Product Overview
Dichlorofluorescein indicator (0.1% w/v) is a highly sensitive pH indicator solution designed for precise acid-base titrations and analytical applications. This laboratory-grade reagent transitions from colorless to fluorescent green under alkaline conditions, providing clear visual endpoints in titration experiments. The solution is prepared in a stable aqueous medium, ensuring consistent performance and long shelf life when stored properly. Its low concentration (0.1% w/v) offers optimal sensitivity without compromising accuracy, making it suitable for both qualitative and quantitative analyses. The indicator is compatible with most aqueous systems and does not interfere with common laboratory reagents. Its fluorescence properties enhance detection in low-light conditions, improving readability in various experimental setups. This product adheres to strict quality control standards, guaranteeing reproducibility in research and testing environments. The solution comes ready-to-use, eliminating the need for additional preparation steps. Its chemical stability ensures reliable results across multiple applications, from routine laboratory work to specialized analytical procedures.
FAQs
1. What is the pH range for dichlorofluorescein indicator?
The indicator transitions between pH 4.0 (colorless) to pH 6.4 (fluorescent green), with optimal sensitivity around pH 5.2.
2. Can this indicator be used with non-aqueous solvents?
It is primarily designed for aqueous systems, though limited compatibility exists with polar organic solvents like ethanol or methanol.
3. How should this solution be stored for maximum shelf life?
Store in a cool, dark place at 15-25°C in the original tightly sealed container to prevent degradation from light exposure.
4. What alternatives exist for similar pH detection ranges?
Bromocresol green or methyl red can serve as alternatives, though they lack the fluorescence properties of dichlorofluorescein.
5. Does this indicator require any special disposal procedures?
Follow standard laboratory chemical disposal protocols; neutralize before disposal if required by local regulations.
