Industrial & Environment 1 Test Kit
25 vials
The energy patterns of many of the chemicals which we do not know by name but are widely present in the
environment: acetaldehyde, chlorobenzene, chlorohexane, nitrobenzene, polyvinyl acetate, styrene, toluene,
xylene, etc.
This kit contains powerful chemicals that are present throughout our environment, so that we are frequently
in contact with them as we go about our daily business. They may be in the air we breathe, the food we eat,
the water we drink, things we touch, the beauty products we use,etc.
