Litmus Solution Extra Pure is a high-quality, ready-to-use pH indicator solution designed for precise acid-base testing in laboratories and educational settings. Made from purified natural litmus dye, it changes color distinctly—red in acidic solutions and blue in alkaline solutions—making it an essential tool for quick and accurate pH assessments. Its extra pure formulation ensures consistent performance, clear color transitions, and reliability in analytical chemistry, biology experiments, and environmental monitoring. Ideal for titrations and classroom demonstrations, this solution should be stored in a cool, dark place to maintain stability and color accuracy.
Litmus Solution Extra Pure
Primary Uses
- Acid-Base Indicator:
- Used to visually detect pH: turns red in acidic solutions and blue in basic solutions, making it ideal for quick qualitative analysis.
- Titration Indicator (Simple Acid-Base Reactions):
- Employed in basic acid-base titrations where only endpoint indication (acidic or basic) is required.
Secondary Uses
- Teaching & Demonstrations:
- Frequently used in classrooms and labs to demonstrate pH changes in chemical reactions or biological processes.
- Microbiology Media Testing:
- Occasionally added to media or cultures to observe metabolic acid or base production.
- Environmental Field Testing:
- Convenient for portable pH testing of soil or water samples in field conditions.
