Summary

The Good

High technical reproducibility, clear instructions, ability to automate using Analyzer I instrument

The Bad

Standard AnalyzerI results output is clunky, mixes text and numeric.

The Bottom Line

This kit is robust, reproducible and easy to use in the lab. It can be used without the purchase of an expensive instrument, making it accessible to labs with a standard colorimetric plate reader.
