General description

Phenol red belongs to the class of triphenylmethane dyes and is widely used in the textile industry.

Application

Phenol red solution has been used:
  • as a tracer dye for microinjection of zebrafish eggs
  • as a component of the mMW medium for the preparation of mouse embryos
  • in the preparation of versene-ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution
  • as a pH indicator in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle medium (DMEM) during glycolytic stress (GST) tests and mitochondrial stress tests (MST) to evaluate metabolic function in cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phenol red solution acts as a pH indicator for the culture medium.Phenol red solution acts as a pH indicator for the culture medium that turns yellow at a pH of 6.4 or lower and changes into red at a pH of 8.2 or higher. It enables a fast and simple assessment of the culture′s health. In addition to its application as a pH indicator in culture mediums, Phenol red is used to detect human peroxidase enzyme activity, as well as cellular hydrogen peroxide levels, in various experiments.

Features and Benefits

High-quality, endotoxin-tested solution, suitable for mammalian cell culture.

Preparation Note

Prepared in Dulbecco′s Phosphate Buffered Saline.

Recent advances in super-resolution microscopy and fluorescence bioimaging allow exploring previously inaccessible biological processes. To this end, there is a need for novel fluorescent probes with specific features in size, photophysical properties, colloidal and optical stabilities, as well as biocompatibility
