Methylene Blue Anhydrous CAS: 61-73-4 | MF: C16H18N3SCl | MW: 319.85, Buy Histological Stains & Dyes for Histology, Cytology, Microbiology, Hematology & Biology Lab from TriStains at Chemical World.
Methylene Blue Anhydrous is a synthetic dye of phenothiazine with the molecular equation C16H18N3SCl. It normally occurs in the form of a purplish or deep blue crystalline solid and is very soluble in water and various organic solvents. This heterocyclic aromatic compound is found as an odorless dark green crystal powder that changes to blue when it is hydrated. As an anhydrous type, there is no water in it; therefore, there is greater dye concentration, purity, and better performance.
Applications
- Usually used as a staining reagent in microscopy, histology, and cytology, and to determine oxidation-reduction changes and diagnostic reagent in a variety of laboratory tests.
- Acts as a photoactive phenothiazine dye with anti-guanylate cyclase and anti-nitric oxide synthase activity, and serves as an inhibitor of photoactive dyes.
Key features
- High-Quality Performance: Provides re-producible and consistent staining with repeated applications.
- Excellent Stability: Has a high colour intensity and is chemically stable with little degradation.
- Economical Choice: Exceptional value that does not affect the purity, accuracy and staining efficacy.
