Abstract
A strategy for the design of simple colorimetric assays to follow any process that involves the net generation or consumption of hydrogen ions in aqueous solutions over the pH range of 3-10 is described. This procedure relies upon the measurement of the change in absorption when a weakly or moderately buffered solution of a pH indicator is subjected to a small change in pH. Buffers and indicators are chosen with closely matching pKa values. The versatility of this type of assay technique is illustrated using three examples.Entities:
