| use | cresol purple is the main use of fresh tissue stains (such as tumor, nerve tissue, Nissl granule, blood in vivo staining, etc.) redox indicator. used as acid-base indicator acid-base indicator, pH1.2 (red) ~ 2.8 (yellow),pH7.4 (brown yellow) ~ 9.0 (purple). acid-base indicator, pH 1.2 (red) ~ 2.8 (yellow),pH 7.4 (yellow) ~ 9.0 (red purple) |
| production method | 1. dry m-cresol and o-sulfonyl benzoyl anhydride are heated to 100~105 ℃ under stirring for 0.5~1h, heating is stopped, phosphorus oxychloride and anhydrous zinc chloride are slowly added in different times under continuous stirring, the temperature is strictly controlled, and condensation reaction is carried out at 90~100 ℃ for 6~8h: after the reaction, cool, add water to heat to 70~80 ℃, slowly add industrial sodium carbonate, keep the temperature for 5~6h, let it stand and filter. The filtrate is neutralized with hydrochloric acid to a ph value of 1~2. After standing, the lower viscous substance is heated to remove m-cresol. After drying, the finished m-cresol purple is obtained. |
