Product description
Nile blue (or Nile blue A) is a stain used in biology and histology. It may be used with live or fixed cells, and imparts a blue colour to cell nuclei.
It may also be used in conjunction with fluorescence microscopy to stain for the presence of polyhydroxybutyrate granules in prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells. Boiling a solution of Nile blue with sulfuric acid produces Nile red (Nile blue oxazone).

Applications
Nile Blue A (Nile blue sulfate) is used to differentiate melanins and lipofuscins. It is also useful for staining fats and preparation of an amperometric glucose sensor.
Dosage
cystine orally as the sodium salt in doses of 1.0 to 4.0 grams for three
Also known as
NILE BLUE SULPHATE
Notes
Nile red and Nile blue are highly fluorescent and photostable organic dyes from the benzo[a]phenoxazine family. They have been used as histological stains for imaging lysosomes and lipids in vitro. The dyes’ high quantum yields and solvent-dependent optical properties make them ideal scaffolds for the development of pH probes and local polarity indicators.
