CI NO 5200 - Introduction
THIONIN is an organic dye with the chemical formula C12H9N4S. It is a crystalline solid with a dark purple to blue color. THIONIN is soluble in water and alcohol and has weak alkalinity.
THIONIN is mainly used as a component of biological stains and bacterial culture media. It can be combined with nucleic acids in cells and tissues for staining biological specimens to help observe and study the characteristics of cells and tissues. In addition, THIONIN can also be used as an antibacterial agent, which can inhibit the growth of some bacteria.
THIONIN is mainly prepared by chemical synthesis and extraction from plants. Chemical synthesis THIONIN is usually synthesized by hydrogenation of a thioether. THIONIN can be extracted from plants by extracting plant tissue, such as leaves and rhizomes, and by purification and crystallization steps.
Regarding the safety information of THIONIN, it is a toxic compound and must comply with safe operating procedures. Exposure to THIONIN may cause irritation to the skin, eyes and respiratory system. Therefore, appropriate personal protective equipment such as lab gloves, goggles and protective masks should be worn when using THIONIN. At the same time, it should be operated in a well-ventilated place and avoid inhalation or ingestion of THIONIN. If exposed or ingested, seek medical attention immediately.
