Phenolphthalein has been used
for over a century as a laxative, but is now being removed
from the market because of concerns over carcinogenicity.
However, the small amounts usually used in experiments
are harmless.
Phenolphthalein is used in analysis as an acid and alkali
indicator because its solution is brilliant red in alkalies
and is decolorized by acids.
