NITRACHEK is used by Schools & Field Study Councils in the UK for Environmental and Health studies with GCSE & 'A' level students, to rapidly determine levels of Nitrates in rivers and streams.

Areas of investigation:

• Organic vs inorganic farming and the effects of over fertilisation of crops
• The Nitrate Cycle and the effects on the Ecosystem
• Nitrates measurements in:- Soil, Plants & Water

An excellent booklet has been published by the FSC explaining all about Nitrates in our environment & how to test for them using various methods including the Nitrachek instrument.
