Application

Methylene Blue solution has been used to study structural alterations and p53 immune-expression in rats.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Methylene blue (MB) is a highly recognized histological dye. It plays a vital role in microbiology and pharmacology. It has been employed in staining living organisms and in methemoglobinemia treatment. MB exhibits maximum absorption at 664nm. Exposure to methylene blue leads to various health hazards such as increased heart rate, vomiting, shock, Heinz body formation, cyanosis, jaundice, quadriplegia and tissue necrosis in humans

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is being explored in endoscopy as a tool to extract biochemical information that may improve contrast for early cancer detection in the gastrointestinal tract. Motion artefacts during medical endoscopy have traditionally limited HSI application, however, recent developments
