Hi Ann,
The only certified formalin neutralizer that I know of is from Scigen.  They 
also sell the test kit.  Ask your company for their certification.. that the 
product actually works.
 Good luck,

Subject: [Histonet] Formaldehyde test kit question

We switched formalin neutralizing solution and I bought the Quantofix 
formaldehyde test kit to make sure it's working, however it does not mention 
what color is acceptable for neutralization. The options are 0-10-20- up to 200 
MG/L. should it be "0" for acceptable dumping? Also the instructions say to add 
10 drops of a sodium hydroxide solution to the solution being tested, wouldn't 
that change the Ph and make the results not as accurate. This kit is expensive 
if regular pH strips are better, let me know that too. Thanks for your help.
