Universal Indicator Sol Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Universal Indicator Sol (Product Code: SCL444/0131) is a universal indicator solution used to estimate by colour how acidic or alkaline a sample is in school biology and chemistry practicals. Teachers choose it over litmus because it passes through a whole spectrum of colours rather than two, and it comes as a 500 ml pack of analytical reagent grade with an MSDS. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for buyers sourcing universal indicator solution in India.

What Is Universal Indicator Solution Used For?

In biology practicals the indicator turns up in more places than students expect. Soil shaken with distilled water and allowed to settle is tested for acidity before a plant-growth project, and breathing gently through a straw into water containing the indicator shows the colour shifting towards acid as carbon dioxide dissolves. In digestion experiments it tracks the fall in pH as lipase breaks milk fat down into fatty acids, and environmental studies use it to survey pond, tap and rain water.

Add only a few drops to a colourless or lightly coloured sample, mix, and compare the colour straight away with a universal indicator colour chart under white light. Strongly coloured samples such as plant extracts can mask the result, so pH paper or a pH meter is the better choice there. Teachers who need a number rather than a colour band keep a meter alongside, and the solution fits naturally into an acid base indicator kit for the school laboratory.

Tools that complement a universal indicator in pH work:

• Ph Paper — a quick strip test for samples too coloured for the liquid indicator.
• Digital Ph Meter (Table Top) — gives a numerical reading when a colour estimate is not precise enough.
• Litmus Sol Red/Blue — the simpler acid/alkali indicator for introductory lessons.
• Phenol Red (Test Of Urea In Urine) — a single indicator for the urease test and carbon dioxide experiments.
• Dropper — adds the indicator drop by drop so the colour is not diluted out.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much indicator is in one pack of Universal Indicator Sol?
Each pack of Universal Indicator Sol holds 500 ml of analytical reagent grade solution and is supplied with an MSDS. Since only a few drops are needed for each test, a single pack can serve many practical classes, depending on how the stock is dispensed.

Is a colour chart included with Universal Indicator Sol?
The listing for Universal Indicator Sol does not state that a colour chart is included, so please confirm this with us through the contact page before ordering. We will not promise an accessory that we cannot confirm for your consignment.

How is Universal Indicator Sol different from litmus?
Litmus only shows whether a sample is acidic or alkaline. Universal Indicator Sol changes through a sequence of colours across the pH scale, so students can also estimate how strongly acidic or alkaline the sample is, which makes it more useful for soil, water and enzyme experiments.

What is the shelf life of Universal Indicator Sol?
Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so no fixed period is quoted for Universal Indicator Sol. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, keep the bottle closed and out of sunlight, and check the stock against a known buffer if its colour changes.

Is Universal Indicator Sol flammable?
Some universal indicator solutions contain alcohol, so treat Universal Indicator Sol as potentially flammable until you have read the MSDS supplied with the pack. The MSDS gives the exact hazard information; as a precaution, keep the bottle away from flames and heat sources.

Who supplies Universal Indicator Sol?
Universal Indicator Sol is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), based in Ambala, Haryana, India. The company provides the indicator alongside pH paper, pH meters and other reagents, and it quotes schools, colleges, dealers and export buyers in India and international markets.
