ORGANO-MS Test Kit Sampling Instructions
READ THE ENTIRE INSTRUCTION FIRST PRIOR STARTING.
1 - Prepare for the Testing

Please read through the entire Instructions first, and then continue with step #2.
Prepare everything for sampling first.
2 - Take a Picture of the Bottle Sticker & Shipping Label

It is extremely important to take a picture of the Sticker attached to the Bottle and the Shipping label for future tracking between you and the Laboratory arrival in Austria.
The Sticker code on the Bottle is required in order to register the Sample in the system, and for future evidence that no typo was done during registration.
3 - Rinsing the Syringe a few times

Unpack and rinse the Syringe 3-4 times with Tankwater WITHOUT the Filter.
Then fill the Syringe with Aquarium/Sampling Water.
4 - Attach the Filter to the Syringe

Attach the included Filter to the Syringe.
- Do not try to fill/pull water with the Syringe with the Filter already on the tip.
Discard the Filter after sampling, and do not reuse these for other Water testing or sampling.
5 - Discard the first 5ml out of the Syringe

Discard the first 5ml back to the Aquarium or dispose.
This step does rinse the filter for subsequent sampling.
6 - Fill the Sample Bottle with filtered water

Now open the Lid of the Sample Bottle, and fill with sample water.
You have to refill the Syringe in this step, remember to remove the filter to refill the Syringe.
Keep the Syringes after sampling, they make a useful tool on the daily Chores on the Aquarium. To disinfect these Syringes, place them empty and apart in a clean Microwave at high (900W-1200W) for 1 minute individually.
7 - Pack Sampling Bottle into the Polybag

When the Sampling Bottle is filled with water, close the lid securely, place it into the enclosed smaller rectangular Polybag and close the Ziploc.
Leave the air in the bag, this will provide additional cushioning during transportation.
