'''Phenol red''' (also known as '''phenolsulfonphthalein''' or '''PSP''') is a ] frequently used in ] laboratories. |
|
|
|
|
|
==Chemical structure and properties== |
|
|
Phenol red exists as a red crystal that is stable in air. Its solubility is 0.77 grams per liter (g/L) in water and 2.9 g/L in ].<ref name=merck>'']'', 11th ed., 7213 Phenolsulfonphtalein</ref> It is a ] with ] = 8.00 at {{convert|20|C}}. |
|
|
|
|
|
A solution of phenol red is used as a ] indicator, often in cell culture. Its color exhibits a gradual transition from yellow (] = 443 nm<ref name="Saha2015">{{cite journal|last1= Saha|first1=U.|last2= Mukherjea|first2=K.

In ]line form, and in solution under very acidic conditions (low pH), the compound exists as a ] as in the structure shown above, with the ] group negatively charged, and the ] group carrying an additional proton. This form is sometimes symbolically written as {{chem|H|2|+|PS|−}} and is orange-red. If the pH is increased (p''K''<sub>a</sub> = 1.2), the proton from the ketone group is lost, resulting in the yellow, negatively charged ion denoted as HPS<sup>−</sup>. At still higher pH (p''K''<sub>a</sub> = 7.7), the ]'s ] loses its proton, resulting in the red ion denoted as PS<sup>2−</sup>.<ref>{{ cite journal | author = Tamura, Z. | author2 = Maeda M. | title = Differences between phthaleins and sulfonphthaleins | journal = Yakugaku Zasshi | date = 1997 | volume = 117 | issue = 10–11 | pages = 764–770 | language = ja | pmid = 9414589 | doi = 10.1248/yakushi1947.117.10-11_764 | doi-access = free }}</ref> |

In several sources, the structure of phenol red is shown with the ] atom being part of a cyclic group, similar to the structure of ].<ref name=merck/><ref>{{ cite web | url = https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/summary/summary.cgi?cid=4766 | title = Phenolsulfonphthalein | work = ] | publisher = NIH }}</ref> However, this cyclic structure could not be confirmed by ].<ref>{{ cite journal | author = Yamaguchi, K. | author2 = Tamura, Z. | author3 = Maeda, M. | title = Molecular Structure of the Zwitterionic Form of Phenolsulfonphthalein | journal = Analytical Sciences | date = 1997 | volume = 13 | issue = 3 | pages = 521–522 | doi = 10.2116/analsci.13.521 | doi-access = free }}</ref> |

== Uses == |

|
|
|
=== Phenolsulfonphthalein test === |
|
|
Phenol red was used by ] and John Geraghty in the '''phenolsulfonphthalein test''' to estimate the overall blood flow through the ] in 1911.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=GERAGHTY |first1=J. T. |last2=ROWNTREE |first2=L. G. |title=The Phenolsulphonephthalein Test for Estimating Renal Function |journal=Journal of the American Medical Association |date=2 September 1911 |volume=LVII |issue=10 |pages=811 |doi=10.1001/jama.1911.04260090033014|url=https://zenodo.org/record/1836345 }}</ref> It was the first test of kidney function and was used for almost a century but is now obsolete. |
|
|
|
|
|
The test is based on the fact that phenol red is excreted almost entirely in the urine. Phenol red solution is administered ]ly; the ] produced is collected. By measuring the amount of phenol red excreted ], kidney function can be determined.<ref>{{ cite encyclopedia | encyclopedia = ] | url = http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-9059617/phenolsulfonphthalein-test | title = Phenolsulfonphthalein Test }}</ref> |

=== Indicator for cell cultures === |
|
|
] |
|
|
|
|
|
Most ] prosper at a near-neutral pH—that is, a pH close to 7. The pH of ] ranges from 7.35 to 7.45, for instance. When ] are grown in ], the medium in which they grow is held close to this physiological pH. A small amount of phenol red added to this growth medium will have a pink-red color under normal conditions. Typically, 15 mg/L are used for cell culture. |
|
|
|
|
|
In the event of problems, waste products produced by dying cells or overgrowth of contaminants will cause a change in pH, leading to a change in indicator color. For example, a culture of relatively slowly dividing ]ian cells can be quickly overgrown by ]l contamination. This usually results in an ]ification of the medium, turning it yellow. Many ]s find this a convenient way to rapidly check on the health of tissue cultures. In addition, the waste products produced by the mammalian cells themselves will slowly decrease the pH, gradually turning the solution orange and then yellow. This color change is an indication that even in the absence of contamination, the medium needs to be replaced (generally, this should be done before the medium has turned completely orange). |
|
|
|
|
|
Since the color of phenol red can interfere with some ] and ] assays, many types of tissue culture media are also available without phenol red. |

=== Estrogen mimic === |

Phenol red is a weak ] mimic, and in cell cultures can enhance the growth of cells that express the estrogen receptor.<ref>{{ cite journal | author = Berthois, Y. | author2 = Katzenellenbogen, J.

=== Use in swimming pool test kits === |
|
|
Phenol red, sometimes labelled with a different name, such as "Guardex Solution #2", is used as a pH indicator in home ] test kits.<ref></ref> |

] can result in the bleaching of the dye in the absence of ] to inhibit the oxidizing chlorine. High levels of ] can convert phenol red to ] (dibromophenolsulfonephthalein, whose lowered ] results in an indicator with a range shifted in the acidic direction – water at pH 6.8 will appear to test at 7.5). Even higher levels of bromine (>20 ppm) can result in the secondary conversion of bromophenol red to ] with an even lower p''K''<sub>a</sub>, erroneously giving the impression that the water has an extremely high pH despite being dangerously low.<ref></ref> |
