- Extra Details:
- Phenol red is used as a pH indicator. A solution of phenol red will have a yellow color at a pH of 6.4 or below and a red color at a pH of 8.2 and above. The sodium salt of phenol red is used widely in culture media to identify changes from neutral to acidic pH values. It is typically used in cell culture media at 11mg/L. Acid end products from carbohydrate fermentation lower the pH causing the pH indicator phenol red to turn from red (alkaline) to yellow (acid).
