  • Primary ApplicationThe main application is as an indicator for complexometric titrations: 
    • Used specifically for the determination of calcium in the presence of magnesium ions at a high pH (around pH 12).
    • The indicator changes color from blue (free indicator) to pink/red when it complexes with calcium ions; the color reverts to blue at the endpoint of the EDTA titration when all calcium has been bound by EDTA.
