How to Find a Lot/Batch Number for COA
Lot and Batch Numbers can be found on a product's label following the words 'Lot' or 'Batch'.
For a lot number such as TO09019TO, enter it as 09019TO (without the first two letters 'TO').
For a lot number with a filling-code such as 05427ES-021, enter it as 05427ES (without the filling-code '-021').
For a lot number with a filling-code such as STBB0728K9, enter it as STBB0728 without the filling-code 'K9'.
In some cases, a COA may not be available online. If your search was unable to find the COA you can request one.
If available for a given product, the recommended re-test date or the expiration date can be found on the Certificate of Analysis.
The lot specific COA document can be found by entering the lot number above under the "Documents" section.
The product is soluble in water at 50 mg/mL, EGME at 60 mg/mL and ethanol at 70 mg/mL. EGME is an abbreviation for ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, also known as 2-methoxyethanol or methyl cellosolve.
Probably its most important application is as an in vitro diagnostic bacteriology, cytology, hematology, and histology stain. Methylene Blue serves as a precursor to the Methylene Azures and as a component of the various Ramanowsky-type blood stains (Wright, Leishman, Giemsa and others). While pure Methylene Blue is not a good nuclear stain, it readily undergoes oxidative demethylation to form the various Methylene Azures, which are good nuclear stains.
Dye content is determined spectrophotometrically by noting the dye's absorbance peak, which is typically near 665 nm, or by calculating the ratio of the absorbances at 650 nm over 680 nm. (The dye exhibits smaller peaks at approximately 292 and 246 nm).

Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) is principally found stored in three main cell types - i) serotonergic neurons in the CNS and in the intestinal myenteric plexus, ii) enterochromaffin cells in the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract, and iii) in blood platelets. Metabolism of serotonin is carried out primarily by the outer mitochondrial membrane enzyme monoamine oxidase (MAO), which occurs as two molecular subtypes called MAO-A and MAO-B.
