Description

Transparent triclinic crystals used in a colorimetric reagent to detect trace amounts of Nickel, Copper, Cobalt, or Bismuth (Odegaard et al 2000). Dimethylglyoxime reacts with soluble nickel to produce a bright red precipitate. Copper produces a blue precipitate, cobalt gives a brown, and bismuth forms a bright yellow.
