PH METER STRIPS

 Product Description
pH Meter Strips, also known as pH indicator strips or litmus strips, are thin strips of paper or plastic impregnated with pH-sensitive dyes that change color in response to the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. These strips provide a quick, convenient, and cost-effective method to measure the pH level of liquids in laboratories, educational settings, and industrial processes. They are widely used for routine pH testing in chemistry, biology, environmental monitoring, water treatment, and quality control applications. The color change on the strips can be compared against a color chart to determine the approximate pH value of the tested solution.

Uses
