Nile blue is a fluorescent dye that has been used for various applications in research, including staining of biological samples, studying cell function, and detecting various chemical compounds. It is synthesized by reacting a mixture of nitrosodimethylaniline, aniline, and concentrated sulfuric acid. Nile blue exhibits different colors in different pH environments, making it useful for observing changes in acidity within cells. It is also known to be effective in staining nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA, which allows researchers to study the structure and function of these important biomolecules. The dye's fluorescent properties make it suitable for microscopy and imaging techniques, allowing scientists to visualize and analyze biological samples with high sensitivity. Furthermore, nile blue has been explored for its potential therapeutic applications, such as its use in diagnosing and treating certain medical conditions. Its research interest stems from its ability to interact with biological systems in unique ways, providing valuable insights into cellular processes, disease mechanisms, and potential treatment strategies.'

| Status Epilepticus A prolonged seizure or seizures repeated frequently enough to prevent recovery between episodes occurring over a period of 20-30 minutes. The most common subtype is generalized tonic-clonic status epilepticus, a potentially fatal condition associated with neuronal injury and respiratory and metabolic dysfunction. Nonconvulsive forms include petit mal status and complex partial status, which may manifest as behavioral disturbances. Simple partial status epilepticus consists of persistent motor, sensory, or autonomic seizures that do not impair cognition (see also EPILEPSIA PARTIALIS CONTINUA). Subclinical status epilepticus generally refers to seizures occurring in an unresponsive or comatose individual in the absence of overt signs of seizure activity.
