Food Colouring Red (Product Code: SLE/CH/202) is a red colouring liquid for classroom experiments where students need to watch a liquid spread, rise or separate into layers. It is not for food use and is sold for educational purposes only. Biology and general science teachers rely on it for diffusion and plant transport practicals, and it is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, alongside school biology lab equipment in India.

Typical Use

For a diffusion comparison, students add one drop of red colouring to a beaker of cold water and one to a beaker of warm water, then time how long each takes to spread evenly; the faster spread in warm water links particle movement to temperature. In plant biology lessons, a leafy stem or white flower stood in red-tinted water shows the route water takes up the stem, and a thin cross-section cut after a few hours reveals coloured vascular tissue. Red also helps in density work, where one of several salt or sugar solutions is tinted so that the layers stand out in a measuring cylinder.

Stir with a glass rod rather than shaking, so the colour mixes without trapping bubbles. Label every working solution clearly and keep the stock bottle away from food areas. A department buying from a lab consumables supplier in India can share one 500ml pack between several classes, because only small amounts are needed for each experiment.

Which experiments suit red rather than blue?
Red shows up well in plant stems and against green leaves, so many teachers choose it for water transport work, while either colour works for diffusion and density demonstrations.

How should the colouring be stored?
Keep the bottle closed, upright and labelled, in a cool cupboard away from direct sunlight and away from any food preparation area.
