Product Description Product DescriptionBasic InformationProduct Name: Methylene BlueOther Aliases: Methylthioninium Chloride, Swiss Blue, Basic Blue 9CAS Number: 61-73-4; 7220-79-3Molecular Formula: C16H18ClN3S; C16H18ClN3S.3H2O (trihydrate)Molecular Weight: 319.85200 ; 373.90 g/mol (trihydrate)Physical PropertiesAppearance:Anhydrous form: Dark green crystalline powder with metallic luster.Trihydrate form: Bright blue crystalline powder.Solubility:Highly soluble in water (aqueous solution is blue), soluble in ethanol, slightly soluble in acetone.Melting Point: 190°C (decomposes).Hygroscopicity: The trihydrate easily loses water of crystallization in dry air.Chemical PropertiesAcid-Base Character: Exhibits basicity and forms salts with acids.Redox Properties:Exists in an oxidized form (blue) and a reduced form (colorless leucomethylene blue), making it a common redox indicator.The reduced form can be re-oxidized to blue by oxidants like oxygen or iron ions.Coordination Ability: Nitrogen and sulfur atoms in the molecule act as ligands to form complexes with metal ions.ApplicationsMedical FieldAntidote:Treats cyanide poisoning (used with sodium thiosulfate), promoting conversion of cyanide to non-toxic thiocyanate.Alleviates methemoglobinemia (e.g., from nitrite poisoning) by reducing methemoglobin to normal hemoglobin.Topical Antiseptic: Dilute solutions disinfect wounds and the urinary tract.Diagnostic Aid: Stains the urinary tract during cystoscopy or serves as a vital stain in bacteriology.Biology & Laboratory UseStaining Agent:Stains bacteria and cells (e.g., mitochondria in plant and animal cells), differentiating live cells (resistant to staining) from dead ones.Acts as an indicator for starch detection (forms a blue complex with iodine).Redox Indicator: Indicates the endpoint of redox titrations.Industrial & Other FieldsTextile Dyeing: Dyes cotton, linen, silk, etc., with vivid blue color.Aquaculture: Controls parasitic diseases (e.g., ichthyophthiriasis) in fish or disinfects water bodies.Chemical Synthesis: Serves as an intermediate for drug or organic compound synthesis.Safety ConsiderationsHealth HazardsExposure Risks:Skin contact: May cause irritation or allergic reactions (redness, itching).Eye contact: Irritates eyes, leading to redness and pain.Inhalation: Dust irritates the respiratory tract, causing cough and dyspnea.Ingestion: May lead to nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain; large doses can affect the central nervous system.Environmental & StorageEnvironmental Impact: Highly concentrated solutions are toxic to aquatic life; avoid improper discharge.Storage Conditions:Store sealed in a cool, dry place, away from oxidants and strong acids.Keep away from light to prevent decomposition.First AidSkin/eye contact: Flush with plenty of water; seek medical help if irritation persists.Inhalation: Move to fresh air; provide oxygen if breathing is difficult.Ingestion: Rinse mouth, induce vomiting with warm water, and seek medical attention.Additional NotesMedical dosage must be strictly controlled; overdose may cause methemoglobinemia (opposite to its therapeutic purpose) or other adverse effects.In laboratories, staining efficiency is affected by pH and temperature, requiring condition adjustment for specific needs.Product Parameters Packaging & ShippingLiquid productsDrum of 5kg ,10 kg ,25 kg ,50 kg 200 kg ,250 kg . 1000 kg IBC drum.
