Definition

molecular visual indicator role held by a molecular entity when it is used or planned to be used so that a change in its color indicates the presence, amount, or condition of a particular material entity or quality

Examples

  • Phenol red bearing a molecular color indicator role when its color change indicates pH in cell culture medium; Bromothymol blue bearing a molecular color indicator role when its color change indicates acidity or alkalinity; Resazurin bearing a molecular color indicator role when its color change indicates cellular metabolic activity; Iodine bearing a molecular color indicator role when color formation indicates the presence of starch.
