EDTA, is a chelating agent with many applications in molecular biology. EDTA is often used in buffers as a metal ion inhibitor to maintain the stability and integrity of biological samples. EDTA binds to metal cations by forming a stable octahedral complex.

Water hardness can be measured using a procedure known as complexometric titration by adding a known concentration of the chelating agent EDTA through a burette to a sample containing an unknown amount of calcium and magnesium ions. EDTA reacts and captures these metal ions creating a larger metal complex.
Thymol blue is used as a pH indicator. It is insoluble in water but soluble in alcohol and dilute alkali solutions. It transit from red to yellow at pH 1.2–2.8 and from yellow to blue at pH 8.0–9.6. It is usually a component of Universal indicator.
