Water Purity

How To Select The Right Water Purity For Your Lab Applications

5 Mar 2020
- by ELGA Editorial Team

Pure Water Is Used Almost Everywhere In The Lab

Water is used almost everywhere, from being a key reagent in your day-to-day experiments, tests and assays, to performing those ‘behind the scenes’ functions like autoclaving, cleaning and water bath set-up.

Knowing exactly which type of water purity your particular application requires can take time to go away and research – time that could be better spent at the bench. To help you make the most of your valuable time, we’ve assembled this quick reference table enabling you to easily match your application with the required water quality.

And for more information about the different types of water, check out this guide here too.
