General description

Malachite Green chloride (MG), a neat reference standard, is provided for the analyte detection, food color quality, and safety control of your products! Malachite Green is a low-cost, highly efficient, cationic triphenylmethane dye with high efficacy for treating fungal, bacterial, and parasitic infections. MG is also employed in paper, textile, acrylic industries, and as an anthelmintic agent, food and color additive, medical disinfectant, etc.
Malachite green chloride is a triphenylmethane dye, which generally can find applications in aquaculture and highly effective against fungal infections.

Application

Malachite Green chloride may be used as an analytical standard to investigate its carcinogenic nature in the animal matrix. The techniques, proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H), carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and gas chromatography (GC) are used to confirm the identity of the material and to determine the purity of malachite green chloride.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.
