IMPORTANT NOTES:
  1. Although we are still mostly using Taylor reagents, the reagent set we use does NOT correspond exactly to any single Taylor kit. So, if you purchase Taylor refills, you MUST do so by reagent number, and not by kit number, if you want to be sure that you receive the right item.
  2. Taylor ships only two sizes of liquid reagents: 3/4 oz, and 2 oz. (They also ship refills in various other sizes.) Please note that ONLY the 3/4 oz size will fit in the PS233 / PS234 case. The bottles they use for the 2 oz size are two long for almost all the compartments in the PS233 / PS234 case.
  3. *In the past, all our reagents have been purchased from Taylor. However, with the PS234, in a few cases, we have purchased chemically identical reagents from lab supply houses, rather than from Taylor. Reagents marked with an asterisk (*) may be Taylor reagents, or they may be chemically identical reagents from another source. Taylor reagents -- if you get the number right -- should still work fine, however.
