Product Overview & Quality

Product Name: Bromocresol green (BCG)
Brand: Kemaus (Product Code: KA-2327)
Grade: Laboratory Grade (Lab Grade). Manufactured under Kemaus standards to ensure reliable, high, and consistent performance. It offers sharp color transitions, perfect for general educational experiments, biochemistry research, and routine industrial testing.
Physical Properties: Odorless, off-white, light brown, or brick-red fine crystalline powder.
Visual Transition: Changes from yellow at pH 3.8 to blue-green at pH 5.4.
Key Use: Heavily utilized as a pH indicator for acid-base titrations with endpoints in the mildly acidic range. Commonly used in clinical biochemistry for the colorimetric determination of serum albumin levels. Also acts as a tracking dye in gel electrophoresis for DNA or protein separation, and as a pH visual tracker in microbial culture media formulations.

Safety & Hazards

Classification: Not classified as a severe hazardous substance under GHS regulations, but acts as a mild mechanical and physical irritant.
Health Risks: Direct eye or skin contact with dust may cause minor, temporary irritation or redness. Inhalation of fine dust may cause mild respiratory tract discomfort. As a concentrated dye material, it will intensely stain skin and clothing upon contact.
