Testing For Lead In Drinking Water

Lead in drinking water poses serious health risks, especially for children. Governments have regulations for water testing, but challenges persist globally. Lead exposure, even in small amounts, is harmful and can come from various sources, including paint, soil, food, and water. Common causes of lead in water include cost-cutting measures during water production, distribution, and treatment.

Testing for lead is crucial, but low-cost options like test strips may lack precision, putting pressure on laboratories to process samples quickly. Kemio™ Heavy Metals offers a cost-effective solution for screening lead and cadmium in drinking water, providing immediate results without the delays of traditional laboratory testing. It is user-friendly, doesn't require specialized training, and follows EPA-approved methods, ensuring accuracy within WHO guidelines.
