Description

Methyl red sodium salt is a dye that is used to measure the concentration of ammonia in aqueous solutions. It is also used as an indicator for the presence of free amines and hydrazine. Methyl red sodium salt has been shown to have antimicrobial properties, which may be due to its inhibition of the cell wall synthesis. This compound has been used to treat wastewater and can be used for the treatment of human serum. The chemical stability of this compound has been studied using Langmuir adsorption isotherms. The optimum concentration for methyl red sodium salt was found to be around 8mg/mL, with no significant change in adsorption after 24 hours at room temperature.
