Description Research Excerpts Clinical Trials Roles Classes Pathways Study Profile Bioassays Related Drugs Related Conditions Protein Interactions Research Growth Market Indicators

Meldola Blue is a thiazine dye, also known as New Blue R, that exhibits fluorescence and is often used as a stain in microscopy. It is synthesized through a condensation reaction between 3-amino-7-dimethylamino-2-methylphenazathionium chloride and 1-naphthol. This dye is characterized by its ability to bind to nucleic acids and proteins, making it a valuable tool for studying cellular structures and processes. Meldola Blue has also shown potential as a photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy, utilizing light activation to generate reactive oxygen species that can damage cancerous cells. Furthermore, research indicates its potential as a redox probe for investigating intracellular redox status and its role in various biological processes. Its fluorescence properties and ability to interact with biomolecules make it a subject of ongoing research in fields such as cell biology, bioimaging, and drug development.'
