Description

Orange-red powder; odorless. Hygroscopic,soluble in water; sparingly soluble inalcohol.


Fluorescein sodium is an orange-red to dark red powder. Water-soluble form of fluorescein. Odorless and almost tasteless. pH (5% solution) 7.8. May be sensitive to prolonged exposure to light and to heat.


Moderately toxic by intraperitoneal route. Mildly toxic by ingestion. Human systemic effects by intravenous route: arrhythmias, eye hemorrhage, nausea or vomiting. Experimental reproductive effects. Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Na2O.
