Product Description
Fuchsine base monohydrochloride (rosaniline hydrochloride) is a triphenylmethane-based magenta dye use for acid-fast staining with carbol-fuchsin. It has been widely used in tissue-specific staining of biological and coloring several materials including orlon, cotton, leather, paper etc. It is also used to stain collagen, muscle and mitochondria.
Fuchsine base monohydrochloride (CAS 632-99-5), also known as Basic Violet 14 or Magenta, is a triarylmethane dye used as a biological stain and histological reagent. It is a magenta-colored dye widely used in microbiology for staining bacteria (Gram staining, Ziehl-Neelsen staining) and in histology.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Fuchsine base monohydrochloride targets cellular components including nucleic acids, proteins, and cell wall structures through electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. In microbiology, it stains bacterial cell walls and is a key component in the Ziehl-Neelsen stain for acid-fast bacteria.
ln Vitro
C.i. basic violet 14 is a dark green powder. A dye derived from triphenylmethane.
Rosanilin is a hydrochloride that is the monohydrochloride of 4-[(4-aminophenyl)(4-iminocyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene)methyl]-2-methylaniline. One of the major constituents of Basic fuchsin, together with pararosanilin, magenta II and new fuchsin. It has a role as a fluorochrome, a histological dye and a carcinogenic agent. It contains a rosanilin(1+).
Fuchsine base monohydrochloride is a cationic dye that stains acidic cellular components. It is used as a primary stain in the Ziehl-Neelsen method for Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other acid-fast bacteria. It also stains nuclei, mitochondria, and other cellular structures in histological preparations.
ln Vivo
As a histological stain, Fuchsine base monohydrochloride is not evaluated for in vivo therapeutic activity. Its application is in diagnostic pathology and microbiology for the visualization of microorganisms and tissue structures.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro non-cell assays for Fuchsine base monohydrochloride are not enzyme-based. Its use involves staining fixed cells, tissues, or microorganisms on slides. Staining protocols include application of the dye solution, washing, differentiation (e.g., acid-alcohol for Ziehl-Neelsen), and counterstaining, followed by microscopic examination.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Fuchsine base monohydrochloride involve staining cultured cells or microorganisms. Cells are fixed, stained with Fuchsine solution, and examined microscopically. The dye is also used in flow cytometry for DNA content analysis due to its binding to nucleic acids.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies are not performed with Fuchsine base monohydrochloride as it is a diagnostic stain rather than a therapeutic agent. It may be used ex vivo to stain tissue sections from animal studies for histopathological evaluation.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
...Sixty mice were administered 12 mg of a magenta dye dissolved in peanut oil via gavage for 52 weeks (total dose 624 mg). Autopsy revealed that the dye had stained the tissues. Cationic dyes are known to bind to nucleic acids. /Cationic Dyes/ Cationic dyes appear to possess special properties of the nitrogen atom, which is part of the resonance system responsible for color, and appear to have a strong affinity for the carboxyl groups of corneal mucins. /Cationic Dyes/
Fuchsine base monohydrochloride has a molecular weight of 337.85 g/mol and formula C₂₀H₂₀ClN₃. It is soluble in water and alcohol, producing a magenta solution. As a dye, it does not exhibit systemic pharmacokinetics. It should be stored in a cool, dry place protected from light.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Fuchsine base monohydrochloride is considered a hazardous substance. It is a suspected carcinogen and should be handled with appropriate safety precautions, including the use of gloves and fume hoods. It can cause skin and eye irritation. Disposal should follow institutional guidelines for hazardous chemical waste.

Additional Infomation
Basic Violet 14 is a dark green powder, a dye derived from triphenylmethane. Rosanne is the hydrochloride of 4-[(4-aminophenyl)(4-iminocyclohexyl-2,5-diene-1-ethylene)methyl]-2-methylaniline. It is one of the main components of Basic Fuchsin, other main components of which include pararosanne, Fuchsin II, and neofuchsin. It is used as a fluorescent dye, histological dye, and carcinogen. It contains rosanne (1+) ions.
Fuchsine base monohydrochloride is widely used as a biological stain in microbiology (Ziehl-Neelsen stain for acid-fast bacteria, Gram stain) and histology. It is a key component of the Ziehl-Neelsen stain for the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Not approved for therapeutic use. Also known as Basic Violet 14 and Magenta.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.16 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
g/mol

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
