MetPAD™ and MetPLATE™ - heavy metal toxicity test kitsMetPAD and MetPLATE
MetPAD™ and MetPLATE™ are toxicity test kits specific for detecting heavy metal toxicity in environmental samples, including water, wastewater, sediments, soils, biosolids, and metal hyperaccumulating plants.

 

The MetPLATE kit contains freeze-dried test bacteria, an enzyme substrate, buffer, dilution moderately hard water, a Cu positive control, and a 96-well microplate for enzyme assay.

The MetPAD kit contains freeze-dried test bacteria, buffer, dilution moderately hard water, a Cu positive control, and a pad containing the enzyme substrate.

Both tests are based on the specific inhibition of beta-galactosidase by heavy metals.
