8. Insert the vial into chamber, close the lid and select SCAN BLANK.<br />

9. Remove the vial from the colorimeter.<br />

vial (4312).<br />

11. Shake vigorously until powder dissolves completely.<br />

NOTE: If powder residue remains in the bottom of the vial after inverting<br />

NOTES: For best possible results, a reagent blank should be determined<br />

to account for any contribution to the test result by the reagent system.<br />

To determine the reagent blank, follow the above test procedure to scan<br />

a distilled or deionized water blank. Then follow the above procedure to<br />

perform the test on a distilled or deionized water sample. This test result<br />

is the reagent blank. Subtract the reagent blank from all subsequent test<br />

results of unknown samples. It is necessary to determine the reagent<br />

blank only when a new lot number of reagents are obtained.<br />

UDVs from opened pouches should be used promptly. Store unused vials from<br />

opened pouches in the Foil Storage Bag (9467) to extend the shelf life of the<br />

reagent. Generally, UDVs stored in the bag should be used within 10 days if<br />

the humidity is less than 50% and within 5 days if humidity is greater than<br />

50%. The Foil Storage Bag contains a desiccant pack with indicator. When<br />

the indicator in the window turns from blue to pink, the bag should be<br />

replaced.<br />
