  • Initial cultivation experiments with neutral red
    • Cultivation of the E. coli strain with porines (attempt 1) and wildtyp as control (attempt 2) in LB-medium with 100 µM neutral red
    • pH was set up at 8.75
    • Results
      • Attempt 1 turned red (pH = 7.495)
      • Attempt 2 remained yellow
  • Reduction of neutral red
    • Reducing agent: sodium dithionite
      • Red solution got reduced and turned colorless
      • Got oxidised by air again afterwards
    • Oxidizing agent: hydrogen peroxide
      • Red solution stayed red
      • Yellow solution stayed yellow
    • Conclusion: the color of the solution depends on the pH
