LabChem® Methylene Blue 1% IN Ethanol

LabChem® METHYLENE BLUE 1% IN ETHANOL is a ready-to-use alcoholic solution of methylene blue, a thiazine dye widely used throughout microbiology and clinical laboratory work. Providing the dye pre-dissolved at a consistent concentration removes the need for in-house preparation and weighing of the solid dye. An alcoholic solvent is preferred for certain staining protocols requiring rapid drying or reduced water content.

It is commonly used as a simple bacterial stain for microscopy and as a general-purpose staining reagent in clinical and microbiology laboratories. Its consistent, ready-mixed formulation supports reproducible staining results across laboratories. This reagent should be handled, stored, and used according to established laboratory safety procedures and the manufacturer's instructions.
