ACRIDINE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Acridine is an aromatic heterocyclic organic compound with the chemical formula C13H9N. It is a colorless solid that can fluoresce under ultraviolet light. Acridine is used primarily as a precursor in the synthesis of dyes, particularly acridine orange, which is used in biological staining. It also has applications in the pharmaceutical industry as an intermediate in the production of drugs and antiseptics. Acridine is known for its mutagenic properties, so handling it requires strict safety measures to avoid inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact.
