description Product Description
Used as a pH indicator in laboratory settings, particularly in microbiology for the methyl red test to identify bacteria that perform mixed acid fermentation, such as *Escherichia coli*. It is also employed in titrations and analytical chemistry to detect pH changes in the range of 4.4 to 6.2, where it shifts from red to yellow. Additionally, methyl red finds use in dyeing textiles and as a colorant in some industrial processes.
