Aluminon is widely used as a reagent in analytical chemistry for the detection and quantification of aluminum ions in various samples. It forms a distinct red-colored complex with aluminum, making it useful in colorimetric assays to measure aluminum concentrations in water, biological fluids, and industrial materials. In environmental monitoring, it helps assess aluminum pollution in water bodies, ensuring compliance with safety standards. Additionally, it is employed in histology to stain aluminum deposits in tissues, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions related to aluminum toxicity. Its specificity and sensitivity make it a valuable tool in both research and quality control processes.
