Go with the flow: The perfect dye tracing solution

Uranine AP from EMD – fluorescent dye for the determination of water behavior.

Since the world’s first dye trace in 1877, when Uranine was used to trace water vanishing in sinkholes in the upper Danube and reappearing 12 km away in the Aach spring, this powerful fluorescent dye has remained among the best and most used tracer dyes for determining water flow.

Uranine AP from EMD – your advantages  

• Economy of use
• Highest comfort
• Biologically harmless

Uranine’s excellent tracing capabilities are due to a variety of reasons: Uranine AP from EMD is easily soluble and stable in water, has extremely low toxicity, and it is highly detectable even at low concentrations thanks to its fluorescence – in short, Uranine AP is the perfect solution for your water tracing requirements.

Save costs: Uranine AP is economical to use

Uranine AP has a tremendous coloring power in aqueous solutions. For example, around 1 g is sufficient to color 100 m³ of water (1:100 million). If you add 10 g of Uranine AP to 100 m³ of water (1:10 million), correct visual detection should be possible even in unfavorable cases. This high detectability, together with our competitive pricing, ensures a very economical use.Uranine AP has a tremendous coloring power in aqueous solutions.
