| | Azure B Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | green crystalline powder | | Uses | Used for staining reticulocytes. Azure B is used for preparing azure eosin stains for blood smears. | | Uses | Biological stain. | | Uses | Azure B is used for staining semi-thin sections of plant tissue. This dye is also useful in the NCCLS method for blood smears and Lillie's modified Nocht's method for paraffin sections. | | 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. | | Purification Methods | Azure B has been twice recrystallised from H2O and dried at 100o/1hour in an oven.
