Celestine blue (CAS No. 1562-90-9) is provided in a black to dark-grey to very dark brown powder form. It is an artificial sulfonated copper phthalocyanine dye and its molecular formula is C17H18ClN3O4 and its molecular weight is 363.8. Celestine Blue is also called Mordant Blue 14 and is commonly used in histology as a substitute of hematoxylin in H-E staining methods. It is particularly useful in procedures that use strong acid stains due to its insensitivity to acidic staining agents. This dye has its maximum absorption at 642nm and is characterized by bright blue staining properties.

Applications

• Hematoxylin Substitute: Serves as an excellent substitute for hematoxylin in H-E staining, enhancing nuclear contrast and clarity for detailed tissue examination.
• Nuclear Staining: Used with alum hematoxylin to achieve intensified nuclear staining with excellent acid fastness against strong acidic dyes.
• Routine Histological Staining: Suitable for routine staining of fixed tissue sections, delivering reproducible and reliable staining results.
• Electroactive Indicator: Utilized as an emerging electroactive indicator in DNA biosensor applications, supporting molecular and bioanalytical research.

Key features

• Effective Hematoxylin Replacement: Provides superior nuclear staining quality in H-E procedures.
• Resistant to Low pH Conditions: Maintains staining integrity in acidic environments, unlike traditional hematoxylin.
• Sharp and Clear Nuclear Definition: Produces excellent nuclear detail for advanced tissue analysis.
• Accurate and Consistent Performance: Ensures reliable results, making it ideal for routine laboratory use.
