its an indicator for pH. But also a stain apparently hmm cool, never underestimate the power of google.

"Orange-yellow powder used as an acid–base indicator in chemical tests, and as a stain in the preparation of slides of biological material. Its colour changes with pH; below pH 3.1 it is red, above pH 4.4 it is yellow."

technically -->
Sodium (E)-4-((4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)diazenyl)benzenesulfonate

Anything else?
-AC
