fluorescein

As a noun fluorescein is

(chemistry) any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations.

As nouns the difference between fluorescent and fluorescein

is that fluorescent is a fluorescent light while fluorescein is any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations.

As an adjective fluorescent

is of or relating to fluorescence.

As nouns the difference between fluorescin and fluorescein

is that fluorescin is a colourless amorphous substance produced by the reduction of fluorescein, and from which the latter may be formed by oxidation while fluorescein is any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations.

As nouns the difference between taxonomy and fluorescein

is that taxonomy is the science or the technique used to make a classification while fluorescein is (chemistry) any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations.

In chemistry terms the difference between fluorescein and uranin

is that fluorescein is any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations while uranin is an alkaline salt of fluorescein, used as a brownish-red dye.

As nouns the difference between fluorescein and fluorophotometry

is that fluorescein is (chemistry) any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations while fluorophotometry is (medicine) diagnostic measurement of the fluorescence in the interior of the eye following intravenous injection of fluorescein.

As nouns the difference between fluorescein and dichlorofluorescein

is that fluorescein is any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations while dichlorofluorescein is a chlorinated derivative of fluorescein formed from dichlorodihydrofluorescein when used as an indicator of peroxynitrite formation.

As nouns the difference between fluorescein and dichlorodihydrofluorescein

is that fluorescein is (chemistry) any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations while dichlorodihydrofluorescein is (organic compound) a reduced chlorinated derivative of fluorescein whose acetate is used as an indicator of peroxynitrite formation, it being oxidized to the fluorescent dichlorofluorescein.

As nouns the difference between fluorescein and calcein

is that fluorescein is any of a class of yellow xanthene dyes which are visible when highly diluted; used forensically to detect traces of blood, and in analytical chemistry as an indicator in silver nitrate titrations while calcein is a fluorescent dye related to fluorescein and having the chemical formula C₃₀H₂₆N₂O₁₃; used in some contexts as a calcium indicator.
