fluoresceine
Fluorescein is a synthetic organic compound available as a dark orange/red powder that is soluble in water and alcohol. It is widely used as a fluorescent tracer for many applications. In medicine, it is often used in diagnostic procedures, for example, to detect corneal and vascular leaks. Fluorescein has the characteristic of being able to absorb light in the blue region of the spectrum and then re-emit that light in the green region, which makes it appear fluorescent yellow-green under ultraviolet light. It is chemically known as C20H12O5.
