips are ideal for controlling residual low-level peroxide after disinfection—for example, in drinking water, pools, and hot tubs where hydrogen peroxide was used as a disinfectant. The peroxide concentration is measured semi-quantitatively by visual comparison of the reaction zone of the test strip with the fields of a color scale.

Product Description

Specimen type: Peroxide
Reading Time: 10 seconds
Storage Condition: 2 - 30 ℃
Shelf Life: 24 months from the manufacturing date

How to use?

1. Dip the test strip into a sample for 1-2 seconds
2. Remove excess liquid
3. Compare results with the color chart after 10 seconds

Pro tip : The color development of the test strip may change after the value has been taken. It is therefore crucial to evaluate the coloration within the prescribed timescale in order to achieve correct results.

Quick FAQ

How should I store the test strips?

Store the test strips in the original bottle at temperatures between 2°C and 30°C in a cool, dry place. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use and protect the strips from moisture and light. Do not store the strips in a refrigerator or freezer. The product remains stable until the expiration date printed on the label when stored as directed.

How do I perform the test correctly?

Dip the test strip into the test solution for 1 second. Gently tap the strip onto absorbent material to remove excess liquid. Wait for 10 seconds, then immediately compare the test field with the color chart provided on the bottle. Select the value that most closely matches the developed color. For accurate results, the strip must be evaluated within the specified reading time, as the color may continue to change afterward.

Can I reuse a test strip?

No. Each test strip is intended for single use only. After testing, wrap the used strip in tissue or gauze and dispose of it properly to prevent misuse.

What should I avoid when handling the test strips?

Do not touch the reagent pad on the test strip. Remove only the number of strips required for testing and close the bottle immediately after removing a strip. Do not use deteriorated, discolored, or blackened test strips. Keep the desiccant inside the container. If the desiccant is accidentally swallowed, drink plenty of water. Keep the product out of reach of children.

Can other substances affect the test result?

Yes. The test can be used in solutions with a pH range of 2-12 without interference. However, the presence of other strong oxidizing agents, such as chlorine, may also produce positive results and affect the accuracy of the peroxide measurement.

Key Parameters & Clinical Significance

Hydrogen peroxide exhibits strong bactericidal, virucidal, sporicidal, and fungicidal properties.
It acts by generating destructive hydroxyl radicals that attack essential cellular components.
Residue may cause eye or skin irritation, making accurate concentration control essential.
