NECi Offers Reliable, Safe Testing Alternatives for the Field and the Lab

We believe that you shouldn't have to use harsh acids, toxic reagents, or heavy metals to measure your environment, food quality, or the water you drink. Our aim is to make analytical chemistry safer for the user as well as the ecosystem in which labs and people operate. NECi's test kits and other enzyme products are green by design.

Whether testing in agriculture, the ocean, the classroom lab, industrial or research labs, NECi’s enzymes work in:

• fresh and salt water
• plant, soil and biological extracts
• human and animal food testing
• “groundwater containing tannins and humic acids” (USGS)
• and more

Biotechnology -- or enzymes-protein catalysts—create a more efficient testing method with reliable test results in the field and in the lab, at less cost and with more safety for the user and the environment!

Simplified kits for on-site testing of water, soils, and agricultural products give the non-professional chemist high quality data for sound decisions. For example, crop consultants need timely, reliable N results in soil and plants for Nutrient Management Plans, and NECi’s field Nitrate Test Kits give near lab-quality results in 30 minutes – no waiting for lab results. NECi expects to have phosphate test kits, as well as an updated computer-connected reader, available soon.

NECi's bulk enzyme products are reproducible, reliable reagents you can use for your method or product. Count on NECi for quality, with great specificity and selectivity.  In January 2012, NECi's nitrate detection reagents were granted Standard Method status with the US Geological Survey (USGS). Recent USGS methods I-2547-11 and I-2548-11 replace older methods for autoanalyzers that require packed bed cadmium reactors … using soluable and environmentally benign reagents.
