Abstract

The invention is directed to a testing and measuring device for colorimetrically detecting hydride gases on a carrier which is impregnated with a solution of glycol and with a salt as an indicator. This measuring device is improved in that its long-term stability is increased and the detection of especially the smallest quantities is made possible by a clearly recognizable color change. For this purpose, only a salt, palladium chloride or palladium tetramine chloride, is present in the solution in addition to the glycol.
