green crystalline powder | [Uses]
Biological stain. | [Uses]
Used for staining reticulocytes. Azure B is used for preparing azure eosin stains for blood smears. | [Definition]
ChEBI: An organic chloride salt having 3-(dimethylamino)-7-(methylamino)phenothiazin-5-ium as the counterion. It is used in making azure eosin stains for blood smear staining and is an active metabolite of methylene blue. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Azure B is a cationic dye. It is part of the Romanowsky stain, which is used for staining of blood films. It is also used for the localization of nucleic acids and lignin. | [storage]
Store at -20°C | [Purification Methods]
Azure B has been twice recrystallised from H2O and dried at 100o/1hour in an oven. [Beilstein 27 III/IV 5151.] |
