About This Product
Nessler cylinders are used in matched sets: a sample and a series of standards are made up to the same mark and viewed from above against a white surface to match the colour. They are used in water testing for ammonia and in other colour-comparison methods.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Nessler Cylinder have a flat optical bottom?
