Alcian Blue 8GX Chemical Properties, Uses, Production

Chemical Properties

dark blue powder

Uses

Alcian Blue 8GX is used as a heteroglycan stain for neutral, sulfated and phosphated mucopolysaccharides and glycosaminoglycans in tissues such as cartilage and extracellular matrices.

Uses

Alcian Blue 8GX is widely utilized as a heteroglycan stain for acidic, neutral, sulfated and phosphate polysaccharides and glycosaminoglycans in tissues. It finds application in both light and electron microscopy. It serves as an adhesive to stick glycol methacrylate sections to glass slides. Due to its large aromatic surface, it is used as a coating agent and modifies the property on the surfaces. It acts as a gelling agent for lubricating fluids and is also used in the modification of carbon paste electrode which promotes redox behavior and stability of electrode.

Uses

Alcian blue 8GX is primarily used for demonstrating acid mucopolysaccharides, which it does quite selectively. Alcian Blue 8GX is also suitable for detection of glycoproteins on nitrocellulose and in PAGE gels.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Alcian Blue 8GX is used as a heteroglycan stain for neutral, sulfated and phosphated mucopolysaccharides and glycosaminoglycans in tissues such as cartilage and extracellular matrices.
