Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) dyed with bromocresol purple was investigated as a high-dose radiation dosimeter. The absorbance at 417 nm depends linearly on the dose below 50 kGy. The response depends neither on dose rate nor on the irradiation temperature. The

In clinical settings, human serum albumin (HSA) is widely quantitated on the basis of change in the color of bromocresol purple (BCP) bound to HSA. However, the binding sites of BCP on HSA are hitherto unknown. We have identified these
