Thymol Blue Powder Description

It is brown-green crystalline powder with peculiar smell; Soluble in ethanol is yellow, soluble in dilute lye is blue, insoluble in water; The maximum absorption wavelength is 594 (376) nm.

Thymol blue ph range: pH1.2 (red) ~ 2.8 (yellow), 8.0 (yellow) ~ 9.6 (blue). Anionic surfactant indicator, under acidic conditions, it will turn reddish purple when it encounters anionic surfactant.

In Chemistry

Thymol blue is an important indicator in chemistry, it is widely used to determine whether a given solution is acidic or basic. It is frequently used in titration experiments to help identify the point of acid-base reaction. Additionally, this substance is also useful for detecting the presence of certain metals in a solution, including zinc, copper, and nickel. When thymol blue reacts with these metals, it forms a colored complex that can be easily observed and measured.

In Medicine

Beside its applications in chemistry, thymol blue is also used in medicine to determine the pH levels of various body fluids, such as urine and blood. In urinalysis, thymol blue is used to detect the pH of urine. Additionally, this substance is also useful in the detection of medical conditions such as alkalosis and acidosis, which can affect the pH of the blood. By carefully measuring the pH levels of blood samples using thymol blue, healthcare professionals can diagnose these conditions and plan appropriate treatments for their patients.

In Microbiology

In microbiology, thymol blue is an important tool for determining the pH of culture media. By analyzing the pH levels of these media using it, researchers can better understand the growth and metabolism of microorganisms. In particular, thymol blue is commonly used to differentiate between different bacterial species based on their ability to produce acid or alkaline products during fermentation. By carefully monitoring the color changes in the culture media over time, researchers can identify which bacterial species are present and make important inferences about their metabolic processes and other characteristics.
