Redox indicator
A redox indicator (also called an oxidation-reduction indicator) is an indicator which undergoes a definite color change at a specific electrode potential.
The requirement for fast and reversible color change means that the oxidation-reduction equilibrium for an indicator redox system needs to be established very quickly. Therefore, only a few classes of organic redox systems can be used for indicator purposes.[1]
There are two common classes of redox indicators:
- metal complexes of phenanthroline and bipyridine. In these systems, the metal changes oxidation state.
- organic redox systems such as Methylene blue. In these systems, a proton participant in the redox reaction. Therefore, sometimes redox indicators are also divided into two general groups: independent or dependent on pH.
The most common redox indicator are organic compounds.

gollark: Anyway, I'm sure it has low enough overhead that you could train a MNIST classifier or something on StupidVM.
gollark: 1991.
gollark: Great!
gollark: I can email you the entire output of our trend cubicuboctahedra, if you like, coral.
gollark: But you should totally have those hardware matrix multipliers. AI is very trendy right now.
