Bromothymol Blue sodium salt is a pH indicator primarily used for research. It is integral to pH indicator systems, often with potassium phosphate as a buffer, for various characterization and comparison methods. This indicator is particularly effective for direct determination of 2-keto-L-gulonic acid (2-KLG) production due to its distinct color change and optimal pH range of 6.5-7.5, shifting from blue to yellow. It is recommended to store this product protected from light.
- Functions as a pH indicator in research applications.
- Enables direct determination of 2-keto-L-gulonic acid (2-KLG) production.
- Exhibits an obvious color change from blue to yellow in the pH range of 6.5-7.5.
- Utilized in pH-shift assays.
- Facilitates visualization of acidification caused by _K. vulgare_ 07 mutants on agar plates.
