A Letter from a student about her science project using a Simpltek water test.

To: simpltek.com Subject: I used your E-Coli test kits Hello Mr. -------, My mother sent an email to you a couple of months ago because I needed some test kits for my science project and because she is unemployed we have to becareful with money. You were very nice to my mom and sold them to her at a discount. I wanted to say thank you because your test kits helped me win first place. :) It was fun doing the project and using the test kits was the best part (next to my blue ribbon). I am sending you a picture of my presentation board with the blue ribbon on it. My mom got really excited and started to cry because she is working really hard to get me into our magnet high school (it has marine biology curiculum). I smiled until my cheeks hurt! :) Thank you!

Great Reasons to use Simpltek water test kits for science projects: 1. Biological test kits     • only test that measures LOG-Phase growth only (active bacteria)     • the Total Microbe, Coliform and E-Coli tests are true broth cultures     • tests are simple to use - no errors using calibrated loops     • superior sample size - 7,000 times larger than a 1 ml calibrated loop     • greater accuracy than an agar plate, dipstick or test strip     • result in less than 24 hours - positives could show in 4 hours     • great for contamination-free field testing (rugged design)     • presence/absence test or quantitative measurement by monitoring color change over time     • indoor air quality test, dry surface test     • food and food handling test, soil test 2. Chemical test kits     • Ammonia Nitrogen, Chlorine, Hardness Level, Iron, Phosphate, Zinc and Nitrate/Nitrite tests     • ampoules provide a superior sample size     • ideal for contamination-free field testing     • quick results - results in 2-10 minutes depending on the test     • colormetric - match ampoule color to color results chart
