AC-15138 - cresol-red-indicator-grade-pure | 1733-12-6

<p>Cresol red is commonly used with lead acetate for the detection of urease after PAGE. It is also used as an indicator with the following transition intervals: pH 1.8 (orange) to pH 2.0 (yellow); pH 7.0 (yellow) to pH 8.8 (violet). Cresol Red is used as a tracking dye in DNA, RNA (agarose) and protei</p>

<p>Cresol red is a weak diacidic molecule and an anionic dye largely used in genetic and biochemical studies. Cresol red is commonly used to measure the pH of aqueous solutions also from environmental samples, e.g. seawater (Byrne, 1989). Cresol red shows an increased protonation in acidic water-based solutions at low temperatures (Heger, 2006). Cresol red can be used to introduce pH-sensing features to sensing materials, such as, optical fibres or nanoparticles (Islam, 2021).</p>
