Composition:methylene blue 0.3 gethanol 30 mlwater 100 ml
Application
Loefflers Methylene Blue stain is used for the identification of diphteria bacilli, since it differentiates the deeply staining metachromatic granules from the pale blue-staining cytoplasm.

General description
Methylene Blue was earlier recognized as a good nuclear stain, the staining solutions are always either aged or alkalized, if not both. More importantly it is an excellent stain for ribonucleic acid, which is the important stainable constituent of bacterial bodies, of lymphocyte and hemoportoal cytoplasm, and of nerve cell tigroid granules. It can also be employed in capsule stain. The capsule stain begins as a negative stain leaving the organisms colorless. The capsule are clearly seen as halo surrounding the bacterial cell. Another staining procedure is performed with nigrosin (Fluka 43925).
