Lacmoid, with the CAS number 33869-21-5, is a chemical compound primarily used as a pH indicator in various applications, particularly in analytical chemistry and biological research. It is known for its ability to change color in response to different pH levels, typically transitioning from yellow in acidic conditions to blue in alkaline environments. This property makes lacmoid valuable for visualizing pH changes in solutions. The compound is a synthetic dye derived from the oxidation of certain organic compounds and is often utilized in titrations and other laboratory procedures where pH monitoring is essential. Lacmoid is generally considered to be stable under normal conditions, but like many dyes, it may be sensitive to light and heat, which can affect its performance. Safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and disposal guidelines, as with any chemical substance. Overall, lacmoid serves as an important tool in both educational and professional settings for pH determination.

Lacmoid is a galacturonidase that hydrolyzes the terminal galacturonic acid residues from the non-reducing ends of the polysaccharide chains in glycosaminoglycans. This enzyme is isolated from wild-type strain of Streptococcus equisimilis and has been shown to be effective against bacteria by cleaving the saccharides on their surface, which causes them to lose their ability to bind to cells. Lacmoid also has low energy requirements, which allows it to act at room temperature and even at low pH levels. This enzyme has been used for the analysis of urine samples for bacterial infections, as well as for other applications such as basic dyes, cell nuclei, antimicrobial peptides, and radiation. It is also used in primary cells to measure potassium dichromate.
