Water Testing
Water is fundamental to survival of life on Earth, and it is a priceless commodity. Statistically, 2/3rd of our planet is water but only a fraction of this water is potable and usable. Water-borne diseases may cause severe damage to life and that is why accurate physio-chemical tests should be conducted before using water.
Pollution from farms, residential lawns, overfilled sewage systems, trash, animal waste, nitrogen phosphorous mixes in water ways are some of the human activities adding to water pollution. On the other hand, factors like weather and meteorology floods due to climate change also result in water pollution. Both these factors result in risk of contamination and higher cost of water treatment. Additionally, large amounts of heavy metals and dangerous bacteria are released everyday into water resources from industries and households. Chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides resulting from agricultural activities also contaminate groundwater. Conclusively, it is very important for organizations, companies, factories, industries, and individuals to conduct water testing before further usage.

How to test water?
At least one color disk test kit is available for fluoride. However, portable digital colorimeters are often preferred because of concerns over accuracy. Ackvo Caddisfly, a testing system, recently described a colorimetric fluoride test that can be read by a smartphone app. Portable field testing options for arsenic are limited; this contaminant is best…
