(1) Amines give the same discolouration with Ammonia.
(2) If Hydrogen Sulphide layer was wholly discoloured by Hydrogen Sulphide, Carbon Monoxide layer may be interfered.
(3) If Nitrogen Dioxide is higher than 60 ppm CO layer discolours red.
(4) (Inlet) means the approximate gas concentration discolour the inlet of the layer.
(5) (Whole layer) means the approximate gas concentration discolour the reagent of the whole layer.
