Gentiana Violet / Methyl Violet with Acetic Acid, aqueous
Gentian violet / Methyl violet acidified, aqueous is a solution consisting of distilled water, acetic acid 99% and the dye Gentian violet B / Methyl violet (C.I.: 42555) (C₂₅H₃₀N₃-Cl). It is used in medical diagnostics, histology and scientific laboratories.
The dye gentian violet is a heterocyclic triphenylmethane derivative whose solution is acidified by the addition of acetic acid. The staining is based on Van der Waals interactions and electrostatic attraction between dye and target structures.
In histology, gentian violet / methyl violet acidified, aqueous is used for staining cellular components and for Gram-positive bacterial staining. In medical diagnostics, it is a component of skin disinfectants for the prevention and treatment of skin infections. In scientific laboratories, the solution is used to blacken and contrast specimens for light and fluorescence microscopy.
