Individual Test Kits:

Nitrite, Sodium (Individual Test Kits)

Nitrite, Sodium: Sodium nitrite is titrated using one of two methods. After acidifying the sample, permanganate will oxidize nitrite. When all of the nitrite is oxidized, the permanganate turns the sample pink. Ceric Ammonium Nitrate (CAN) also oxidizes the nitrite in the presence of ferroin indicator. The endpoint is orange to blue. The CAN method is preferred if glycol is present.
