Brian, et.al.,
It's not a typo or and an error. It's one might call a variant spelling. The Merck Index lists Bromcresol Purple, CAS Number 115-40-2. Below is what Sigma lists with the same CAS number. I've noticed the prefix Brom or Bromo on the name of several dyes. Either way, it's the same thing.

*114375 * *Sigma-Aldrich *


 Bromocresol Purple


   BioReagent, suitable for indicator, Dye content 90 %

Synonym: *5,5?-Dibromo-/o/-cresolsulfonphthalein, Bromcresol purple sultone form

I noticed the discrepancy in spelling too.  I looked online for like 30 minutes, and 
couldn't find anything called "Bromcresol."  Found a lot of vendors selling 
Bromocresol Purple (and Green for that matter).  Best I can figure is that this is a typo 
on CAP's checklist (that's been there for several years now).

Subject: [Histonet] Glassware Cleaning again

Is bromocresol purple the same as bromcresol purple?  The CAP question 
regarding glassware cleaning refers to bromcresol purple, but I ordered a 
powder and it is labeled as bromocresol purple.
