pH 3.0 (yellow) - pH 4.6 (blue) Ready-to-use reagent. Prepared with ACS reagent grade Bromophenol Blue and high purity water. Suitable for laboratory use.

Product Overview

Bromophenol Blue is a versatile dye used both as a pH indicator and as a tracking dye in electrophoresis applications. It changes color from yellow to blue over the pH range of 3.0 to 4.6, making it suitable for monitoring strong acid titrations and low-pH environments.

In molecular biology, Bromophenol Blue is widely used as a loading dye to visually track the progress of nucleic acid or protein migration during gel electrophoresis. Its low molecular weight allows it to migrate ahead of most biomolecules, giving researchers a visual cue for run completion without affecting results.

Key Features:

  • pH transition range: 3.0 (yellow) to 4.6 (blue)
  • Functions as both a pH indicator and electrophoresis tracking dye
  • Available in powder or solution form for easy use
  • Compatible with DNA/RNA and protein gel systems
  • Stable and non-interfering with most analytical methods

Applications:

  • Acid-base titrations in analytical chemistry
  • Gel electrophoresis for nucleic acid or protein analysis
  • Visual marker for sample loading and migration tracking
  • Teaching tool for chemistry and molecular biology education

Bromophenol Blue is a staple in laboratories due to its dual functionality, reliability, and clear color transitions, making it an essential tool for both analytical and molecular workflows.
