The Lovibond Arsenic Test Kit is suitable for the determination of arsenic in drinking water. Arsenic in Canadian drinking water is generally less than 0.005 milligrams per liter (0.005 parts per million - ppm), although concentrations may be higher in some areas.This test kit detects Arsenic levels as low 0.005 mg/l .
Arsenic may enter lakes, rivers or underground water naturally, when mineral deposits or rocks containing arsenic dissolve. Arsenic may also get into water through the burning of fossil fuels (especially coal),metal production (such as gold and base metal mining), agricultural use (in pesticides and feed additives); or waste burning.
