Cresol red for PCR loading buffer...

[Wolfgang Schechinger]

As you have hydrophilic conditions, you'll probably be better off with the
salt. As CR is a pretty old compound, you might find some solubility data in
the Beilstein or the CRC handbook of organic chemicals, Or simply, check
Sigma (they should sell it) online for a data sheet and solubility data.

Please tell us

a) what makes Cresol red so interesting (never heard about it, but I am
really curious!)

b) if there is a reference

c) How you dissolved it in the end!

Best regards!
