| Cresol Purple Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | green crystalline powder | Uses | Acid-base indicator. | Uses | m-Cresol Purple acts as a pH indicator dye. It plays an important role in spectrophotometric pH measurements. It operates in the pH ranges 1.2 - 2.8 (red to yellow) and 7.4 - 9.0 (yellow to violet). Further, it is employed to stain epithelial cells and proteins. | Biochem/physiol Actions | m-Cresol purple is a pH indicator. It changes from red (pH 1.2) to yellow (2.8) and yellow (7.4) to purple (9.0). |
