What is the ?max 199583, Lissamine™ Green B, in water?
The ?max in water is 633 nm.
What is the solubility of Product 199583, Lissamine™ Green B?
Lissamine Green B is soluble in water up to 0.1% in water. Other sources have stated solubility for some lots can approach 4%. Solubility in ethanol is 3 mg/mL, although this is not tested by Sigma Aldrich on a lot to lot basis. Lissamine Green B has also been reported to be soluble in Cellosolve, and in ethylene glycol.
What are possible uses for Product 199583, Lissamine™ Green B?
The Sigma Aldrich Handbook of Stains, Dyes and Indicators advises that Lissamine Green B has been substituted for Fast Green FCF without any real advantage. Lillie found it performed well as a collagen stain in Masson's trichrome and as a counter stain in the Van Gieson method. However, it was inferior when used as a component in Van Gieson's Trichrome Stain. See also Clark G, Staining Procedures, 4th Edition. (Williams & Wilkins, Baltimore, 1981), p. 120 for the Lillie modification of Masson's trichrome method. This material is used in the determination of chlorine dioxide in solution in EPA Method 32.
Has Product 199583, Lissamine™ Green B, been used for industrial applications?
The Sigma Aldrich Handbook of Stains, Dyes and Indicators states Lissamine Green B has been used to dye wool, silk (from a sulfuric acid bath), to print wool and silk directly and to coat paper, dye leather and surface stain wood.
