Product Overview

Dichlorofluorescein is a halogenated derivative of fluorescein, widely used as a redox indicator, fluorescent tracer, and reagent in both analytical chemistry and molecular biology. It is especially valuable in oxidation-reduction titrations, such as the determination of silver via the Fajans method, where it acts as an adsorption indicator by changing color upon complex formation at the equivalence point.

In addition to its redox activity, Dichlorofluorescein exhibits strong green fluorescence under UV or blue light excitation, making it suitable for use as a tracer in flow visualization, environmental dye studies, and various fluorescence-based detection techniques.

Key Features:

• Redox-sensitive dye suitable for titrations and analytical reactions
• Fluorescent properties enable use in tracer and imaging studies
• Detects equivalence point in silver halide precipitation titrations
• Available in powder form or as a prepared solution
• Stable under standard lab storage conditions

Applications:

• Fajans titration for halide determination using silver nitrate
• Fluorescent tracer in hydrology and flow monitoring
• Indicator in redox reactions and adsorption studies
• Research involving dye migration, diffusion, or environmental dispersion

Dichlorofluorescein provides dual functionality as both a redox-sensitive colorimetric indicator and a bright fluorescent tracer, offering precision and versatility across multiple fields of chemical and environmental analysis.
