: RE: CSMeasuring CS with a spectrophotometer or colorimeter Thanks Marshall, The pictures and plots are very informative. I believe you are right about trying to measure ppm without digesting the silver won't work. Your explanation has helped tremendously in understanding the theory and operation

I tried posting this once but if it posted it did not echo back to me. Jim, Actually I got interested in this after two posters here expressed an interest in lab testing of their CS. At least one using HVAC. Curious of what lab testing costs, I looked around for labs. Frank Keys appears the

A spec turns a sample into a plasma and measures refracted light shown through it at a given frequency. A colorometer uses a pre calibrated chemical reaction pillow specific to silver and compares colors the solution turns with the chemical reaction. ode At 05:40 PM 12/17/2008 -0600,

From what I can gather, to measure ppm with a spectrophotometer you must measure a solution with a known ppm first. You then measure the unknown solution and then using a formula you can calculate the ppm of the unknown solution. If you have multiple known solutions of CS of different ppms, you
