Uses:
1. Live staining of protozoa.
2. Acid base indicator, pH color change range 4.4 (red) -6.2 (yellow).
3. Titrate ammonia, weak organic bases, and alkaloids, but not applicable to organic acids other than oxalic acid and picric acid.
4. It can be mixed with bromocresol green and methylene blue to form a mixed indicator to
shorten the color gamut and improve the sensitivity of color change.
5. Adsorption indicators for precipitation titration, such as using thorium nitrate to titrate fluoride ions.
6. Verify free chlorine, chlorite and other oxidants.
