Taylor Base Demand Reagent (BDR) #6 is used to measure the amount of alkali material required to raise pH to a predetermined level. This can be accomplished by use of a base titration procedure, referred to as a Base Demand Test.

• Storing reagents at a consistent temperature in the range of 36degree-85degree F (2degree-29degree C); extreme temperature fluctuation, say from a refrigerator to a hot car trunk, causes reagents to deteriorate
• Keeping them out of prolonged direct sunlight
• Segregating reagents from containers of treatment chemicals
• Replacing caps immediately and tightening them carefully so that exposure to air and humidity is limited
• Avoiding switching bottle caps, placing bottle caps on soiled surfaces, repouring reagents into contaminated containers, or touching test strip pads
