What is Phenolphthalein (Biochemistry Grade)? Phenolphthalein, a high-purity reagent with the formula (C₂₀H₁₄O₄), is an essential compound widely used in acid-base titrations, quality control testing, and industrial processes that require precise pH monitoring. Known for its distinct phenolphthalein colour change, this versatile phenolphthalein indicator transitions from colourless in acidic solutions to pink in basic solutions, ensuring accurate and reliable results. Supplied as a white or slightly yellow crystalline powder, it adheres to strict quality standards, making it a staple in analytical and research applications.

Biochemistry Grade: This product is of the highest purity, ensuring consistent and reliable performance, particularly in biochemistry.

Shipped from Manchester, UK Facility: Our Phenolphthalein 99% is sourced and packaged using non-toxic, chemical-resistant containers, ensuring reliable quality for our customers.

Consistent Quality: We carefully source Phenolphthalein (Biochemistry Grade) to ensure reliable and consistent performance, ensuring reproducibility.

Frequent Uses

Acid-Base Titration

Used as an indicator in acid-base titrations to detect the endpoint, where a colour change from colourless to pink signifies the presence of a base.

Biochemical Assays

Employed in biochemical assays, where it helps detect changes in pH during enzymatic reactions, aiding in the study of enzymes and metabolic pathways.

pH Measurement in Biological Systems

Used in laboratory experiments to monitor pH levels in biological samples, particularly in studies involving cell cultures or biochemical reactions.

Spectrophotometric Analysis

Used in spectrophotometric methods to monitor changes in pH, where the colour change of phenolphthalein can be detected using a spectrophotometer.

Buffer Capacity Studies

Applied in studies to assess the buffering capacity of biological or chemical solutions, aiding in the understanding of how systems resist pH changes.

  • Acid-base indicator in titrations to determine the endpoint of an acid-base reaction
